Different Perspectives

We observed three different perspectives regarding how they approach problems and what motivates them.

Practical Vision

This perspective represents employees who tend to manage problems and pain points with practicality and agility in their day-to-day activities. Their intention is not to let problems impact the results and performance.

Motivators

High competition

Recognition through rankings and rewards

Results-oriented

Critical Vision

This group represents employees who are passionate about the company and dedicate themselves entirely to their roles. Consequently, they take a more critical and detailed approach to the company's pain points, demanding faster solutions for the problems.

Motivators

Medium competition

Recognition through means other than rankings

Genuine appreciation

Development focused on results

Curious Vision

Primarily includes individuals who are newly appointed to the position, but not necessarily new to the company. These employees present a practical and critical perspective toward the company and its context but prioritize the pain points related to their onboarding and adaptation to the position.

Solution

Ideation Process

Let's make some ideas

Ideation

The ideation was centered around the creation of the interaction flow of the application process.

This approach allowed us to generate wireframes that captured the desired user experience and system functionality.

Integrations

We planned moments to foster interaction among the participants through social gatherings. The main purpose was to promote recognition, engagement, and motivation within the team.

Individual and Collective Rankings

To engage participants and make their performance clear, we disclosed general performance rankings weekly. Additionally, we created a collective ranking based on geographic regions, where the entire region needed to collaborate to achieve success.


Result Badges

At the end of each theme, participants received badges based on the percentage of completion of their tasks:

- Gold Badge: 100% completion

- Silver Badge: 75% completion

- Bronze Badge: 50% completion

The number of badges was tallied by the team to create collective rankings presented during integrations.

Program Ambassadors

Participants who were highly recognized by their teams were named Ambassadors. This recognition valued their influence within the team and their engagement in the program. Ambassadors received surprise awards (mystery boxes) during integrations.


Mystery Boxes

Mystery boxes were rewards designed to create engagement through curiosity about their contents and their limited availability. These rewards were used to recognize the Ambassadors.

Marketplace

At certain points in the journey, participants could exchange points for limited vouchers to be used in various stores and services.
