The United Nations is turning to the lessons from employee engagement to help it deliver its eight Millennium goals. Wayne Clarke, managing partner of Best Companies Partnership, reports live from the UN in New York.
I arrived in New York for the United Nations/Junior Chamber/Global Compact meeting on Saturday. I had been asked by the Junior Chamber to give a presentation on the power of engagement in helping the United Nations to deliver on the eight Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) which were set out in the year 2000.
The Junior Chamber is an amazing organisation run by an amazing president, Roland Kwemain. It is a voluntary organisation that empowers young global citizens to make positive change and it represents one of the most cost-effective ways I have ever seen to grow your people, especially if you have a tight training budget. The UK president is called Leslie Young, www.jciuk.org.uk. Get involved if you can.
