RT @JohnWLewis: Transcript of today's #innochat on gamification is attached to the end of the framing post: http://innochat.com/innocha... #GWC14
RT @MeganMurray @bhc3 I think it would if most agreed on the why. Inside org, that’s not common #socbizchat >Start small w/ clear objective?
RT @cmswire: Nice to see you @bhc3 - and good point #SocBizChat > Thanks! Just came off #innochat the last hour, saw this one underway.
A1: Does the notion of purposeful use of 'social' get closer to the answering the ROI question? #socbizchat
Thanks all for participating in today's #innochat on gamification. Love the energy and velocity today. Thanks @DrewCM for moderating.
RT @InnovationFixer A4 what is aftermath of the game? Broken bodies or a more motivated workforce? #innochat > Not if you offer variety.
RT @DrewCM: @Renee_Hopkins Oh "extrinsifies" is precious #innochat
I look at the Achievement type of gamification as addressing intrinsic motivation. Maybe Recognition too? #innochat @adhansen @_Mike_Sweet
A4: Start with desired outcomes, understand culture of your community and plan gamification that helps, doesn't hinder. #innochat
RT @InnovationFixer: Or on output. RT @Renee_Hopkins: A4 Risk of splitting focus - too much focus on game, not enough on process. #innochat
A4: I saw case where an org promised a limited # of gift certs for 'most active' contributors. Result? Lots of garbage submitted. #innochat
A4: Gamification negatives: mismatching gamification type to community culture. E.g. competition may demolish participation. #innochat
A3: Powerful elements of gamification for fostering collab: Recognition + highlighting great comments. No cost, high impact. #innochat
A3: I'd apply gamification to prompt collaboration as much as ideation. Ideation = 'star' of innovation. But need diverse feedback #innochat
RT @JohnWLewis: @adhansen @bhc3 @ibogost 2/2 … Tactics without strategy is the noise before defeat. [Possibly (not) Sun Tzu] #innochat
RT @skap5 I wonder about explosion of contests & competitions to enable & accelerate innovation. #innochat > Great in moderation, not excess
A3: My magic wand app of gamification: tying innovation to a mission, with a series of gamification techniques integrated into it. #innochat
A2: @skap5 hit on a great case for gamification beyond points/badges: missions. Wonderful way to energize teams, achievement. #innochat
A2: I think of gamification in 4 categories: Achievement, Recognition, Competition, Valuables. > First 2 are best for long-term. #innochat
RT @pulvereyes: A2: False. Those can be carrots or sticks, but it's about motivating productive behaviors towards personal, team or org goals #innochat
