Many employers are looking to boost participation in employee health programs by incorporating emerging game mechanics and strategies. Game techniques — like challenges, rewards, competition and leadership — appeal to the players’ emotions and provide a sense of achievement and pride. If designed properly, game mechanics can be successfully added into workplace wellness programs to amplify results and build engagement and excitement.

Join us tomorrow, Wednesday, February 15^th at 2:00pm ET to hear from experts in both game mechanics and corporate health programs. You’ll see how game techniques can help you reach the ‘end-game’ — lower healthcare costs, along with happier, healthier and more productive employees. Tom Abshire (Senior Vice President, Marketing and Member Engagement at Virgin HealthMiles) and Justin Beck (Chairman and CEO at PerBlue, Inc.) will review:

• The role of game techniques in corporate health programs.
• How game strategies including challenges, incentives and social interaction can boost employee participation in your wellness programs.
• Tips to consider when adding gaming components at your organization.
• How metrics and testing can help you achieve success in your game mechanics strategy.

The event will be hosted by Human Resource Executive and is sponsored by Virgin HealthMiles. Register for the event and join us tomorrow.
