Gamification Goes To Work

From CIO Deloitte Journal

“Gamification can instill challenge, pay-off and new perspective into day-to-day tasks, tapping into the same human instincts that have led to centuries of passionate competition and engagement - our innate desire to learn, to improve ourselves, to overcome obstacles and to win. As business becomes increasingly social, our professional and consumer lives are being built using digital interactions. This momentum can be tapped to augment performance by embedding gaming mechanics into traditional processes. Technology in the workplace can be rewarding, and (gasp) even fun.

The essence of gamification is a new way of thinking, designing and implementing solutions - and it may even force you to start thinking of your employees, partners and suppliers as consumers. Many organizations are already moving to put gamification to work. Move now to secure your place in the winner's circle.”
