The two most effective ways to develop a dynamic character are:

1. **by having the character learn a lesson as the result of events in the narrative** - This allows the character to grow and change in response to their experiences.

2. **by combining a number of different narrative techniques, such as description and reflection** - This approach provides depth to the character's development by showcasing their thoughts, feelings, and growth through various angles.

These methods help create a rich and evolving character that resonates with readers.
