SELF-GENERATED MOTIVATION IS THE FUEL

Business Collaboration, Gamification, Team Building, Social Media, Meeting and Convention. 

Let’s speak about them with NICOLA FAVINI – DG LODOTEL www.logotel.it |@ilnikkio

All the activities you mentioned in the question, or are either content or context or containers for the change processes of a company.

I will use many times the "C" because you know that "C" are the words of the new language: Contacts, Content, Context, Collaboration ..... "Co" is a prefix always used for the more interesting subjects.

We are practicing all these techniques, mixing  and unpacking  them every day to help our clients to make more effective and efficient large transformation projects.

But I can say Business Collaboration is the effective glue of all the other because Gamification is a way to activate the business collaboration, team building is a mode, social media is a tool, a technology, a philosophy for meeting and convention events: today you can’t achieve results if you are not playing around the logic of Business Collaboration.

They all have something in common: technology and/or motivation. How have they evolved over the past 2 years, according to Logotel?

When you find yourself planning an event, a process or an activity of collaboration, technology is now so commodity that should not create a problem but follow the ideas. I lived in the world where technology was enabling. Today's technology follows the ideas. We must not produce more projects, processes or events technology-based. Technology is enabling, it is a tool that makes things happen and now you can do everything at very low cost in super-efficient way. Today, many companies have already internal capability and new generations of people, able to independently manage a lot of things.

Today you have available responsive and liquid platforms with which you can do anything. Open source allows you to create an interface in two days man, which allows you to exchange text messages, @ mail, tweets, everything that you need to be able to connect and communicate with people ..... that (thank goodness!) has learned to use that technology. All those who belong to our targets have a Facebook profile, have posted a photo or played on Instagram: even if they are not techno-natives they are either techno-developed or techno-acquired.
So I have little to say about technology. Instead you have to dwell on motivation.
Motivation is the fuel.

We always thought that motivation was “hetero-generated”, meaning self-generated.

I'll give you an awards……I will make a round of applause……..I'll put you in the middle of a process that encourage you to reach badges... which is cool, but I think the reason is not only that. Obviously I'm not talking about the incentives.
I think motivation is to put people in a position to do well what they want to do. Then motivation becomes very simple, if you think about it.  The reasoning in the logic to achieve individual success: a micro-success as well.
Then, that's fine too to give a pat and grant the applause, but personal success should be the real and central goal.
