NPS Writers Room -- Scenario Development Workshop

The Naval Postgraduate School's (NPS) Naval Warfare Studies Institute (NWSI) and the University of Southern California's Force Writers Room (FWR) present the NPS Writers Room Scenario Development Workshop. Participants in this co-production of NWSI and FWR will be charged with developing a fictional scenario for the 2025 NPS Warfare Innovation Continuum (WIC).

During the workshop, participants will learn tools of narrative fiction used to better convey complex messages, explore topics of key interest to Naval leadership through a new lens, and to envision their research through story. The workshop offers immersive sessions that are designed to ignite creativity and strategic thinking, offering collaborative exercises to brainstorm ideas and refine narrative concepts -- these are insights from professionals who have mastered the fusion of entertainment and military strategy. This is your chance to leave your mark on the future of naval warfare.

Running from July 19-21, 2024, the workshop is limited to government personnel (military and civilian) and is an in-person opportunity only at the Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey, California -- no remote participation available.
