Summary
We all grew up playing games and love to enjoy the nostalgia.
Gamified training in business is all about creating an environment where people learn through friendly competitions.
They can be given ambitious goals and objectives and need to find their way in a game.
With the increased sophistication in smartphone technology and higher internet penetration, people stay connected and play games more than ever before.
Gamification is all about finding the sweet spot between a business goal and the spirit of a team game.
With the help of technology, we can take a game to every relevant employee in the company, at a nominal cost.
As employees learn new skills, behaviors, and ways of solving problems, they further understand the power of these games.
Gamified learning can be applied to almost every business function, be it sales and marketing, product designing, business strategy, inventory management, security or something else.
Whether business leaders are looking for new employees to speed up or helping them add a new skill, such as a second language, gamification can fast track the journey and keep employees engaged.
In the days to come, technologies such as augmented reality and virtual reality will take the experience of gamified training programs to a completely different level.
