The Modern L&D Toolkit: Where Does Gamification Fit In?
Speaker: Shelley Osborne
Before getting carried away with the gamification hype, it's crucial for L&D professionals to understand that there's more to it than just badges and leaderboards. This session will dive into the innovative ways businesses are using game-based mechanics, aesthetics, and game thinking to affect employees from day one: starting with onboarding and continuing throughout the employee life cycle. The speaker will share the steps you can take to incorporate gamification into L&D programs and initiatives to create engaged and motivated employees, leading to increased productivity and retention. Studies have even shown that when done correctly, gamification can enhance employee motivation by more than 50 percent. This session was recorded at the ATD 2019 TechKnowledge conference in West Palm Beach, Florida.
