What is gamification? Is it truly going to help in engagement? What do you need for effective gamification? And most importantly, how is it going to help you? All these are probably questions one would ask when a discussion about incorporating gamification into HR arises. So, let’s look and these questions again. What is Gamification? A term coined by Nick Pelling, gamification is a concept that uses game like strategy or rather game mechanics to improve engagement and solve complex problems at the workplace. How will gamification improve employee engagement? Considering the fact that employee engagement levels are dwindling the world over, gamification could certainly help resurrect engagement. Rajat Paharia, founder of Bunchball, talks about the mechanics of gamification – fast feedback, goals, competition, points, community and collaboration to name a few. Now all these concepts integrated as part of gamification to improve engagement are sure to show some good results. But you might say that all this has always been part of the HR engagement process. Agreed, but over a couple of years, technology and controlled design have made it reliable more than ever. So what do you need for effective gamification?
