Gamified Training with Real-Life Interactions
for Drive-Thru Workforce
A US-based fast-food chain with 350+ outlets across the country used Harbinger’s scenario-based gamification solution to train their staff. The game provided real-life experiences at a drive-thru counter and focused on the following learning objectives:
- Demonstrate the sequence of the drive-thru service
- Recall the guidelines for a WOW service
- Illustrate how to use the H.E.A.T steps to resolve customer complaints
The game had two levels, namely ‘Overview & Practice’ and ‘Practice Only’ and rewarded learners with interesting badges like Time Champ, Hat Trick, Perfection, and Head Set Hero. The gamified training was fun, simple, engaging, and motivating to achieve perfection. It helped the workforce execute the brand standards at a higher level.
