The event is part of the New G enerational Contract\, a joint initiative of the St. Gallen Symposium and The Club of Rome.\nIn light of critical challenges such as climate change and responsible AI\, shifting from a short-term focus in decision-making t o prioritising societal impacts that will last for generations will be key . As research in organisations suggests\, a better balance of different g enerational perspectives in the leadership structures of businesses and go vernments could help accelerate this shift. Yet\, even though they hold th e greatest stakes in the future\, younger generations are largely excluded from the decision-making bodies shaping their lives. For example\, only 1 8% of global parliamentarians are under 40\, while the average age of corp orate board directors stands at around 63.\nA key goal of the UN Summit of the Future\, taking place on 22-23 September in New York\, is to develop more ambitious measures on how the UN and member-states involve younger ge nerations in political processes. Therefore\, on the occasion of the Summi t\, the NYU School of Professional Studies and the St. Gallen Symposium ar e delighted to invite you for a high-level event on September 20\, from 4: 00 to 6:00pm at NYU SPS Midtown Center\, 20 W 43rd St\, 4th floor. Togeth er\, we will explore the potential and the practicalities of embracing mor e intergenerational leadership models to future-proof decision-making in t he public and private sectors.\nAfter about 60 minutes of thematic discuss ion\, some drinks and snacks will be served to continue our exchange.\nSpe akers include: Angela Sun\, Member of Board of Directors\, Cushman &\; Wakefield\, Western Union\, Marie-Claire Graf\, Co-Founder\, Youth Negoti ators Academy\; Councilor\, World Future Council\; fmr. Member of Swiss UN FCCC Delegation\, and Mamphela Ramphele\, Honorary President.\n[button lin k="https://symposium.org/upcoming-event-intergenerational-leadership-for-i nnovation-and-sustainability/"] Learn more[/button] ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.clubofrome.org/wp-content/uploads/20 24/08/Social-Media-Assets.png CATEGORIES:Emerging New Civilisations LOCATION:NYU SPS Midtown Center\, 20 W 43rd St\, 4th floor\, New York City\ , United Kingdom X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=20 W 43rd St\, 4th floor\, New York City\, United Kingdom;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=NYU SPS Midtown Center:geo:0,0 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VTIMEZONE TZID:America/New_York X-LIC-LOCATION:America/New_York BEGIN:DAYLIGHT DTSTART:20240310T030000 TZOFFSETFROM:-0500 TZOFFSETTO:-0400 TZNAME:EDT END:DAYLIGHT END:VTIMEZONE END:VCALENDAR
