Summary
Gamification can also be defined as using game design techniques in a business context or some alternate, nongaming context.
Gamification has long been understood as a powerful approach to tackle social- and health-related behavioral issues, with the objective of changing people's ways of living.
Gamification strategies are ubiquitous in today's business practices and are employed to gain business advantage by attracting and engaging clients, as well as motivating and retaining talent.
A multipronged approach supported by gamification techniques can help revive the economy and motivate the public over an extended period of time.
Gamification techniques have commonly been employed in the e-commerce domain.
Organizational leaders can encourage their isolated workforces to use gamification as an essential tool to stay relaxed and motivated, and thus treat every new challenge at work as a task to be surmounted quickly.
Gamification can also be a great stress-buster and can help calm employees with fun elements.
Gamification can motivate and improve employee engagement to increase efficiency and customer satisfaction and to create fewer customer queries.
Gamification can also save the time senior management invests in performance management and employee evaluations, resulting in better time management and improved productivity.
Gamification can be applied to encourage people to voluntarily practice social distancing and good hygiene.
