By James Taylor Thursday, 28 April 2011 When we wrote earlier this week about Britain's £32bn-a-year absence problem, we suggested the best approach would involve a mixture of carrot and stick. Now some of you seemed to think the stick bit was rather more influential. But it's undoubtedly true that there is a carrot angle too: for instance, studies have suggested that staff who consider themselves engaged at work tend to take fewer days off - as well as being more productive and more loyal. And according to a new survey by software specialist LeapCR, one of the best ways for employers to boost engagement is to take CSR more seriously - and encourage their staff to do the same...
LeapCR asked over 1,000 staff in the UK how they felt about CSR. And it turns out they're extremely pro. Three-quarters said they want their employer 'to balance commercial success with good CSR strategies, including supporting charities'. It may be that this is just a communication problem.

Omidyar Network is a philanthropic investment firm dedicated to creating opportunity for people to improve their lives.
We provide grants to non-profits and invest in innovative organizations that are advancing economic and social change. eBay founder Pierre Omidyar and wife Pam established Omidyar Network based on their conviction that every person has the power to make a difference. Our work enables people to discover that power, improve their own lives, and make lasting contributions to their communities. The formation of Omidyar Network was inspired by Pierre’s experience at eBay, which he founded in 1995 based on his beliefs in the potential of individuals and the power of markets.
Those principles of access, connection, and ownership influenced the Omidyars’ approach to philanthropy. While eBay was still a young company, Pierre and Pam co-founded The Omidyar Foundation to support nonprofits. Omidyar Network is part of The Omidyar Group. Letter Lounge - Connaught Opera: Special Projects. Among our proudest achievements, we have received grants from several of the Twelve Great Livery Companies in the City of London.
These are the Mercers', Drapers', Goldsmiths', Merchant Taylors', Haberdashers', Fishmongers', Leathersellers', Saddlers' and Carmens' Companies. We greatly value our association with these companies who have each funded concerts for older people and in addition, some have hosted concerts in their Livery Halls. The first of these was the Premier Livery Company, The Mercers’ (picture below). These are rare opportunities for older people in London to have access to events in these magnificent settings and, from the feedback we have received, are truly appreciated by them. ABOVE: The elegant Drawing Room at the Merchant Taylors’ Hall provides a perfect setting for the Annual Strawberry Cream Tea and entertainment by Connaught Opera.

January 16th, 2011 | 1st International Walk With Flowers Day. From Walk With Flowers: When you walk the street with a bunch of flowers, interesting things will happen. People will smile at you, give you space to walk, and you will see this special glow in the eyes of many of them. Flowers are romantic, and most people have some kind of enjoyable memory of a day they received a bouquet, or they were giving one to a loved person.Walking with flowers gets even more interesting when you start giving them away.
And the idea is giving them to somebody you never met before. We believe that life itself is a work of art, and thus, it should be celebrated as often as possible. We are no friends of PR hype, so the idea is not to make this yet another marketing event for the flower industry. Instead, we just want to embrace this day to be friendly to strangers and interact with them - for a couple of seconds, minutes, or even hours. If you are interested to participate, you could actually walk with flowers, but you could also: Butterfly Social - singles events in London. Snook. Google Maps.
