REDWOOD CITY, CA -- (Marketwired) -- 05/16/13 -- Rajat Paharia, widely recognized as the father of gamification, next week will show business leaders, business analysts and executives attending the IBM Exceptional Web Experience 2013 conference how strategically employing game mechanics can motivate employees to fully engage with IBM Connections.

In a one-hour presentation on Tuesday, May 21, Paharia will describe how the same proven gamification techniques used to attract and keep customers are helping enterprises encourage their employees to work smarter and collaborate better, and motivating social communities to share and participate more.

Paharia is founder and chief product officer of Bunchball, the pioneer and market leader in gamification, and is the author of a forthcoming book from McGraw-Hill: Loyalty 3.0: How to Revolutionize Customer and Employee Engagement with Big Data and Gamification.

In his May 21 talk, Paharia will outline real-life case studies that illustrate how innovative companies are leveraging big data and the tenets of motivational science to employ gamification techniques that result in greater participation, sharing, collaboration, learning and achievement.

"Organizations invested in IBM Connections are interested in creating a more collaborative, responsive and knowledgeable workforce," said Paharia. "But those results are achievable only if employees make a company's social collaboration platform central to their daily workflow. In this special presentation for IBM Connections organizations, we'll look at how enterprises can stimulate the five intrinsic motivators that exist in every person -- the desire to be autonomous, to achieve, to improve, to make a difference, and to connect with others -- in ways that create a collaborative culture of loyal and dedicated IBM Connections users."
