It's time to take psychodramatic methods outside purely therapeutic settings and into the community! Schools can use role-playing for cultivating emotional intelligence. Businesses and organizations can apply these tools to enable their workforce to problem-solve and adapt in a rapidly changing world. And individuals can improve their relationships and their lives. This collection of essays by 24 authors clearly demonstrates how action explorations is working around the world.
Offering a vast repertoire of techniques—such as role-taking, role reversal, role distancing, improvising, amplifying, exaggerating, replaying, and doubling—action explorations provides a framework for practitioners to tackle wide-ranging and complex issues.
