Applied Fiction: A New Hope For Corporate Training Transform Employees into the Heroes They Were Meant to Be

Commercial games are powerful because they let users step into the body of a fictitious hero character – be it a space marine, crowbar-wielding engineer, or mustached plumber – but few realize that corporate training has the potential to take this engagement concept even further, bridging fiction and reality. By leading employees to understand, feel, and believe that they are the heroes of a corporate initiative and applying fictional storytelling liberally, the celebrated and internationally-recognized Applied Fiction methodology has amplified serious games to transform thousands of employees across dozens of training topics into the heroes they were meant to be. This session demonstrates the power of Applied Fiction through a case study of how one of the largest utilities in the nation solved their employee cyber-security compliance engagement problem, and then equips audience members with the essential building blocks to create their own Applied Fiction. This session is led by Christopher Lazzaro and Michael Dockery, MetaMythic game designers and inventors of the Applied Fiction methodology.
