This is Simon Dutton
Co-Editor and Publicist
Simon Dutton, who has been a part of the LSP Magazine since its inception. At first contributing with articles, and creating little stories with photos that illustrate the power of the LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® (LSP) method in everyday situations. In addition to this visual work, Simon started to contribute to the editing process and offered his expertise in the English language. And also there it did not stop him to contribute even more, publishing his Practical Guide on Project management and LSP, the fantastic Pictorial Guide “Growing your Business” and more …
Simon mentions, he enjoys working with words. As an example he shared a story from his career in project management. “I remember a situation with a client where I was responsible for compiling project reports. We did this every Friday, and on Monday, we would be bombarded with questions and comments. We discovered that many project managers struggled with writing clear reports, as it was their least favourite task of the week. They would quickly type out their words without reviewing them for clarity. To address this issue, I wrote a handbook for project managers called “Write, Review, Improve”. We then conducted a one-day training session to help them improve their report writing skills. After two months, we no longer received those Monday morning requests for clarification”.
Writing for the LSP Magazine allows me to once again work with words and review articles where English is not the author’s first language. The challenge here is not just correcting grammar, but also ensuring that we maintain the original structure and intent of the author, even if it originated from a different language or culture.
I invite you to become a member of the LSP Magazine.
