Roland Berger supports the Young Global Leaders
think: act special introduces dedicated network members from around the world
The commitment of Roland Berger Strategy Consultants goes far beyond just consulting – at a regional, national and international level. For example, Roland Berger has been a strategic partner to the Young Global Leaders (YGL) of the World Economic Forum (WEF) for many years. Among the YGL are international managers who want to leverage their experience to help improve the world. Social responsibility, respect, human rights and human dignity are the fundamental values that link the YGL together. In the latest think: act special, some of the Young Global Leaders from different parts of the world introduce themselves.
"We want to share consulting knowledge, spread good ideas and, as much as we can, try to make the world a better place," says Beatrix Morath, Senior Partner at Roland Berger in Switzerland and supporter of the YGL in various projects. Around 750 outstanding young people from 80 countries are striving to create better education opportunities for young people, fighting poverty or combatting climate change. Among these people are the entrepreneurs Jimmy Wales and Shai Agassi and Crown Prince Haakon of Norway.
think: act special on the Young Global Leaders
To present the diversity and exceptional commitment of the Young Global Leaders, Roland Berger has now brought out a think: act special entitled "Young Global Leaders – Next Generation Responsibility". Alongside an interview with economist and founder of the WEF, Klaus Schwab, about the young generation of idealists, some YGL members and their activities are introduced. "The Young Global Leaders are so impressive because they use their intelligence and knowledge to help others," says Beatrix Morath. "The social involvement of the YGL is a common theme throughout so many parts of life and it brings together nationalities, professions, sectors and cultures."
Diverse are also the means that the YGL call upon to discuss global issues. For example, Jennifer Corriero from Canada uses the poem "How does change happen?" to emotionally address complex matters such as education, nutrition and development. The medical doctor and former bi- and triathlete Christian Wenk, on the other hand, tells of how a cycling accident confined him to a wheelchair, and how that taught him how to commit his energy to goals that lie beyond his own personal limits.
The YGL task forces
In order to work more effectively, the YGL is divided into task forces that focus on individual topics. Roland Berger consultants currently support the task forces on the topics of sustainability, governance and education opportunities for young people. Roland Berger also conducts studies on various topics and publishes its findings. In this way, compendiums on social trends and responsible leadership have been compiled in close cooperation with the YGL network, which can be used as the basis for numerous YGL activities.
