Jennifer Privitera, manager of client service for Robinson & Associates, offers the following tip.    

Tip:

"It is obvious that communication is key in affecting improvement and change throughout a casino," Privitera says. "Another way of instituting new channels of communication is by flattening the organizational structure. In 'Firms That Invest in Employees Will Come Out on Top,' John Ballantine writes that this helps avoid division among teams as well as the 'us vs. them' mentality that is often seen in casino environments. In other words, less division means more communication."
