says, Here are some of the ways gamification can help engage a community of innovators: 1. People are naturally motivated to participate in innovation, particularly when the change will affect them personally. Being part of the change provides a sense of autonomy; participants feel they are directing the change, rather than being victims of it. 2. The community reinforces the motivation as people feel they are contributing to something larger than themselves. People want to be rewarded for their contributions, but not necessarily with a tangible reward. Rather, participants value the community’s recognition of their contribution and the status that infers upon them. 3. People want to be part of a winning idea. Not all of the ideas that are submitted will be implemented, so people will collaborate to develop the most promising ideas. Innovation games tend to balance competition to select the best ideas with collaboration to develop them.
