Great internal communication is key to a positive employee experience. It's not just about top-down communication but making sure everyone interacts freely across departments.
Gamification: Making work fun
Gamification adds game-like elements to work to make it more engaging. On an EX platform, it motivates employees to interact and share ideas by earning points and leveling up, just like in a game.
Why it works?
Gamification brings friendly competition, strengthens camaraderie, and makes work more engaging by adding fun challenges.
Key gamification elements
- Points and rewards: Assign points for activities like posting or voting. 
- Levels: Create multiple levels to show progress and keep things exciting. 
- Challenges and quests: Set up tasks or creative quests with rewards for the best ideas. 
- Leaderboards: Display top performers to encourage friendly competition. 
- Badges: Recognize and reward participation to keep employees motivated. 
How does gamification help?
