These games require employees to help each other, encouraging teamwork. Thus, it is possible to establish an integrated and pleasant organizational environment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As they encourage cooperation within the participating teams, collective strength is the decisive factor in winning this type of game. In addition, they also help participants to see that small tasks can lead to a great achievement.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"Competitive_Games\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Competitive Games<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They are games with individual goals, in which a single person is responsible for reaching the final goal and, of course, the gain is individual.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If applied correctly, they can be an asset to develop the particular qualities of each component on the team.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A good way to apply this is to turn everyday business goals into competitive games! Assign scores and make a ranking for those who reach the goals. This way, your employees will feel more motivated (after all, nobody likes to be in last place).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With this in mind, Gamefic has developed a people management platform that makes use of an interface with avatars based on the gamification of the work process.

It is a great way to stimulate teamwork, promoting the integration, motivation and engagement of employees.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With Gamefic, managers have access to key performance indicators in real time. Making it much easier to concentrate data and make decisions based on the company&#8217;s results.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remember: applying games in the workplace is important to open a space for reflection on what has been learned and what has changed for employees after participating in these activities.
