Colin Daymude:Bridging the Gap: How to Leverage Gamification and Micro-learning

EdTech has not evolved at the same pace as

productivity tools like marketing automation and

CRMs. And, there is a growing nervousness in L&D

changed much since the adoption of the LMS and

the ability to create videos on demand. Rather than

business impact, the objective of training is course

completion.

Fortunately, technology is catching up and there are

solutions. In this episode Colin and I discuss:

• Are Gamification and Micro-learning merely fads?

• Barriers holding L&D back from fully engaging in

gamification

• Time-tested recommendations for organizations

who want to start with gamification

Disengagement costs real money! A survey from Gallup Inc.

of employees older than 18 years reports that only around

15% say that they feel a high emotional connection with

their employer. 24% even admit that they don’t have any

commitment to their workplace and company.

But what drives people? Each employee in each organization

in each country has different motives. You might be driven

by money, status, burning ambition, power, lifestyle,

sociological character and much, much more.

In this episode, Roman and I explore how you can discover a

way of using game-like behavior to unfold the powerful

engagement of your employees – to truly motivate them.
