Interactive elements provide useful evidence in Development events. Whether used in a traditional, assessed setting or as part of a more fluid workshop, the participant has the flexibility to explore concepts, behaviours and processes in a safe environment.
Whether benchmarking your workforce capabilities, nurturing talent, identifying future leaders or honing the skills of the ones you have, roleplay can be a powerful learning tool. Participants can be challenged at levels appropriate for their needs, with the option of feedback from the role-players, sharing with them how the interaction felt.
In assessment mode, challenges can be tailored to each candidate, allowing them to try out alternative methods or behaviours – and in a workshop environment, different styles of roleplay can be used to stretch and challenge, with elements like character-led group discussions, forum theatre, simulations or realplay sessions.
