Minister Rona Ambrose is chairwoman of a new committee of business executives studying women on boards. The committee is looking to boost the number of women on corporate boards in Canada. “I wanted action-oriented recommendations for the government to immediately act on. We have had enough studies and enough reports” Ms Ambrose said in an interview.
According to the research organization Catalyst, women make up 47% of the Canadian labor force but only 14% of board seats among the 500…

First Minister’s call for ‘grown up politics’ countered by order – from the top
On Radio Clyde News at 11.00am yesterday morning, 8th June, First Minister Alex Salmond said that ‘grown up politics is about working with opponents’.
Correct as this is, it indicates that the First Minister is asleep at the wheel. Mr Salmond can have no idea that, at the highest level within his own party, working with opponents has been expressly forbidden, with mass suspensions and overt threats of loss of party membership to support it.
An authoritative source in Edinburgh…

Almost every college career services department in the country pushes to area employers the benefits of using their internship program. On the first look it is a no brainer for the corporation. They get added manpower during heavy workload times and they can usually get it without any financial impact on the corporation. For the student it provides them with some work experience in the real world and exposure to varying industries from which they can plan out their…
