Webinar Description: Gamification is an important and powerful strategy for influencing and motivating people in the workplace. Unfortunately, many people think gamification means adding games to training, or letting employees “play” all day.
Using case studies from real-life programs such as Brown University, Amazon, Wyndham Properties, ATB Financial, UBM, and more… you'll learn how and why Gamification works, in what context it’s most effective, and what the limits are to this approach of employee engagement training and talent development. Through hands-on application combined with anecdotal and empirical data, you will experience the good, the bad, and the ugly of gamification strategy design.
