Sarah Derriks–de Wit is a Principal Management and Transformation Consultant, a professional individual and team coach, and a Certified Facilitator of the LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® method. She supports organizations, teams, and leaders in strengthening transparency, collaboration, and decision making during Agile transformations and complex change, with a strong focus on group dynamics, psychological safety, and sustainable behavioural change.
Since early 2023, Sarah has specialized in applying the LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® method in the Agile domain. She intentionally combines the LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® method with Scrum, Kanban, SAFe, Lean, and Design Thinking, using extensive Agile knowledge from both theory and practice to design workshops where the method delivers tangible outcomes, not just energy in the room. Clients engage Sarah when they want results that last beyond the session. Participants build and share models that surface assumptions, create shared understanding, and translate insights into clear decisions, agreements, and next step experiments.
Typical themes include team collaboration, vision and strategy alignment, role clarity and decision rights, root causes and impediments, continuous improvement, and making goals and priorities concrete. Through her company, Transforming Bricks, Sarah facilitates LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® method workshops in the Netherlands and internationally, and can be engaged as a facilitator, trainer, or invited speaker. She is the author of The LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® Method for Agile Professionals (2024), translated into English and German, and her second book connecting the LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® method with Lean is expected in 2026.
