Do you know that the number one reason that people leave their job is that they don’t get along with their manager, or co-workers? Our drama based training and coaching gives people a lasting experience of how to have better conversations at work.
Drama based training is interactive and lifts theory off the page. We teach people to communicate effectively at work, with practical coaching, focused on:
Our worldwide team of corporate actors are experts in impact and presence, with business experience and coaching skills.
Poor communication skills lead to a lack of employee engagement. Most staff training doesn’t bring lasting change to how people communicate, so they feel disengaged.
Lack of preparation can lead to confusion, mixed messages and undesirable behavior. Poor leadership has a trickle down effect: creating a lack of trust and collaboration among team members.
Practicing how to lead with vulnerability and courage creates strong leaders who empower their staff and make their stories matter. Inspired managers benefit from knowing how to communicate clearly, empowering their teams, face to face or in virtual meetings.
Happier teams make for increased loyalty and commitment. People who feel trusted contribute more.
Companies that offer comprehensive training programs gain 218% higher income per employee.
Knowing how to understand your clients needs and ‘speak their language’ invites loyalty.
Shared experiential learning creates a bond, fostering support and collaboration among team members.
When people feel safe to approach difficult situations there is trust and engagement across the business.
Leaders who model honesty and vulnerability create a culture of respect and support.
Overall, the involvement of the actors enhances the credibility of the role plays and improves the learning experience for participants. These L&D programs are among KPMG’s most popular programs and in post course evaluations many participants comment that the inclusion of actors is highly beneficial in creating a ‘real life’ feeling to the exercises.

Lisa and her band of actors are brilliant. Starts with great service. Then they create the right actors for the right situation. And then they deliver. Every time.
Dan Umphray, CEO
The actor was professional, friendly and well-prepared. I particularly appreciated his arriving early. Lisa was helpful and prompt to reply with all inquiries.

Peers and Players have been our consistent provider of actors since 1998. … All of our clients have been extremely impressed by the professionalism, consistency and realism of the actors involved…They have a thorough understanding of assessment and development processes, and provide a positive and appropriately challenging experience for participants of all levels. … We continue to appreciate our ongoing partnership with Peers and Players are very happy to recommend them.
We received excellent feedback from the participants of our leadership program whose role played various people in leadership scenarios with actors.
Getting the provider right is critical in my role. Our screening process was robust and other providers did not compare. The actors exceeded expectations in all workshops they participated in which allowed us to deliver business outcomes that both exceeded expectations and reinforced the use of actors and delivered solid return on investing in Peers and Players’ services.
Zoe Cooper-Sharan, Learning Manager and Leadership Development
From someone who has worked with a lot of similar organisations, I highly recommend Peers and Players as a market leader.

Using role-players supplied by Peers and Players, CDAC assesses future SES leaders from within the APS, providing these EL 2 employees the opportunity to evaluate and identify core leadership capabilities through a series of challenging workplace scenarios. Role-players are given a detailed brief for each character containing information about their role, status, the current problematic situation, the context, expected ramifications of their actions and so forth.
Talent Measurement Manager
I have used Peers and Players on a number of occasions and they have consistently provided actors with exceptional acting ability and communication skills. On this occasion the actor was perfect for the client, and delivered a great balance of challenging portrayals of the characters, with supportive and practical feedback.

We love to collaborate with Peers & Players! Their actors are so talented, and they have been so flexible – there’s nothing they can’t do. The role-playing and coaching services they provide for our leadership training has made a big impact on our leader community.
Virginie McLaughlin, HR Program Delivery Manager
We so appreciated the professionalism of the actors and how unique of an experience this was for our team. We received positive feedback from them on the session and feel we were successful in equipping our team to handle conversations where they can appropriately communicate our core capabilities with a number of different stakeholders. Thank you to you and your team!

The office support from P+P was outstanding, working through a weekend across a multitude of time zones to make the client project possible. We would not hesitate to use P+P again!
Damian Welch, Senior Consultant
Our company’s CEO was looking for unique leadership training with his senior executive team – Peers and Players fit the bill!…Storytelling was a key theme the day’s exercises, and how to connect with different audiences. The group had fun, were equally engaged and stretched (literally and figuratively), and continue to weave ‘storytelling’ into their communications throughout the world-wide organization. Thank you Lisa and team!
We have been working with Peers and Players since 2013 and have found them to be professional, helpful, proactive and absolutely reliable on every project. Lisa’s team of actors in Singapore are fantastic, they have always received positive feedback from our clients. They are a pleasure to work with!
