Role play Role play An instance or situation in which one deliberately acts out or assumes a particular character or role.

How it works Role playing is when a group of people act out roles for a particular scenario. For instance: You might train sales people by having two people act out a sale-scenario. One acts as the sales person. The other acts as the customer. This allows trainee sales people to practice their sales techniques. A trainer and/or other trainees may watch the role play and critique it afterwards.
How it works(cont’d) Team role-playing is similar, except that two or more teams actively participate For instance: A software company learns that customers are unhappy with customer support and this is causing a loss of customers. In order to improve customer support, the company decides to use team role playing.
