CLIENTS                          WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY ABOUT US:

'We were very impressed with the flexibility, preparation and responsiveness to feedback of the P&P actors for our executive assesment centre. I have run assesment centres for many years and the P&P actors were the best I have seen. Thanks you to Lisa and the team for helping us to deliver a very successful event.'

"With 300 partners and 4,000 people delivering services from 14 offices, KPMG is a leading provider of Audit, Tax and Advisory services in Australia.

In several of our Learning & Development programs, KPMG uses professional actors from Peers and Players to play roles in simulated meetings. Peers and Players has been involved with KPMG since 1998 and we draw on a pool of about 15 actors for the various programs.

In each program and for each role the actors have a defined brief which provides the character information and outlines the script the actors should follow during the simulated meeting. KPMG has found that because the actors are well prepared and know their brief well, they are also effective at ad-libbing where appropriate.

In addition to acting out the the role, the actors provide feedback to the participants they interact with, and their feedback has been well received by participants.

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 participats comment that the inclusion of actors is highly beneficial in creating a 'real life' feeling to the exercises."

"I have worked in partnership with Peers & Players since 1997 on numerous
leadership assessment and development events. The corporate actors are of the highest quality and second to none in Australia. I am particularly impressed by their commitment to understanding the organisational context of my clients and the background to the initiatives we are working on.
My own credibility as a facilitator rests on the success of the acting by Peers and Players and I have no hesitation in continuing to draw on their services."

Captivating Audiences

Lisa and her team were quickly able to capture the essence of our client's business objectives and craft a completely unique method of communicating and engaging the audience with their key messages.  With a turn around of two weeks from brief to show they succeeded in engaging the audience's emotions, imagination and intellect and exceeding the communication objectives.

Working with Peers & Players on our recent Performance Leader training seminars was a fantastic experience. They took the time to really grasp what our agenda was and helped us via the role-plays and their great insight to meet these objectives. The actors, Brendon and Sarah, were brilliant - capturing the true nature of the scenarios by being the "difficult" employee ! And pushing and challenging each Performance Leader they interacted with. The role-play was a vital part of our training and helped complete the overall session.
