"We need business to give practical meaning and reach to the values and principles that connect cultures and people everywhere." Ban Ki-moon Secretary General of the United Nations
I am writing from Conference Room 4 at the United Nations where I am attending a two-day conference on global diversity. It has been a phenomenal experience to learn and exchange best practices with professionals from the U.S. and all over the world. To see people from as far as Ghana, Brazil and the Czech Republic gather to discuss the challenges and opportunities that the changing demographics bring to business, government and the non-profit sectors has been fascinating.

Stay tuned for later postings from my experience at the United Nations.
