Abstract:
In this article we motivate how enterprise 2.0 technology and gamification can be used to transform today’s organizations. The notable benefits include higher engagement of employees, productivity enhancements, improvements in efficiency, innovation and community building. We identify the major building blocks of games and outline how enterprises and NGOs apply these principles in real world scenarios.
