Your team at work is playing a game. Well structured games deliver happiness while poorly structured games are not fun to play. This has implications for your team.If the core requirements for happiness at work are not present, you disengage and check out. If the core requirements are there, you automatically experience fun, satisfaction and potentially, a deeply engaged sense of well-being. This session shows how to deliver happiness through the intentional design and implementation of good-game mechanics inside your team.Work is BROKEN when it is not fun to play. In this session, we provide tools for playing an all-new game of engagement and team learning. By injecting good-game mechanics into the structure of work and meetings, you can help your team rapidly learn, have fun, and be more productive.Why a genuine sense of control, progress, belonging and membership matter. Why a clear aim and sense of team purpose is essential. Why Scrum and Kanban are good games. How to use game thinking to improve the culture and morale of your team
