A Silver Century Is Colouring Our Labour Markets
| |
| We are on the cusp of a huge change and yet only a few can see it. According to The Conference Board of Canada’s most recent research finding, “A rising proportion of old and “very old” (those 80 years of age or more) citizens will be the defining demographic trend in most countries. A second trend, the rapid fall in fertility rates, will create societies with fewer young people. In Western countries, the labour surplus of the last quarter of the 20th century will become history in the first quarter of the next century.” Indeed, the 21st century will be the silver century worldwide. |

The Roles And Responsibilities Of The Canada National Bank
| |
| Canada National Bank is the central bank of Canada. Although, it is important to know that it is not a government department. It is rather a crown corporation owned by the government. Though its activities are almost independent, its earnings go to the federal treasury and shares are directly held by the finance ministry. Besides that, it is not the federal public service agency but the bank itself that regulates the employees of this bank. It was after the introduction of the 1934 Bank of Canada Act that gave this bank the monopoly on the issuance of banknotes. The value of the Canadian dollar depends upon the actual amount of money created by this bank. Its main task is to promote the financial and economic well being of Canada. |

Managing in China Without Coaching
| |
| - Published by CONCHIUS in Shanghai Star Business Journal 31 March, 2008.
In most Western countries, leaders are used to working in an environment where the employees are highly participating in meetings and contributing their opinions and experiences to the decision making process. A Western employee feels comfortable to argue for their beliefs and to share opinions in meetings with superiors. Furthermore, a manager in the West is not necessarily assumed to be an expert in his field or industry. On the contrary, he is supposed to utilize the knowledge in his team in decisions and projects. The Western managers are therefore used to lead highly interactive teams relying heavily on two-way communication. When a team achieves strong synergy, he can and will step down. The team becomes creative and manage it-self. |
