Business leaders in much of world have sought for a long time to build local, regional and global brands that add significant value to their organizations. Today, in China, we see the same phenomena emerging as Chinese brands move from being local to regional to national and now to global entities.China’s people drive the change. Historically, the people of China generally have been savers rather than spenders. However, as the economy strengthens the Chinese are changing and causing the businesses they buy from to change too. Government policies and initiatives encourage the formerly conservative Chinese consumers to release some of their hard earned money and spend it on goods and services, driving GDP growth.This slow but steady, and now very noticeable, transformation is affecting every business across China. Consumers are learning to buy more products and services for reasons other than price. They’re paying attention to brand....

“ Social Media Marketing Podcast 63, in this episode Michael Brito shares the reasons why your business should become the media.”

I’ll admit — I’ve got mixed feelings about the hype around gamification that’s currently sweeping through world of management and HR. On one hand, it isn’t all hype. It’s easy to see how many people would focus more on accomplishing important tasks at work if they were somehow made more engaging and game-like. I based this solely on the obsessive lengths people go in the pursuit of frequent flier miles. On the other hand, I agree with the notion that gamification will only get people to do what they would already do on their own. In my view, gamification is simply about motivation. And the larger the organization, the harder it is to motivate people at scale. Gamification is a novel, new way to scale motivation efforts in an attempt to boost performance of some kind. Problem is, it’s often difficult to show a connection between gamification and performance. Most evidence you will find is anecdotal. And despite the lack of evidence that gamification improves performance, gamification is not going away.
