Achievement Unlocked: How Gamification Drives Organizational Culture Change

Do you track your steps each day to see if you can hit your goal? Do you count the number of “Likes” associated with a recent LinkedIn post and compare it to others? Or do you just keep track of how many tasks you moved to done on your personal Kanban Board? These are all examples of games we use in our daily lives to influence and change our behaviors (both consciously and subconsciously). If we use games to influence how we think and act as individuals, why not use games to influence how we think and act as organizations? This interactive session explores how gamification in the workplace can positively influence organizational culture change in an Agile Transformation. You will learn how to tap into a person's intrinsic motivation through games to initiate change across an organization. You will learn about different gamification techniques and how to leverage them to initiate the change you are trying to achieve. Pull up a seat and let’s play!
