Gamification uses game thinking to encourage team members to meet their goals or accomplish specific tasks. Many organizations now use it to improve training, engage customers and drive innovation.
When used properly, gamification can deliver strong business results and engage your target audience. Unfortunately, most organizations need help to achieve this.
