Chart Your Successful Gamification Strategies Now: Know Where the Pitfalls Will Likely Be

January 16, 2014 at 1PM EST

Gamification is a surging issue and likely to be a major topic of discussion in 2014-15. Simply defined, gamification is the use of game mechanics to drive game-like engagement, action and behavior in non-game processes and it present a new and complex juncture for learning delivery systems, an employee engagement tool for internal audiences, and marketing and customer relations tools for external customers. From one point of view gamification is not new and certain aspects have been around in business processes for decades. What is new is the addition of the digital online environment, real-time analytics, mobility, cloud services and social media platforms to drive the outcomes of the initiatives. Either way CHRO’s should be at the table. Discover how to get gamification right and avoid the major pitfalls. Consider:

January 28, 2014 at 1PM EST

Analysts predict that by 2020, a mere seven years off, the global economy will face a skills gap between available jobs and workers that will mean 85 million medium- and high-skill jobs go unfilled.
