Bagel, Anyone? HR Pro’s Tips to Improve Employee Engagement (Video)

Andrew Botwin explains that “engagement” at Rothstein Kass means employees getting involved. The national accounting firm uses feedback from employee focus groups to make changes that employees can see. He also recommends adding a social element to official functions to keep employees engaged. That can be something as simple as bagels at a morning meeting so that people come a little early and socialize before the meeting starts.

Botwin is part of the panel discussion “Managing Today’s Talent Pipeline: 30 Ideas in 30 Minutes” at the 2011 Advanced Employment Issues Symposium (AEIS) this week in Las Vegas. The following video clip below is from the same panel discussion during the AEIS conference held in Nashville, Tennessee, in October.

He is a principal in Rothstein Kass’ Roseland, New Jersey, office. Botwin is responsible for leading the firm’s human resources group, including benefits, employee relations, communications, compliance with local and federal employment laws, recruiting, and general personnel management.
