NEWARK, N.J., August 27, 2025 (WorkLife) — We’re excited to share that 1Huddle and our CEO, Sam Caucci, were recently featured in WorkLife in an article exploring how science-backed gamification is reshaping workforce training. In the piece, Sam breaks down why traditional training falls short—employees forget up to 70% of what they learn within days—and how 1Huddle’s game-based approach helps organizations combat skills decay, boost engagement, and uncover critical talent insights. From onboarding to upskilling, our platform is proving that short, competitive, science-driven games can deliver lasting performance improvements across industries.

The interview also dives into the bigger mission behind 1Huddle: leveling the playing field for workers who are too often overlooked by outdated training models. Sam shares how gamification rooted in cognitive science—autonomy, belonging, and capability—does more than make learning fun; it creates measurable impact for businesses while giving employees the tools to own their growth. As he puts it, “We don’t give A’s just for showing up to class”—and neither should workforce training.
