Chief Creative Officer at The Game Agency and The Training Arcade - exciting, engaging and educating audiences.
With so many people into gaming, over the past few years, many corporate educators have prioritized game-based training in the workplace.
Nearly 9 out of 10 respondents to one survey said they are happier at work because of game-based training.
Games can make employees less stressed and more motivated, productive and engaged.
What makes game-based training so effective? How can you use it? Let's dive in.
Game-based training is simply more fun than boring lectures.
Game-based training shows how competitive, collaborative or ambitious employees are.
Consider using a partner leading game where one employee is blindfolded and another gives them directions to a predetermined location.
When developing game-based training as a learning and development professional, training manager or HR director, keep personas in mind - but always remember you're training real people.
Best results are achieved when you know the real people you're designing the training for.
