How it worksHow it worksRole 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.
