Gamification and other HR-instruments in Leadership development

The company’s “Ignite Leadership” Game, aligned with its overall employee engagement framework, was created to develop five key skills for leaders: negotiation, communication, time management, change management and problem solving. To date, a total of 70 leaders have completed the gamified leadership program, and 50 employees ended up taking on team leadership roles – that’s 50% higher than had done so through traditional training and coaching methods. Plus, these “graduates” of the Ignite Leadership Game generated 220 new ideas in their roles as leaders, which led to a 40 percent increase in employee satisfaction and helped lower attrition by 30 percent. http://www.forbes.com/sites/jeannemeister/2014/01/06/2014-the-year-social-hr-matters/2/
