A-GAME automatically facilitates round-robin tournaments with single-elimination playoffs culminating in a season-end championship. Attendance, quality, leadership behaviors, CX metrics, balanced score, or other factors serve as the basis for A-GAME scoring. Data from Cloud or on-premise apps, spreadsheets, data warehouses, and more combine seamlessly with metrics generated via Acuity’s integrated performance dashboard, QA, and workflow optimization modules to enable a holistic performance perspective and complete alignment across gamification and all other business processes and strategies.
The A-GAME Xtreme option expands gamification beyond the front-lines, enabling senior managers and other employees to draft “fantasy” teams comprised of agents from across the entire contact center operation. Xtreme teams compete head-to-head in regular-season matchups and for post-season division titles and league championships.
A-GAME transforms day-to-day work routines into engaging, collaborative, and productive experiences. It raises the bar on self-awareness and accountability, strengthens teams and organizations, boosts management effectiveness and capacity, and maximizes the value of systems and data as it attacks head-on employee turnover, absenteeism, and attitude challenges.
