2.2 Wasting opportunities: Working Out of Poverty
Youth unemployment

2.1 The cruel dilemma of school or work: Working Out of Poverty
The education and preparation for working life of the current generation of children are of key importance to the drive to reduce and eradicate extreme poverty. Access to basic education has improved in a large number of countries, but the poor have benefited much less than those who are better off. Over 115 million school-age children, mainly in low-income countries, were not in school in 1999; 56 per cent of them were girls. On current trends, a large number of South and West Asian and African countries are unlikely to achieve the Millennium Development Goal of ensuring that all children complete a full course of primary education by 2015.

Taking Your Career to the Next Level
The voice on the other end of the phone echoed with anxious desperation familiar to any sales pro struggling to make quota. " I´ve just got to get my career to the next level," she sighed. "What level do you want to reach?" I asked. "Do you know the level you´re stuck at now?" "I could tell you how my manager describes my current production level," she answered, "but it wouldn´t be very lady-like." For this sales pro, like many others, getting to the next level is merely a figure of speech. It´s slang for improving sales figures, breaking through one´s current production plateau. She probably won´t attain next level until and unless she knows what the levels of selling are and the impact they have on personal sales productivity

THE JOB MARKET
In recent years, the level of educational attainment of the labor force has risen dramatically. Projected rates of employment growth are faster for occupations requiting higher levels of education or training than for those requiting less.

HUMAN RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT AND ATTRACTING INWARD FDI
One of the characteristics of rich industrial economies is the availability of a workforce with a high level of human capital. Whether human capital has been the key driver of economic prosperity or vice-versa is still a matter of debate. Nevertheless, long time series trends in educational attainment and economic growth during the last century indicate that HRD and economic prosperity went hand in hand10. Some developing countries followed similar trends in human capital and economic growth. What was distinctive about these developing countries is that they appeared to have realised large economic benefits in attracting MNEs into host economies, and have thus mobilised inward FDI to attain rapid economic growth.

Coach Pete Tip: What Does Success Mean To You?
Let's stop for a moment and discuss what success means to you. Webster defines success as a "favorable outcome...attainment of wealth, favor or eminence".

LOOK BEHIND BEFORE YOU LOOK AHEAD
Now is a great time to look back on the past year and gain some perspective on where you’ve come over the last twelve months and what you’ve accomplished. It is also the time to create a realistic personal vision for 2008. A personal vision is more predictive of success and satisfaction than socio-economic background, intelligence or educational level.

Social Media Involvement
More small businesses are asking what they can do to get more involved in social media. I commend them for realizing how important it is for their brand as well as for understanding what consumers are saying about them or their product/service. The first thing I tell a customer about social media is that “you get out what you put in”, meaning, the more time you spend engaging people the more benefit you will get out of social media on a Personal, Educational, and Business level.

Upgrading Performance Closes More Sales: Lessons learned from 14 year old hockey players
Performing at your highest level is difficult to do over and over again. It’s not your talent that fluctuates. You may alter and upgrade your game plan and knowledge level, but at the end of the day true high-level performance seems to be driven by something other than talent alone. I believe winning at the highest level, closing the biggest or the most sales, is based on the energy you bring – with all other factors being reasonably similar.

I Resolve...
Does your company set goals for the coming year? Are you measured (and paid) based upon the attainment of these goals?
