Gamification. It’s the application of game-like elements to any situations or challenges faced in classrooms, businesses or organisations.

Even in human resources (HR), gamification is used as a strategic tool in HR to incorporate fun elements into the recruitment processes, design and gaming contests to understand HR’s ability in dealing with situations and organisational changes to recruit, train and motivate the team better.

Driven primarily by the need to drive greater customer engagement, banks have been seen visibly more actively incorporating gamification by applying game mechanics to increase customer ‘stickiness’ to their products and services.

According to John Brand, for many Asian users however, the idea of gamification is not so much about the competitive rankings or rewards. It’s about the learnings and the journey.

Roshan presented it to his team at Leaderonomics and it wasn’t long before it was put to mischievous use. You see, pranks are part and parcel of the Leaderonomics culture. It is one of the first things employees learn when they join the company – we have an official prank set up for them as part of the orientation process.
