Philipp Busch: The Hackathon - Gamification for Social Good

I met Philipp at the Gamification World Congress in Barcelona recently and saw his presentation on the topic.

In this episode of Gamification Talk Radio we discussed: The Hackathon "Gamification for Social Good" in Ethiopia - Building a gamified App in 4 days

The direction of our show is a little different than usual because today we’re going to explore and hear first-hand how to organize and carry out a Hackathon.

Brains on the Beach - Gamified Co-Creation

“What would happen if we got a dozen or more experienced, talented and turned on OD Professionals together for a weekend to create all new approaches for a real client’s real business issue?”

 

The Answer = Brains on the Beach

In this episode learn more about Brains on the Beach from one of the original founders, James Bishop. Hear about their unique vision, how it works, what gamification adds to the process, and how you can become a Brains on the Beach Consultant!

Brains on the Beach brings together the best coaches, trainers, facilitators, business experts to develop workplace solutions for corporate and NGO clients.

To encourage co-creation between individuals, the experience is gamified. The GamesMaster finds the client for the Brains to focus their energy on a challenge posed to them and sets the rules of engagement.
