What if all workplace cultures were as well-crafted as video games?
Effective workplaces and popular video games have a lot in common.
The things that make employees happier, more motivated, and more
productive leverage the same underlying psychology that makes video
games engaging, but sometimes the lessons for work are easier to
see when presented in the context of play. The Engagement Game is a
leadership and management book that shows how organizational
culture and leadership can be super-charged by applying the same
principles that video game designers apply when creating a new
game. This quick, one-hour read will show you how to do this by
blending industrial-organizational workplace psychology with
insights on good video game design. This will help you become a
better leader, manager, coach, and coworker. You don't have to be a
hardcore gamer to benefit from this book. It is for anyone looking
to create a positive work experience for their team. This book
covers topics including: How games lay out their tasks, goals, and
challenges so that they motivate people to do amazing things The
ways in which games encourage problem solving and growth mindset
Why expanding skills, building self-confidence, and finding
opportunities to innovate feel so natural to those who play a lot
of games How social information is framed in games so as to
engender fruitful competition and cooperation What multiplayer
games can tell us about building cohesive, high-performing teams
How to create shared experiences and values that can craft a great
organizational culture and shared expectations for the right kinds
of behaviorsWhich is all to say that you could learn a lot from
video games about how to be an effective leader and manager. Ready?
Game on.
