Go beyond points, badges, and leaderboards – you’ve heard that for years – and NOW it is time to DO IT!

Why not use all the mechanisms and strategies that make games exciting and addictive to sustainably drive employee engagement, learning, and performance?

Employee disengagement and high turnover rates are real challenges whacking employers on the side of the head and companies in EVERY industry are seeking ways to escape the Great Resignation.

An effective implementation of gamification can help your organization achieve its goals of better engagement and a healthy work environment.

In this webinar, you will learn how we are designing GamiCon Orlando as a fully gamified event so that you can learn how to use gamification realistically to:

• Nourish engagement – reduce churn by ensuring that every employee gets a chance to be a hero and sees a clear path to success each day
• Transform behaviors – recognize employees for actions and outputs that drive business results
• Create a culture of excellence – build and sustain excitement about learning and being a team-player

Interest in gamification has grown significantly in recent years as businesses want to get better engagement rates, improve onboarding, provide innovative learning methods, and retain their most valuable talented people. This interest is reflected in an estimated gamification market growth of 30% over the next 3 years.

Gamification can’t solve all your employee engagement challenges, but it can help boost the way your employees perform their daily activities, promote healthier peer-to-peer interactions, and encourage employees to share their work and ideas.

The 2020s have already seen a global pandemic, economic volatility, natural disasters, and civil and political unrest, testing our human spirit. Now more than ever, it’s imperative for leaders to demonstrate compassion.

But in hard times, leaders need to make hard decisions: delivering negative feedback, disappointing choices, and laying off employees.

How do you do the hard things that come with the responsibility of leadership while bringing out the best in others?

Leadership experts Rasmus Hougaard, (LinkedIn profile) founder and CEO of leadership development and consulting firm Potential Project; and Jacqueline Carter (LinkedIn profile) a partner and North American director of Potential Project; will lead a live HBR webinar about balancing compassion with leadership, wisdom, and effectiveness.

They will discuss:

• Why being a caring person and an effective leader are not mutually exclusive
• How keeping a healthy balance between compassion and leadership can bring out the best in employees
• Why making difficult decisions can be the most compassionate course of action
• Practical tools and advice for leaders at any level

Through their research, Hougaard and Carter have identified examples of successful leadership styles. Although leaders have different approaches of dealing with employees, every effective leader can strike a balance between treating employees with care and making hard choices.

Learn more about how you can take the next steps toward becoming a more effective, compassionate leader.
