Gamification is a Game-Changer for Businesses as they Undergo Digital Transformation to the New Digital Normal

Q2E (Quest to Excel) announced today that they have been awarded their second U.S. Patent in the area of gamification.  This new patent is especially timely as companies are grappling with how to quickly make their digital transformation journeys to the new digital normal.
 
“Digital transformation has been slow to permeate many businesses because it has been driven by leaders as a top-down strategy,” said Q2E Founder Mahesh Rao. “But real transformation only happens when everyone in the organization is engaged and invested, and gamification is an ideal way to do that. Gamification engages both the intellect and emotions and motivates people through rewards and recognition. It is especially effective with remote teams, which is, of course, top of mind for millions of businesses today.”
 
Rao has always believed in the value of gamification as a tool for changing behavior. He applied for his first gamification patent in 2013 and now holds 16 U.S. and International patents overall. This latest patent covers expanded features, including the ability to pull data from third-party applications like CRM, engineering, sales and operations which can then be used in accumulating and calculating points. Managers and administrators can award points based on real-time, meaningful data. The Q2E platform also includes leaderboard capabilities that are automated and customizable and an administration algorithm that makes it easy for managers to change criteria as conditions change.

Case in Point
One of Q2E’s customers has seen dramatic results by using gamification. A few months after implementing Q2E, this Fortune 100 company discovered that employees were much more efficient and effective, producing higher quality work. In fact, they were so motivated by the gamified competition that many were proactively working on goals beyond their normal duties in order to accumulate points.
