What is gamification?
Gamification takes the essence of games — attributes such as fun, play, transparency, design and competition — and applies these to a range of real-world processes inside an organization, including learning & development. The technology research firm Gartner, Inc. predicts gamification will be used in 25 percent of redesigned business processes by 2015, this will grow to more than a $2.8 billion business by 2016, and 70 percent of Global 2000 businesses will be managing at least one "gamified" application or system by 2014.Typically customer service and loyalty programs have been gamified mostly. Employee recognition and rewards is also being gamified by vendors like Work.com
