ADHD

Want your employees as engaged at work as they are when they’re playing video games?

This also applies to creating a gamified work environment for yourself (not just your employees).

My ADHD brain responds super well to well-defined KPIs, quotas, and operating in domains that I can work toward mastery and/or optimization. The roles I've been most successful in had strong elements of gamification (be that internally created or externally imposed).
