The game is, in principle, not its place in the workplace, but things change since the old ladies "addicted" to casinos slot machines based on experts in staff motivation. It is, indeed, from their observation that Brooks Mitchell, a Professor of a University of Wyoming in the United States, was set up with some former students an innovative tool of motivation of employees.

Dubbed "snowfly", this game is based on the multiplication of immediate rewards once an employee reaches the objective assigned him. Of course, it is not to lose his time playing online Solitaire or ladies, in hiding and in his corner, but to use the game as a lever to improve the productivity. The originality of the concept is that this motivation program works as a casino online, and employees, with the blessing of their hierarchy, are encouraged to use their computer as a slot machine.

Result: cost reduction, increase of turnover, more high productivity, followed by any specific training is good to be rewarded. Moreover, by relaxing the professional atmosphere, the game makes people happier at work and reduces absenteeism. Often decried, business games are sometimes considered as the powder of Stardust by some companies and consultants and to know to sort in the plethora of promoted games. However, as serious as Danone, Cisco Systems, Borland Software groups incorporate various forms of games in their process of formation. And FLA Sales & Distributing, a US beverage dispenser that uses the program Snowfly three years, it displays tangible results. Losses on inventories of the group have halved and generated 31,000 in savings (24.240 euros) since the branch list points employees check containers rather twice that one. Same system incentive within the First Interstate Bank, successful results. The establishment, which had custom to offer a trip to Las Vegas at its best seller of credit cards, preferred to use Snowfly, a covered system of behavioural psychology, to allow employees to better the link between expected behavior and reward and enhance productivity.

Each point is worth 1 cent and everyone the teller, truck driver, Manager, telemarketer intermediate mentoring its chances. The success of the program is based on a system of immediate rewards. Customizing rewards makes the difference and the involvement in the set of intermediate coaching ensures the sustainability of the system.

The cost of implementation of the process depends on the size of the company, but its minimum price rises to 10,000 dollars (7.816 euros). At the same time, the online tool decreases administrative burdens, facilitates the monitoring of performance in a playful aspect. The purpose of the organizations that adopt Snowfly is not social. Boost the morale of the team is essential for their conduct and many see an unexpected way to reduce or freeze salaries without encouraging premiums in this game.

Remains that, for some, this system is the only rope incentive. It is not adapted to more creativity or inventiveness. It then pass to more sophisticated methods that can be done also playful to facilitate strategic decision-making and role games. And, above all, the important thing is to know why people play.
