Event planeri imaju mogućnost da pruže mnogo više od bukiranja smeštaja, orga nizacije transfera, večera i sličnih, uobi čajenih aktivnosti. Implemeniranje CSR aktivnosti u događaj doprinosi stvaranju veće vrednosti samog događaja, angažo vanju učesnika i dobar zajednički osećaj svih prisutnih jer je urađeno nešto za dob robit drugih. Taj osećaj će isplivati na po vršinu kao najbitniji za većinu gostiju. Prostor je bio veoma lep, hrana fantastična, domaćini su bili više nego ljubazni, i sve je bilo stvarno na nivou, ali, čoveče, danas sam doprineo zajedno sa ostalima da bolesno dete ima za lečenje, da beskućnici imaju šta da pojedu, sredili smo park, a onom igrač kom, koju smo pravili sa kolegama, igraće se neko dete iz sirotišta... E TO je dobar osećaj! Dobro je bilo biti deo ove priče!

Verovatno će se i spontano pokrenuti deljenje ovog utiska na društvenim mrežama, jer ljudi žude za dobrim iskustvima, osećajem da kao pojedinci mogu nešto da promene ili doprinesu i budu deo nečeg važnog ili velikog. Često se event planeri pitaju kako da motivišu i inspirišu svoje učesnike na događaju, a aktivnosti korporativne društvene odgovornosti omogućavaju upravo to. Davanje – u svakom smislu, je inspirativno, nadahnjujuće i u krajnjem slučaju, zarazno. I kao što je Kejti Kalvin, CEO i predsednica Fondacije Ujedinjenih Nacija rekla – „Suština davanja nije samo skupljanje donacija. Ono je u pravljenju razlike.” U ovom broju SEEbtm magazina pronađite puno praktičnih saveta i ideja koje aktivno sti kako i zašto da primenite, pronađite dobre primere u praksi, i na kraju krajeva, inspi rišite se kako da inspirišete druge. Kad se malo razmisli, čak je apsurdno koliko je implementiranje neke od ovih aktiv nosti jednostavno, često je dovoljno samo da se neko SETI da bi to moglo da se uradi. I nastanu velike stvari. „Pomozi drugima bez razloga i daj bez očekivanja da ćeš dobiti nešto za uzvrat.” – Roy T. Bennett, The Light in the Heart

Event planners have the ability to prov ide much more than booking accommo dation, organizing transfer, dinners, and similar typycal activities. Implementing CSR activities in an event contributes to creating greater value of the event itself, engaging the participants, and a good shared feeling of everyone attending be cause something is done for the benefit of others. This feeling will emerge as the most important one for most guests. The venue was very beautiful, the food was fantastic, the hosts were more than cour teous, and everything was really up to par. But, man, today I helped alongside others a sick child to afford treatment, the homeless to have something to eat, we landscaped a park, and the toy that we made together with our colleagues will end up in an orp han’s hands... NOW, THAT is a good feeling! It was good to be part of this story! This impression will most likely spontaneously spread over social media because pe ople crave positive experiences and the feeling that as individuals they can make a difference, contribute and be part of something important or big. Event planners often wonder how they can motivate and inspire their attendees, and CSR activities do exactly that. Giving – in every sense of the word – is stimulating, inspiring and, ultimately, contagious. As Kathy Kalvin, CEO and President of the United Nations Foundation, said: “Giving is not just about making a donation. It is about mak ing a difference.” In this issue of SEEbtm you’ll find a lot of practical tips and ideas for what, how and why to do something and good real-life examples, as well as get inspired to inspire others. When you start thinking about it, it’s absurd how simple implementing these activi ties is – often requiring only someone to REMEMBER it can be done. And that’s how big things happen.

tema broja Zeleni sastanci – budućnost u organizaciji događaja kojoj se nadamo

Obojte svoj sastanak u zeleno Korporativna društvena odgovornost ne podrazumeva samo pomoć onima ko jima je potrebna. Kako nam kaže poslednja ICCA statistika, 2017. godine u svetu je održano preko 12.500 međunarodnih kongresa. Sada samo zamislite koliko je veliki broj ljudi koji je ovim sastancima prisustvovao. U pitanju su milioni učesnika. Koliko papira, hrane, pića, različitih ambala ža, kesa i ostalog materijala je potrošeno na njima? Takozvani zeleni sastanci podrazumevaju povećanu energetsku efikasnost, smanjivanje otpada kada god je to mogućnost, kao i ekološki prihvatljiv dolazak i od lazak gostiju svaki put kada i ako se za to ukaže prilika. Znate li koliko hrane, pića, nepotrošenog i neiskori šćenog materijala nakon završenog događaja staje? Mnogo. Loša vest je što se sve to uglavnom baca. Sigurni smo da znate šta bi se sa tim ostacima sve moglo uraditi ili na koji način biste ih mogli smanjiti, ali nikada nije na odmet ponoviti J. Počnimo redom. Planiranje svakog događaja počinje, kako ime kaže, pravljenjem predloga i planova. Njih, umesto da štampate i na sastanke nosite štampane primerke, možete kolegama poslati nekoliko dana ranije putem e mail-a i tako napraviti uštedu u potrošenom papiru. Kada završite sa sastankom, kolegama možete poslati šta je dogovoreno ili odlučeno ponovo u elektronskom formi, kao neki vid follow up-a. Kada kreirate agendu, učesnicima događaja je

možete poslati e mail-om. A kako je ovo doba digital nih komunikacija i tehnološkog napretka, opcija je i da za događaj kreirate aplikaciju koju će gosti moći da koriste za vreme trajanja događaja koji organizujete. Tu možete staviti sve potrebne informacije koje će biti od koristi – agendu, satnicu, rasporede predavanja, radionica, sastanaka... Kada govorimo o tanjirima, čašama, priboru za jelo i maramicama, možete ih zameniti onim koje su bioraz gradive. A to ne mora biti samo karton.

b r o j a

Postoje i oni koji se prave od bambusa i listova palme. Izgledaju atraktivno, a bez bedni su i nisu štetni za okolinu. Za pripremu obroka možete koristiti lokalne namirnice. Pored toga što poma žete lokalnu ekonomiju, lepo je i korisno upoznati se sa lokalnim specijalitetima i specifičnostima. Pogotovo ako među učesnicima imate predstavnike iz drugih zemalja. Takođe, piće, umesto u malim ambalažama, možete služiti iz onih koje su veće. Po završetku događaja, ostatke hrane i pića uvek možete odneti u neku od narodnih kuhinja ili, na primer, domovima za nezbrinute. Ono što ostane, može se i reciklirati. Na mesto događaja odnesite nekoliko većih kanti ili kontejnera (u zavisnosti od toga koliko je veliki tip događaja koji organizujete) i na svakoj označite koji tip otpada tu treba da bude odložen. Na primer: karton, plastika, ostalo. I za vreme trajanja događaja sortirajte kako bi se na kraju sve moglo recik lirati. Izbacite iz upotrebe plastične kese, okrenite se papirnim kesama ili platnenim torbama. Što se tiče energetske efikasnosti, ona se može postići kroz korišćenje odgovarajućeg osvetljenja sale i pros tora koji koristite. Podatak da se oko 20% električne energije u današnje vreme troši kroz neefikasnu rasve tu zaista je zabrinjavajuć. Na našim prostorima još uvek je, nažalost, retko kori šćenje solarne energije, ali se uvek mogu koristiti npr. LED sijalice. Na sam događaj ili sastanak, ukoliko prilike to dozvo ljavaju, možete doći vozilom sa nekim od kolega ili biciklom, zašto da ne? Tim bilding aktivnosti su uvek izazov za organizatore događaja. Cilj im je uvek u startu plemenit – svi učes

nici treba se osećaju dobro i treba da steknu utisak da su deo jednog istog tima. Da se iz svakog izvuče ono najbolje ili da pokaže ko je u kojoj oblasti najbolji i gde će dati najbolje rezultate. Ali, sada govorimo o tim bilding aktivnostima koje treba da donesu boljitak na globalnom nivou. Na nivou zajednice kojoj pripadamo i društva u kom živimo. Sadnja drveća, cveća, čišćenje i uređivanje par kova samo su neki od primera koje možete iskoristiti i doprineti lokalnoj zajednici.

Šteta što nam obez beđuje samo kiseonik koji dišemo.“ Zamislila sam se nad ovom rečenicom. A vi? Milica Novak

Green Meetings – the Future in Organizing Events We Hope for

Paint Your Meeting in Green Corporate social responsibility does not mean just assistance to those who need it. As the latest ICCA statistic shows, in 2017, over 12,500 international congresses were held in the world. Now just imagine what a large number of people have attended these meetings. Millions of participants were involved there. How much paper, food, drinks, different packaging, bags and other materials have been spent on those? So-called green meetings imply increased energy efficiency, waste reduction whenever possible, as well as environmentally friendly arrival and departure of guests whenever and if there is an opportunity for it. Do you know how much food, drink, unspent and unused materials after the event remain? A lot. The inconvenient information is that it is mostly thrown away. We are sure you know what you can do with all of these remains, or in which way you can re duce them, but it is never too much saying it again J. Let’s start by order. A planning of each event starts, as its name suggests, by making proposals and plans. Instead of printing and taking printed papers to meetings, you can send those to your colleagues a few days earlier via e-mail and save on the spent paper. When you finalize the meeting, you can send your coll eagues what’s agreed or decided again in electronic form, as some kind of follow-up. When you prepare the agenda, you can send it via e-mail to event parti cipants.

SEE Business Travel & Meetings magazine · Oct 2018–Feb 2019

And, as this is the era of digital communications and technological advancement, it is also an option to create an app for the event that guests will be able to use during the event you are organizing. You can put there all the necessary information that will be useful – agenda, hourly plan, schedule of lec tures, workshops, meetings... When we talk about plates, glasses, cutlery and handkerchiefs, you can replace them with those that are biodegradable. And it does not have to be just a cardboard. There are also those made of bamboo and palm leaves. They look attractive, and are safe and ecofriendly. You can use local ingredients to prepare meals. In addition to helping your local economy, it is also kind and useful to know and become familiar with local specialties and specifics. Especially if you have representatives from other countries among the par ticipants. Also, you can serve a drink, instead in small packs, in the larger ones. Upon completion of the event, food and drink remains can always be taken to some of the folk cuisines as a donation or, for example, to a shelter. The remains can also be recycled. You shall bring to the location of the event a few larger cans or contain ers (depending on how large a type of the event you

s t o r y

are organizing is) and label each with a type of waste that should be put in there. For example: cardbo ard, plastics, other. And, for the du ration of the event, do sorting out so that, at the end, everything could be recycled. Do not use plastic bags, turn to paper bags or canvas ones. As far as energy efficiency is con cerned, it can be achieved through the use of appropriate lighting of the hall and the space you use. The fact that around 20% of the electricity is being consumed nowa days through inefficient lighting is really worrying. Unfortunately, there are still rare uses of solar energy in our region, but we can always use LED bulbs, for example. If there is an opportunity for it, you can come to the very event or meeting by car with some of your colleagues, or by bike, why not? Team building activities are always a challenge for event organizers. At start, their goal is always a noble one – all participants need to feel good and need to gain the impression that they are part of the same team. To get the best out of each one or to show who is the best in a particular field and in which one he will show the best results. But now we are talking about team building activities that need to bring prosperity at a global level. At the level of the community we belong to and the society we live in. Planting trees, flowers, cleaning and arranging parks are just some of the examples you can make use of and which you can contribute to the local community with.

One thing that is for sure in common for all of us, re gardless of the gender, age, the place we live and work in, is that we are all inhabitants of the same planet. That is why we need to do everything that is in our power to leave it in a better state than the one we found it in. I’ve recently read someone’s saying: “Imagine that trees give us free WiFi signals. We would all do planting. It is a pity that the trees provide us with the oxygen for breathing only.” I have held my thoughts on this one. How about you? Milica Novak

tema broja Volim te zeleno!

Eco-friendly prostori za organizaciju događaja Kada se potrudite da sve što smo naveli u tekstu o „zelenim“ događajima uzme te u obzir pri organizaciji sledećeg sastanka, ostaje izbor mesta i prostora gde će isti biti održan. I on bi trebalo da bude „zelen“. Šta to konkretno znači? To znači da te lokacije, gradovi i prostori posebnu pažnju posvećuju zaštiti životne sredine u svakom smislu. Od zemalja koje se nalaze u našem regionu, na ovu temu svakako prednjači Slovenija. Zelena je inače i njihova zvanična boja. Pre više od 10 godina, u glavnom gradu, Ljubljani, počelo se sa implemen tacijom plana za održiv urbanistički razvoj poznat pod imenom Vision 2025, a sve sa ciljem poboljšanja kvaliteta života onih koji u samom gradu žive. Gradonačelnik je tada doneo odluku da se onemogući i zabrani pristup automobilima centru grada. A iako je ista puno puta osporavana, upravo ta odluka donela je Ljubljani titulu European Green Capital 2016 (Evropska zelena prestonica 2016) od strane Evropske komisije. Ovu viziju po držao je nacionalni plan o održi vosti koji se zove „Zelena. Aktivna. Zdrava Slovenija“ (Green. Active. Healthy Slovenia). Pored toga što automobila više nema u centru

glavnog grada, duž cele zemlje postoje javne česme sa pijaćom vodom, a lokalno stanovništvo za volelo je aktivnosti na otvorenom i podržavaju društveno odgovorne poslove kao i one koji se bave zašti tom životne sredine. Što se tiče eco-friendly mesta za organizovanje događaja u Ljubljani, pionir ovog trenda u hotelskoj industriji je hotel Park. Ovo je prvi hotel u Sloveniji koji je dobio prestižni sertifikat Travelife Gold na osnovu svoje posvećenosti i podrške održivom razvoju, ali i dobrotvornih aktivnosti koje je organizovao i sprovodio. Radi se o različitim projektima koji su korisni za okruženje, a za koje sredstva svake godine pokreće i skuplja me nadžment ovog hotela. Hotel Park je zapravo napravio takav prostor za svoje goste da nudi „zelena isku

stva“ kao što su „urban & green“ događaji gde gosti imaju prilike da se susretnu sa lokalnim dobavljači ma. I to nije sve. Posetioci kod njih mogu da iznajme električna vozila i imaju posebne benefite zbog toga, odobravaju eco popust za sve one koji dođu vozom, podstiču fizičku aktivnost čak i kod zaposlenih, koriste recikliran papir i priprodne materijale kada god je to moguće, trude se da bacaju što manje hra ne, kontrolišu potrošnju energije, edukuju goste koliko je važno voditi računa o životnoj sredini, sortiraju otpad i recikliraju sve što se može reciklirati. Kako su orijentisani i na zdravu ishranu i zdrav način života, gosti mogu ujutro raditi jogu ispod drveća u parku koji pripada hotelu. Hotel Ribno na Bledu postaće prvi turistički objekat u Sloveniji koji dobija titulu Zero Waste Hotel.

Za dve i po godine hotel je uspeo da poveća procenat odvojenog pri kupljenog otpada sa 40% na 92% primenjujući niz različitih mera. Istovremeno, počeli su da smanjuju količinu otpada koji sami prave. Većina mera je sprovedena u res toranu i kuhinji. Tako se proizvodi kao što su džem i maslac, koji su ponuđeni gostima u malim paketi ma, sada služe iz većih ambalaža te su stavljeni u staklene posude za samouslugu. Sličan pristup se koristi sa jogurtom i mlekom, koje hotel sada kupuje direktno od poljoprivrednika. Gosti dobijaju manje tanjire, tako da po potrebi uzimaju hranu neko liko puta, a na taj način se manje hrane baca. Papirne salvete zame njene su onim koje su napravljene od recikliranog papira, a voda se sada, umesto u plastičnim bocama, služi u staklenim. S obzirom na to da u centar Ljublja ne ne možete doći automobilom, opciju za kretanje imate u vidu vozila na električni pogon – kavalir. Ovo je besplatan javni prevoz po

administracija i dr. Pavle Pavlović, Nacionalni koordinator projekta Zeleni ključ, detaljnije je objasnio o čemu se radi: „Trenutno je skoro tri hiljade objekata u 57 zemalja sveta dobilo ovu eko-oznaku. Zeleni ključ je takođe dostupan za internacionalne hotelske lance, a do sada je ostvarena saradnja sa hotelskim lancem Radisson Hotel Group (Radisson Collection, Park Inn), kao i Starwood Hotels & Res orts Worldwide, Inc. (sada deo Marriott International).“ Kao nacionalni operater međuna rodnog programa Zeleni ključ, u Srbiji ovaj program sprovodi strukovno udruženje Ambasadori održivog razvoja i životne sredine. U 2015. godini je započet proces sertifikacije u kome trenutno aktiv no participiraju dva hotela koja su ispunila zadate kriterijume, hotel Radison Collection Old Mill i IN hotel. Mesec septembar je mesec odgo vornog poslovanja u hotelskom lancu Radison Collection. S obzirom na to da je od nedavno promenjen naziv hotelskog lanca, velike količine promotivnog mate rijala, uključujući papir, olovke, blokčići i drugo postali su višak. Celokupan materijal doniran je

humanitarnim organizacijama i vr tićima koji će ih ponovo upotrebiti. Hotel se aktivno uključuje u akciju Sat za našu planetu a sve akcije i ideje u hotelu i izvan njega, sprovo de se putem njihovog Responsible Business komiteta i Responsible Business koordinatora. Njihov korporativni način odgovor nog poslovanja sastoji od tri stuba, od kojih se Think Planet aktivno ba vi smanjenjem negativnog uticaja na životnu sredinu.

Svi sektori IN hotela uključeni su aktivno sprovođenje programa Ze leni ključ. Već na ulaznim vratima ovog hotela dobićete interesantnu ponudu iznajmljivanja bicikala kao deo promocije alternativnih vidova prevoza u cilju smanjenja ugljen dioksida. Njihova kuhinja često promoviše jela pripremljena od hrane organskog porekla i takođe su često uključeni u obeležavanje značajnih eko-datuma na među narodnom nivou. Ovaj hotel pre samo dva meseca je prošao i revi ziju od strane međunarodnog žirija i još jednom potvrdio doslednost i svoja dobrovoljna nastojanja da smanji negativne efekte po životnu sredinu. „Istraživanje koje je rađeno na osnovu kriterijuma Zeleni ključ od pre četiri godine, a u kome je učestvovalo 36 hotela u Srbiji od ukupno 300 tada kategorisanih, dalo je interesantne i ohrabrujuće rezultate“, navodi Pavle. Glavni grad Sjedinjenih Američkih Država, Vašington, konsultanstka kompanija Greenview i kompanija Oakland koja se bavi planiranjem i organizacijom događaja, su napra

vile studiju o održivosti i njenoj primeni u praksi 2015. godine – Annual Green Venue Report, koja je uključila 30 kongresnih centara širom sveta. Studija se bavila prikazom rezultata u domenu organizacije događaja uz očuvanje životne sredine i inovacija u tom smislu. Neka od pitanja koja su postavljana kongresnim centri ma bila su: „Da li donirate ostatke hrane?“, „Koja je vaša prosečna stopa preusmeravanja otpada?“, „Da li ste dobili neki od Green Meeting Industry sertifikata?“ Najvažniji pokazatelji do kojih se došlo jeste da je 70% ispitanih kon gresnih centara zaposlilo menadže ra koji je zadužen za program održi vosti, 80% njih uvelo je u praksu da se ostaci hrane doniraju lokalno u dobrotvorne svrhe, u oko 93% je moguće doći korišćenjem javnog prevoza, 33% centara na krovovi

ma ima prostor namenjen za uzga janje biljaka, 87% je obezbedilo parking za bicikle za svoje zaposle ne i goste kao i stanice za punjenje vozila na električan pogon. Čak 42% proizvodi obnovljivu energiju na licu mesta, uglavnom solarnu, a 59% nabavlja obnovljivu energiju, uglavnom snagu vetra. Za sajamsku industriju, koja važi za najvećeg „proizvođača“ smeća i ostataka hrane, pića i ostalih pra tećih stavri, ova studija je pokazala ono do čega su, radeći na duge sta ze, došli kongresni centri na svom putu ka održivosti. „Kongresni centri koji su prihvatili program održivosti mogu dovesti do npr., povećane efikasnosti, smanjiti troškove koje se tiču toga, povećanja zaposlenih, više zado voljnih klijenata i napraviti zdravu konkurentsku razliku na tržištu“, kažu autori pomenute studije koja

je rađena u partnerstvu glavnog grada SAD-a, Vašingtona i konsul tantske kompanije Greenview and Oakland, komapnije za planiranje događaja sa sedištem u Kaliforniji. Neki će na sve ovo reći da se ovde uglavnom radi o primerima iz ure đenijih država, da je njima lakše jer su to već razvijeni sistemi, da postoje zakoni koji se toga tiču, da je svest ljudi drugačija nego na našim prostorima. I sve to jeste istina. Ali, sigurno je da postoji nešto što svako od nas individualno može da uradi i nečim doprinese ovom važnom segmentu kada se radi ne samo o organizaciji događaja, već i u kućama u kojima živimo. Najmanji korak ka boljitku je bolji tak već sam po sebi. I zapamtite da promena počinje od nas samih!

cover story

Green, I Love You!

Eco-Friendly Venues for Event Organization When you make sure that all that we have mentioned in the text about “green” events is taken into consideration when organizing the next meeting, there will remain the choice of a place and venue where it will be held. And it should be “green”. What does that mean in particular? That means that those sites, cities and venues pay special attention to environmental protection in every sense. Out of the countries in our region, Slovenia is for sure predominant in this topic. Green is also its official color. More than 10 years ago, in the capital city, Ljubljana, the implementation of the Sustainable Urban Development Plan, known as the Vision 2025, was launched, with a goal of improving the qual ity of life of those living in the city itself. The Mayor then made the decision to disable and prohibit an access to the city center by cars. And, although such a decision has been challenged many times, exactly that decision brought Ljubljana a title of the European Green Capital 2016 given by the European Commission. This visi on was supported by a national sustainability plan named “Green. Active. Healthy Slovenia”. In addi tion to the fact that the cars are no

longer present in the center of the capital city, there are public drink ing water fountains throughout the country, and local people are fond of outdoor activities and they support jobs that are environmen tal protection oriented and have socially responsible note. As for the eco-friendly venue for organizing events in Ljubljana, the pioneer of this trend in the hotel industry is the Park Hotel. This is the first hotel in Slovenia that has received the prestigious certificate of Travelife Gold on the basis of its dedication and support to sustainable development, as well as of the charity activities it has organized and implemented. It is about various projects that are useful to the environment, for which the funds are moved and

SEE Business Travel & Meetings magazine · Oct 2018–Feb 2019

collected by the management of this hotel every year. Hotel Park has actually created such a space for its guests to offer “green expe riences” such as “urban & green” events where guests have the opportunity to meet with local suppliers. And that’s not all. Visitors can rent the electric vehicles and have spe cial benefits therefrom, approve eco discounts for all those who come by train, encourage physical activity even with employees, use recycled paper and natural materi als whenever possible, try to throw away as less food as possible, con trol energy consumption, inform guests how important it is to take care of the environment, sort the waste, and recycle everything that can be recycled. As they are orient ed to healthy food and a healthy

lifestyle, guests can do yoga under the trees in the park that belongs to the hotel in the morning. The first tourist facility in Slovenia to receive the title Zero Waste Ho tel will be hotel Ribno in Bled. Hotel did manage to increase the percentage of separately collected waste from 40% to 92% by imple menting various measures in two and a half years. During that time, they started reducing the amount of waste generated by their ope ration. Most of those measures were implemented in the restaurant and kitchen. Products such as jam and butter, which were offered to the guests in small packages, they now purchase in larger packaging, and placed in glass containers for self-service. With yoghurt and milk is used simi lar approach, which the hotel now buys directly from the farmer. The guests are given smaller plates so, they take smaller amounts of food, so that less food gets discar ded. Paper napkins were replaced with napkins made from recycled

paper and water is served in glass bottles instead of plastic ones. Since you can not reach the center of Ljubljana by car, you have the option of moving around in an electric vehicle – cavalier. This is a free public transport on the pedestrian zone of the capital city of Slovenia, which is environ mentally friendly. It is primarily intended for transportation of elderly people, those with mobility problems and visitors, and you can also order it by phone. And if you plan any physical activity, we sugg est cycling, as there are 230 km of bicycle routes in Ljubljana. Not so far from our region, in Salz burg, there are 38 congress indus try suppliers who have a green eco-label, which is issued by the Ministry of Environmental Protec tion. Among those, there are seven locations that are proud holders of the Green Meeting Certificate. Those are Salzburg Congress Center, Salzburg Arena, Salfelden Congress Center, Seminar and Culture Center Schloss Goldegg, Congress Center Ferry Prosche Zel

s t o r y

am Zeppelin, hotel Heffterhof and Congress Center Wyndham Grand Salzburg. The Congress Center Salzburg was also awarded the Green Location Certificate. The Eco-label in the hotel and hos pitality industry in Salzburg is held by the Sheraton Salzburg Hotel, the Heffterhof Hotel, the Ammer hauser hotel and restaurant, the Robinson Club Amade, the Crowne Plaza Salzburg and some others.

One of the most famous labels for tourist establishments in the world is Green Key. Green Key aims to contribute to the prevention of climate change, protect the envi ronment, and further sustainable

tourism by acknowledging hotels, campsites, ecolodges, restaurants, conference centers, and theme parks that meet a set of criteria grouped into 12 categories such as water and energy protection, waste management, guest infor mation, green area management, administration, etc. Pavle Pavlovic, National Coordina tor of Green Key Project, explained in more details: “Right now, almost three thousand establishments in 57 countries around the world have been awarded this eco-label. Green Key is also available for in ternational hotel chains, which so far include Radisson Hotel Group (Radisson Collection, Park Inn…) and Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc. (now part of Mar riott).” The Green Key international prog ram in Serbia is implemented by Environmental Ambassadors for Sustainable Development as the national operator. In 2015, the certification process was launched, and it currently involves two hotels that meet the set criteria – the Radisson Collec tion Old Mill and the IN Hotel – as active participants.

September is Responsible Business Action Month in the Radisson Col lection hotel chain. Since the hotel chain recently changed its name, large quantities of promotional material, including paper, pens, notepads, and other became redundant. All of these were donated to cha rity organizations and kindergar tens for reuse. The hotel is actively involved in the Earth Hour campaign, and every

97% of the hotels have local operators picking up waste 81% of the respondents think that waste is picked up regularly 63% of the hotels sort some of their waste 97% of the hotels use energy-saving light bulbs 64% of the respondents claim that their establishments have thermal insulation on the windows 70% of the respondents think that eco-labels can provide competitive advantage in the market and that eco-labels for hotels indeed protect the environment and health of staff and guests 60% of them believe that eco-labels for hotels can save electricity, water, workload, chemicals, and other work equipment 42% of the hotels rent bicycles on their premises 47% of the hotels have worked with the local community to raise awareness of sustainable development and environmental protection 36% of them have participated in organizing environmental events 94% of the hotels have restaurants with vegetarian menus 25% serve organic food at their restaurants * Data are part of the research of Pavle Pavlovic

campaign and idea in the hotel and beyond is implemented through their Responsible Business Committ ee and Responsible Business Coor dinator. Their corporate way of responsible business is made up of three pillars, of which Think Planet actively tackles reducing negative impact on the environment. Every IN Hotel department is acti vely implementing the Green Key program. Already at the hotel’s entrance you will get an interesting offer to rent a bicycle as part of eff orts to promote alternative modes of transport aimed at reducing carbon dioxide. Their kitchen often promotes dishes prepared with organic food and celebrates impor tant eco-dates at the international level. Just two months ago, the hotel passed an audit by an inter national jury panel and once again reiterated its resolve and voluntary efforts to reduce negative effects on the environment. “The research conducted against the Green Key criteria four years ago, involving 36 hotels in Serbia out of 300 classified at the time, came up with interesting and en couraging results”, said Pavle.

The capital of the United States of America, Washington, the consul tancy company Greenview and the company Oakland that deal with event planning and organizing, have prepared a Sustainability Study and its Implementation in practice in 2015 – The Annual Green Venue Report, which includ ed 30 congress centers around the world. The study focused on presenting the results in domain of organiza tion of events while preserving the environment and making innova tion in this regard. Some of the questions for the congress centers were the following: “Do you dona te the food remains?”, “What is your average rate of overflow of waste?”, “Did you obtain any of the Green Meeting Industry Certifi cates?” The most important indicators rea ched are that 70% of the congress centers interviewed employed a manager responsible for sustain ability program, 80% of those introduced into practice donat

ing of food remains locally for charity purposes, about 93% can be reached by public transport, 33% of the centers has roof space intended for plant breeding, 87% provided bicycle parking lots for their employees and guests, as well as the electric vehicle charg ing stations. Even 42% produce renewable energy on-site, mostly solar, while 59% supply renewable energy, mostly wind power. As for the fair industry, which is the largest “producer” of waste and re mains of food, beverages and other accompanying items, this study has shown the same thing that was reached, by working in the long run, by the congress centers on their way to sustainability. “Congress centers that have accep ted a sustainability program may, for example, increase efficiency, reduce costs thereof, increase employees, increase the number of satisfied customers and make a healthy competitive difference in the market,” said the authors of the study conducted in joint

s t o r y

venture of the capital city of the USA, Washington, and consultancy companies Greenview and Oak land, i.e. the companies engaged in event planning with headquarters in California. Some will say that these are exam ples of more regulated countries, that it is easier for them because those are already developed sys tems, that they have related stimu lating laws, that the consciousness of people is different from the one of ours. And all of this is true. But surely there is something that each of us can individually do and contribute to this important segment when it comes not just to organizing the events, but also to the homes we live in. The smallest step given towards prosperity immediately makes the prosperity itself. And remember that the change starts with ourselves!

intervju

Uvek nadograđujte sebe i svoje znanje!

Crna Gora – nova destinacija hotelske grupacije Falkensteiner Marko Ilić, generalni menadžer

Ove godine Marka Ilića je sačekao najveći izazov do sada – preuzeo je mesto gene ralnog menadžera hotela Queen of Montenegro u Bečićima, koji će od sledeće sezone i zvanično nastupiti na crnogorskom tržištu kao deo lanca Falkensteiner Hotels & Residences. Deo tima ove grupacije postao je 2012. godine, kada je do šao na poziciju F&B menadžera. Od tada, Marko je svoj put krčio strpljivo i polako, a o novinama u njegovom profesionalnom životu i grupaciji Falkensteiner, pro čitajte u intervjuu koji sledi. Hotelska grupacija Falkensteiner je od juna postala operater hotela Queen of Montenegro u Bečićima. Već od sredine oktobra ove godine, ulazite u proces redizajniranja da biste narednu letnju sezonu otvorili pod imenom Falkensteiner. Čime planirate da osvoji te crnogorsko primorje imajući u vidu da je konkuren cija brojna? Falkensteiner grupacija ima veliko iskustvo kada su u pi tanju hoteli za odmor na moru. Nakon Hrvatske i Italije, gde naših deset hotela od 4 i 5 zvezdica već godinama posluje veoma uspešno, na red je došla i Crna Gora. Grupacija je prepoznala veliki potencijal u ovom tržištu, a sam hotel Queen of Montenegro je videla kao dostoj nog predstavnika našeg brenda u budućnosti. Sve naše vrednosti će i ovde naći svoje mesto, a to je na prvom mestu vrhunska i personalizovana usluga kao i odnos prema zaposlenima koji nam je posebno važan kao deo tradicionalanog Falkensteiner koncepta.

U ovom slučaju, hotel će pre svega biti namenjen od raslima, raspolagaće ozbiljnim i prepoznatljivim Acqu apura Spa centrom koji će gostima od sledeće sezone ponuditi i brojne novine, što u ovom trenutku još ne bih otkrivao. Neka to bude iznenađenje. Možete li nam reći nešto o planovima koji se odnose na kongresnu ponudu i dodatne sadržaje? Hotel raspolaže odličnim kongresnim kapacitetima. Tu je pre svega velika multi-funkcionalna banket sala od 300 m2 koja može biti korišćena u razne svrhe, ide alna je za kongrese, seminare, korporativne proslave. Tu su i dve konferencijske sale kapaciteta do stotinak mesta u sedećoj postavci i jedna sala za sastanke do 30 mesta dok je u planu izgradnja još dve manje sale kapaciteta 30 mesta.

Sale će biti kompletno renovirane i opremljene po najvišim standardima, a sve imaju i prirodno osvetljenje što ih čini naravno još prijatnijim za rad i boravak u njima. Kakve potencijale vidite u Crnoj Gori koje se tiču otvaranja i razvijanja novog tržišta za ovu hotelsku grupaciju? Prema WTTC-u (The World Travel & Tourism Council), Crna Gora je rangirana kao prva zemlja u svetu u smi slu kratkoročnog i dugoročnog potencijala rasta turiz ma. Crna Gora trenutno radi na značajnim rekonstruk cijama svoje putne infrastrukture uz skoru izgradnju autoputa do granice sa Srbijom. Kada se sve uzme u obzir odluka grupacije da baš odavde nastavi svoje proširenje na Balkanu je potpu no logična, i, ako sve protekne kako planiramo, veru jem da se nećemo zadržati samo na jednom hotelu.

Ponosan sam pre svega na činje nicu da je moj razvojni put trajao dugo i podrazumevao predan rad i postepeno napredovanje. Samo tako imate priliku da naučite suštinu hotelskog poslovanja, a to je da treba krenuti od osnovnih poslova i polako krčiti svoj put na kom upravo i stičete neprocenjivo znanje i umeće rada sa gostima a sve to u okviru velikog i raznovrsnog tima. Iz ovoga bi i proistekao moj savet mlađim kolegama; krenite od samog početka, polako, strpljivo i temeljno, uvek nadograđujte sebe i svoje znanje. Uspeh je u tom slučaju neizbežan.

Bili ste deo tima i drugih hotela u sastavu Falkenste iner grupacije. Na koji način opisujete rad u okviru grupacije Falkensteiner? Deo sam Falkensteiner porodice već 6 godina, svoj razvoj u hotelijerskoj industriji sam ovde nastavio sa velikim zadovoljstvom i uz puno poverenje našeg menadžmenta na kom sam im beskrajno zahvalan. Pomagao sam u otvaranju nekoliko naših hotela i neke od njih vodio u sezoni. Falkensteiner, kao regionalni hotelski lanac, za mene ima idealnu dozu centralne podrške u smislu standar da poslovanja i pomoći od strane naše centrale ali isto tako i pruža dovoljno slobode da se prilagodimo lokalnom tržištu i postanemo autentični deo lokalne zajednice u okviru koje poslujemo i postojimo.

interview

Always Grow and Build Your Skills!

Montenegro: Falkensteiner’s New Destination Marko Ilic, General Manager

This year Marko Ilic encountered his biggest challenge yet – he took over as Ge neral Manager of the Queen of Montenegro, a hotel in Becici that will officially launch on the Montenegrin market next season as part of the Falkensteiner Ho tels & Residences. He joined the group’s team in 2012 as an F&B manager. Since then, Marko has been walking his path patiently without hurry. In this interview, he talks about the latest in his career and in Falkensteiner. Last June Falkensteiner started running the Queen of Montenegro in Becici. You will be initiating the redesign process in mid-October already to start the next summer season under the Falkensteiner name. How do you plan to conquer the Montenegrin coast, considering that the competition is high? Falkensteiner has extensive experience when it comes to beach holiday hotels. After Croatia and Italy – where our ten four and five-star hotels have been seeing suc cess for years – it was time for Montenegro to come to the fore. The group recognized the market’s great potential and saw the Queen of Montenegro itself as a worthy representative of our brand in the future. Our values will definitely find their place here, as well, and they – first and foremost – pertain to world-class personalized services and attitude towards employees, which is especially important to us as part of the tradi tional Falkensteiner concept. In this instance, the hotel will primarily be intended for adults. As of next season, the well-known state-of-the-art Acquapura Spa Center will be offering a number of

SEE Business Travel & Meetings magazine · Oct 2018–Feb 2019

novelties, which I would rather not reveal at this time. Let’s leave it as a surprise. Could you tell us more about plans related to the MICE segment and extra amenities? The hotel has excellent MICE facilities. Firstly, a large multi-functional banquet hall spreading over 300 sqm that can be used for various purposes, ideally for con ventions, seminars, and corporate celebrations. We also have two conference rooms with up to aro und hundred seats and one meeting room for up to 30 seats. Our plan is to build another two smaller rooms with 30 seats. The very position of the hotel, which is a bit off the promenade and crowds, makes it an excellent choice for both team building events and company meetings (e.g., meetcentives) in the preseason (April and May) and afterseason (Septem ber and October). The halls and rooms will be comple tely renovated and furbished to the highest standards. All of them have natural light, making them even more pleasant to work and spend time in.

What potentials do you see in Montenegro regarding the opening and developing a new market for the hotel group? The WTTC (World Travel and Tourism Council) ranks Montenegro first in the world in terms of short-term and long-term tourism growth potential. Montenegro is currently working on significant road infrastructu re reconstructions, the latest being that of highway leading to the border with Serbia. When everything is taken into account, the group’s decision to continue its expansion in the Balkans from this spot is entirely logical and – if everything goes according to plan – I believe that we will not stop at only one hotel. You were part of other Falkensteiner hotel teams, too. How would you describe working within the group? I have been part of the Falkensteiner family for six years. I have continued my hospitality industry career development with great pleasure and have been gree

ted with full confidence by the management, which I am extremely grateful for. I helped open several of our hotels and managed some of them in season. As a regional hotel chain, Falkensteiner has an ideal degree of central support in terms of business stan dards and assistance from our central office, but it also provides sufficient freedom to adapt to the local market and become an authentic part of the local co mmunity. The group has more than 30 hotels, but the Falkensteiner family – which conveys the best of what working in the hotel industry includes – is still active. That is why the very impression of actually being part of one big family contributes both to my enthusiasm and that of the entire team. Finally, could you tell us what you are particularly proud of in your career or what would be your advice to your peers? First of all, I am proud of the fact that my growth jour ney has been long and included dedicated work and gradual advancement. That is the only way to learn the essence of the hotel business, which is that you need to start from the basics and slowly make your way, which is precisely where you acquire priceless knowledge and skills in working with guests within a large and diverse team. This feeds into my advice for younger colleagues: Start from the very bottom, move up slowly, patiently, and thoroughly, and always grow and build your skills. This will inevitably lead to success.

Considering that the regional portal for event organizing seemice.com has existed for so long, the previous decade, by adjusting to technological changes, was marked with three versions of the

tema broja

Obezbeđivanje ekonomskog i socijalnog razvoja

CSR trendovi – čemu kompanije treba da teže? Svi mi koji radimo u industriji organizacije događaja ili smo na neki način u to uklju čeni, imamo priliku, ali i obavezu, da svojim znanjem, iskustvom i idejama damo primer drugima. Event menadžment na globalnom nivou sada obuhvata više od govornosti i nama se pruža mogućnost da budemo više od organizatora. Događaji i sastanci treba da služe razmeni iskustava jer to je ono što je neprocenljivo i što ostaje upamćeno. Prisustvovala sam različitim tipovima događaja, razli čite tematike, ali oni koji su na mene ostavili najveći utisak jesu oni koji su kreirani sa folozofijom „dava nja“. Osećaj da ste nekom pomogli, da ste nekom ulep šali dan, ili, još važnije, da je takav čin nekog drugog inspirisao i pokrenuo da uradi nešto u tom smeru, nep rocenjiv je! To je i način da nekom promenite poglede na život i probudite nadu u „bolje sutra“. Pišući ovaj tekst, pronašla sam jedan intere santan podatak. Svetski poslovni savet za održivi razvoj (World Business Council for Sustainable Develepoment) definiše društvenu korporativnu odgovornost kao „kontinuiranu posvećenost poslu sa ciljem da doprinese ekonomskom razvoju dok poboljšava kvalitet života zaposlenih i njihovih porodica, ali i zajednice i društva u širem smislu“. Najobuhvatnije objašnjenje na koje sam naišla za vreme istraživanja. A ono što mi se najviše dopalo jeste to što ukazuje na činjenicu da ovo utiče na kvalitete velikog broja ljudi. Dakle, ne samo zaposlenih, već i njihovih porodica,

SEE Business Travel & Meetings magazine · okt. 2018–feb. 2019

komšija, prijatelja, ljudi koje nikada nisu sreli niti up oznali. Događaji koji se u poslednje vreme organizuju pokazuju da dolazi do velikih promena u trendovima u njihovoj organizaciji. Kompanije pokazuju da sve više postaju zainteresovane za rešavanje problema – na lokalnom i globalnom nivou. Ovaj trend očekuje ekspanzija u narednom periodu. Ali, društveno odgovorne aktivnosti ne podrazumevaju samo organizaciju događaja sa ovom tematikom, već i puno drugih stvari u okviru kompanija. Evo nekih o kojima se najčešće priča.

Poštovanje prava i različitosti na radnom mestu Ovo je nešto čega se ne tako zanemarljiv broj kom panija pridržava samo na papiru. Međutim, broj korporacija koje ozbiljno vode računa se, na svu sreću, povećava. Dolazak stranih kompanija na naše prostore, na primer IKEA-e i LIDL-a, sigurno je doprineo ovom pozitivnom trendu jer su sa sobom doneli i pravila koja važe u zemljama iz kojih dolaze. Prekovremeni rad, dodatno zalagnje na poslu i ostvareni rezul tati zaposlenog konačno su počeli da bivaju primećeni od strane poslodavca. I u skladu sa tim, nagrađivani. Isto tako, zapošljava se sve veći broj žena, poštuje se privatnost zaposle

b r o j a

nih, kao i rasne, verske i seksualne slobode. Sve više pažnje se obraća na različitosti, lične, kulturološke i polne što vodi ka tome da kompanije same za sebe stvaraju svoju kulturu kroz negovanje ovih različitosti i ljudskih vrednosti pojedinaca. Znači, nije važno ko si, važno je kako obavljaš posao!

Očuvanje životne sredine Skoro sam sigurna da se o ovome najviše priča. Lepo je voditi računa o životnoj sredini. Ali treba ra diti i na prevenciji. Potrebno je delovati proaktivno,

Potrošači kao podstrek proizvođačima Da, istina je. Proizvođač vremenom postane ono što potrošač od njega očekuje. Ukoliko nam se ne dopada nečija poslovna filozofija, premise na kojima je zasnovana, više nismo zainteresovani za interakciju sa takvom kompanijom. Pod „interakcija“ podrazumevam kupovinu i korišćenje proizvoda i/ili usluga određenog brenda. Znači, naša svest, želje i potrebe, direktno utiču na postavljanje standar da. I kompanije to znaju! Iz tog razloga, one velike pogotovo, rade sve vrlo transparentno i, na primer, pred svoje globalne lance snabdevanja postavljaju sve više standarde. Odgovorni su za različita pitanja – od

#seebtm #kongresniturizam #seemice

t e m a

a ne retroaktivno kada pričamo o ovoj temi. Svedoci smo velikih klimatskih promena koje se uveliko dešavaju. A razloga za ove promene ima puno. Neke od njih su ljudske priprode. Ali neke i nisu. Prirodne katastrofe koje se dešavaju, treba da budu podstrek kompanijama da više resursa ulažu u prevenciju i, samim tim, u ublažavanje posledica, a ne samo u oporavak. Potrebno je više ulaganja u nove, inovativnije teh nologije i korišćenje priprodnih resursa u poslova nju. Ne kažem da recikliranje nije važno, jer zaista jeste, ali je i podjednako važno štedeti, na primer, električnu energiju i smanjiti proizvodnju i emito vanje štetnih gasova.

ispunjavanja ekoloških standarda i pitanja ljudskih prava pa do nekih većih problema. Još jedan način na koji su potrošači podstrek proizvo đačima jeste njihov izbor da kupuju isključivo proiz vode na kojima stoje oznake poput Fair trade, Not tested on animals, Organic food ili slično. Na taj način se kompanije „primoravaju“ da poštuju želju kupaca i da se pridržavaju određenih principa i vrednosti. U svemu ovome pojedinac ima veliku, možda i naj veću ulogu. Njegova svest, ili bolje rečeno, savest. Kompaniju čine ljudi, a ne obrnuto. Kada individua raste i razvija se, u kompaniji se dešava isti proces. Pomozite joj u tome. Širite ljubav. Mislite i činite dobro. To je trend koji koji je uvek akutuelan. Milica Novak

cover story

Ensuring Economic and Social Development

CSR Trends: What Should Companies Strive for? All of us working, or in another way involved, in the event planning industry have the opportunity – as well as the responsibility – to set an example with our know ledge, experience, and ideas. Globally, event management now includes more res ponsibilities and we are given the opportunity to be more than planners. Events and meetings should serve as exchange of ex periences because this is what’s invaluable and what’s remembered. I have attended different types of events with different themes, but those that left the biggest impression were those that were designed applying the philosophy of giving. The feeling that you helped somebody, that you made someone’s day, or – more importantly – that your action inspired and prompted someone to do something similar – that is truly price less! This is also a way to change people’s views on life and spark hope in a better future. While writing this, I came across an interesting piece of information. The World Business Council for Sustainable Development defines corporate social responsibility as a “continuous commitment to business with the goal of contributing to economic development while improving the quality of life of employees and their families, as well as communi ties and society in a broad sense.” This is the most comprehensive explanation I’ve found during my research. And what I liked most is that it points to the fact that this affects the quality of life of a large number of people. Meaning not only employees, but also their families, neighbours, friends, and even people they’ve never known or met.

Events that have been taking place over the years indicate that major changes are happening in event planning trends. Companies are showing that they are becoming increasingly interested in solving problems – both at the local and the global levels. This trend will spread in the coming period. And yet, socially respon sible activities involve not only hosting events focusing on this, but also many other things within companies. Here are some of the most talked about.

Respect for rights and differences in the workplace This is something that numerous companies adhere to on paper only. However, the number of corpora tion seriously taking care is fortunately growing. The arrival of foreign companies such as IKEA or LIDL to our region has certainly contributed to this positive trend because they brought also the rules that apply in the countries they come from. Overtime, extra effort, and performance am ong employees have finally started to get no ticed by employers. And accordingly, reward ed. At the same time, an increasing number

s t o r y

of women are getting employment, employee privacy is getting respect, as are racial, religious, and sexual freedoms. More and more attention is being paid to diversity – personal, cultural, and sexual – leading to companies creating their own cultures by fostering these differences and individual human values. So it doesn’t matter who you are, what mat ters is how you do your job!

Environmental preservation I’m confident that this is the hottest topic. It’s nice to take care of the environment. But we also have to work on prevention. We need to be proactive rather than retroactive when it comes to this segment. We are witness

Consumers as incentive for producers Yes, it’s true. Over time the producer becomes what the consumer expects. If we don’t like a company’s business philosophy, or its foundations, we lose inte rest in interacting with it. By “interacting” I mean pur chasing or using products and/or services made by a particular brand. This means that our awareness, desires, and needs directly influence the setting of standards. And companies know it! For this reason, companies – especially big ones – do everything very transparently and, for example, set increasingly higher standards for their global sup ply chains. They are responsible for various issues –

#seebtm #kongresniturizam #seemice

c o v e r

ing major climate changes that are taking place all around. And the reasons for these changes are many. Some of them are human. But some are not. The natural disasters that are happening should encourage companies to invest more resources in prevention and, consequently, ease the effects, as opposed to investing in recov ery only. We need more investments in new, more innovative technology and use of natural resources in business. I’m not saying that recycling is not important beca use it indeed is, but it’s equally important to save, for example, electricity and reduce the production and emission of harmful gases.

from meeting environmental standards and human rights issues to more pertinent issues. Another way consumers encourage producers is by choosing only products bearing labels like Fair trade, Not tested on animals, Organic food, or the like. This compels companies to respect consumers’ desi res and adhere to certain principles and values. In all this, the individual has an important – perhaps the key – role. More precisely, their awareness or rather conscience. A company is made up of people, not the other way around. When the individual gro ws and develops, the same process takes place in the company. Help your company. Spread love. Think and do good. This is one trend that is always in vogue. Milica Novak

Ovo je posao koji živimo i dišemo! Gospodin Herbert Brugger, Generalni menadžer Salzburg Congress centra

Salcburg je grad u centralnoj Austriji, na severnoj ivici Alpa. Izuzetno je popularan kao turistička des tinacija zahvaljujući baroknoj arhitekturi i lepoti, a u njemu se rodio i Volfgang Amadeus Mocart. Grad takođe postaje sve popularniji među organi zatorima događaja jer je Salzburg Congress pono san nosilac sertifikata Green Location.

O sertifikatu i drugim temama u vezi sa „zelenim“ aktivnostima razgovarali smo sa generalnim me nadžerom kongresnog centra Salzburg Congress, g. Herbertom Brugger-om.

Da li možete da nam kažete nešto više o sertifikatu za zelene sastanke? Zaštita životne sredine i ekološka održivost su teme koje su sve važnije – naročito kada je reč o organizaciji događaja i kongresa.

Postoji sveobuhvatan spisak kriterijuma koje je po trebno ispuniti kako bi događaj bio sertifikovan kao zeleni sastanak u Salzburg Congress centru. U vreme potpisivanja ugovora menadžeri događaja obaveštavaju centar o tome da li je događaj u skla du sa principima ekološke održivosti. Tako organizatori dobijaju dovoljno vremena za ogla šavanje statusa zelenog sastanka/zelenog događaja prilikom privlačenja učesnika, predavača i drugih partnera.

Procenat međunarodnih i evropskih kongresa koji se održavaju u kongresnom centru stalno raste. U 2017. godini njihov udeo iznosio je oko 75%. Značajna ulaganja u tehnološku infrastrukturu dovela su do toga da centar ispunjava najviša oče kivanja čak i tehnički najzahtevnijih kongresa.

Salzburg Congress – a Green Location Certificate Owner

Salzburg is a city in central Austria, at the north ern edge of the Alps. It is a very popular tourist destination for its Baroque architecture and gen eral prettiness and is the birthplace of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Also, it is becoming more and more popular with event organizers since Salz burg Congress is a proud owner of Green Location certificate.

75%. Significant investment in technological infrastructure has enabled the facility to meet the highest expectations of even the most technically demanding congresses. So far this year we have been very pleased with the degree of capacity utilisation. The quality and scale of the events have been wellsuited to the facility and they fit perfectly into our portfolio. There is a good balance between new and regular customers. In particular, the latter appreciate the standard of technical infrastructure and the way in which we have continued to develop the venue. In fact, on a technical level, we have always made sure we are one step ahead of the trends, which is something that has already gained us an interna tional reputation.

Do the event organizers recognize the importance of Green Meetings and in which extent? Green meetings and events are far more than a trend and have long since become a matter of hon our in the event sector. They are a clear sign that organisers are taking the issues of quality, energy consumption and environmental management very seriously and wish to set a good example for others.

Could You tell our readers something about fu ture plans in terms of “green activities”? Our goal is to preserve natural resources, and to optimise energy efficiency and regional profit generation. This strategy has the utmost priority in a city like Salzburg, whose beautiful old town is a registered UNESCO world heritage site.

Please describe how does Green Meet ing look like at Salzburg Congress? There is comprehensive list of criteria to work through in order to gain certification as a Green Meeting at Salzburg Congress. At the time the contract is signed the managers of the event are expected to inform Salzburg Congress as to whether the event should be held subject to the principles of ecological sustainability. This gives the organisers plenty of time to advertise the “Green Meeting / Green Event” status when attracting partici pants, speakers and other event partners. Regarding activities, tell us about the trend to wards internationalisation at Salzburg Congress?

istraživanje Koliko kompanije brinu o društvu?

Korporativna društvena odgovornost na događajima Koliko se u našem regionu organizuju događaji sa elementima korporativne druš tvene odgovornosti (CSR) i koliko se u organizaciji događaja u praksi stavlja fokus na zelene sastanke i vođenju računa o (davanju zauzvrat) zajednici u kojoj se doga đaj organizuje, istraživali smo za ovaj broj SEEbtm magazina. S obzirom na to da je korporativna društvena odgo vornost bitan segment poslovanja svake ozbiljne i veće kompanije i organizacije, većina ispitanika, 76.5%, je prisustvovala događaju koji je imao implementirane elemente CSR (Grafik 1).

Kod same organizacije ovakvih događaja, situacija je malo drugačija. U ovom slučaju, nešto više od 50% ispitanih je organizovalo ovakav događaj. Skoro da je slučaj „pola-pola“ onih koji jesu i koji nisu nikada organizovali ovaj tip događaja (Grafik 2).

SEE Business Travel & Meetings magazine · okt. 2018–feb. 2019

i s t r a ž i v a n j e Prema mišljenju učesnika u ovom istraživanju, najčešći oblik korporativne društvene odgovornosti jesu ekološki pristupi u proizvodnji i pružanju usluga (njih 70.6% je selektovalo ovaj vid CSR), nešto manje od toga, skoro 60% ispitanika je obeležio kao najčešći vid prikupljanje različitih vrsta donacija, kao i poštovanje ljudskih prava zaposlenih. Sledeći vid CSR koji se ističe jesu tim bilding aktivnosti sa implementiranom notom korporativno društvene odgovornosti, kao što je recimo sadnja drveća, čišće nje parkova i slično, a ističu se i zeleni sastanci/doga đaji kao vidovi CSR aktivnosti (Grafik 3).

SEE Business Travel & Meetings magazine · okt. 2018–feb. 2019

S tim u vezi, 47% ispitanika je prikupljalo neku vrstu donacije na događaju (Grafik 4 - 5), a isto toliko ispi tanika se izjasnilo da je organizovalo zeleni sastanak odnosno događaj. Na osnovu odgovora dobijenih istraživanjem, zeleni događaj najčešće podrazumeva recikliranje, deljenje vozila prilikom dolaska na isti, korišćenje materijala u digitalnom obliku (umesto štampanog), zatim upotre ba biorazgradivih tanjira/čaša/pribora. Praktikuje se i povećanje energetske efikasnosti korišćenjem odgovarajućeg osvetljenja, doniranje

ostataka hrane, upotreba lokalnih namirnica, kao i angažovanje lokalne radne snage. Od navedenog, najređe se praktikuje posluženje pića ili začina iz većih ambalaža (Grafik 6), što je svakako nešto na čemu event planeri treba da porade, s obzi rom na to da se velike uštede u finansijskom i ekološ kom smislu mogu napraviti posluženjem. Na primer vode iz većih bokala umesto davanje stotina flašica na nekom događaju.

Tatjana Radovič iz Kongresnog biroa Ljubljane navodi još neke primere ne samo za održavanje zelenih sasta naka već i za kreiranje zelene destinacije, što Ljubljana svakako jeste. Ona navodi terenske primere zelenih projekata i dobrih praksi (zeleni nabavni lanac, urbano pčelar stvo, zatvaranje centra grada za promet i novi principi urbane mobilnosti). Kao jedan od gore navedenih vidova CSR aktivnosti koji se koriste, jesu i tim bilding aktivnosti.

Konkretno, oko 65% ispitanika je organizovalo tim bil ding aktivnosti koje imaju elemente CSR (sadnja drve ća, čišćenje parkova i sl., Grafik 7). Ono što je uočljivo, jeste da je veliki procenat (88.2%) onih koji smatraju da kompanija u kojoj rade praktikuje ekološke pristupe u proizvodnji i/ili pružanju usluga (Grafik 8). Sa druge strane, učesnici u ovom istraživanju smatraju da na polju društvene korporativne odgovornosti ima dosta prostora za napredak i poboljšanje, s obzirom na to da je većina (52.9%) navela da smatra da se kompanija za koju rade ne bavi dovoljno korporativnom društvenom odgovornosti (Grafik 9).

How Much Do Companies Care About Society?

Corporate Social Responsibility at Events In this SEEbtm issue, we look at how much do events in our region include elem ents of corporate social responsibility (CSR) and how much focus does event pla nning actually place on green meetings and taking care of (giving back to) the community where events take place. Considering that corporate social responsibility is an important segment of any serious big company or organization, most of the respondents – 76.5% – attended an event that incorporated elements of CSR (Chart 1). As for the very planning of such events,

SEE Business Travel & Meetings magazine · Oct 2018–Feb 2019

the situation is slightly different. In this case, some what more than 50% of the respondents had organ ized an event like this. The split is nearly “fifty-fifty” between those who have and those who have never organized this type of event (Chart 2).

According to the participants in the survey, the most common form of corporate social responsibility is envi ronmental approach in production and service delive ry (70.6% selected this type of CSR), closely followed by raising different types of donations and respecting employees’ human rights with almost 60% of the respondents. The next form of CSR that stands out are team build ing activities that have a corporate social responsibi lity angle, such as tree planting, park cleaning, and the like, as well as green meetings/events (Chart 3). In this regard, 47% of the respondents had raised some type of donation at an event, and the same per centage stated that they had organized a green meet ing or event. Based on the responses obtained from the survey, a green event usually involves recycling,

ride sharing to the event, using materials in digital forms (instead of printed), and using biodegradable plates/cups/utensils. Efforts are invested towards increasing energy efficien cy by using appropriate lighting, donating food lefto vers, using locally sourced food, as well as hiring local workforce. Of the above, the least common is serving drinks or spices from larger packaging (Chart 4), which is certa inly something that event planners should address, since catering can enable big savings financially and environmentally. For example, water can be served at an event in big pitchers instead of hundreds of bottles. Tatjana Radovic from the Ljubljana Tourism/Conventi on Bureau listed some other examples not only for green meetings but also for creating green destina

s u r v e y tions, which Ljubljana certainly is. She mentioned on-site examples of green projects and best practices (green supply chain, urban beekeeping, road closure in the city center, and new principles of urban mobility). Among the above types of CSR activities that are used are also team building activities. Specifically, around 65% of the respondents had orga nized team building activities with elements of CSR (tree planting, park cleaning, etc.).

Notably, a large share (88.2%) of the respondents belie ve that the company they work for applies environmen tal approaches in production and/or service delivery. On the other hand, the survey participants think the area of corporate social responsibility has plenty room for improvement, given that a majority (52.9%) stated that the company they work for is insufficiently enga ged in corporate social responsibility.

primer iz prakse Doprinos društvu je obaveza svake kompanije

CSR primeri iz prakse regiona Divno je kada se rodi lepa ideja da se nekom pomogne. Pojedincu, zajednici, planeti. Ali kako isplanirati taj događaj? Koliko god da je tehnički deo organizacije važan, što je neosporno, važna je i sama implementacija ideje o pomoći. I na šta je važno obratiti posebnu pažnju? CSR aktivnost treba da bude deo korporativnih vrednosti kompanije Vizija i misija koju imate u vezi sa pomoći treba da bude tekstualno formulisana. Potrudite se da ona što vernije opiše vrednosti kom panije u kojoj radite, da istakne ono što je najbitnije. CSR treba da bude jedan od ključnih elemenata koji će vam pomoći u formulaciji.

Sumirajte/rezimirajte trenutne CSR aktivnosti Definišite akcije koje vaša kompanija trenutno sporo vodi tako što ćete razmisliti o postojećm, ali i potenci jalnim CSR aktivnostima. Bićete iznenađeni rezimeom. Zatim napravite listu aktivnosti, prikažite je svojim kolegama i porazgova rajte o njoj. Otkrićete mnoge stvari na kojima je potrebno da radite dodatno, tj. da ih razradite. Napravite listu problema koje uočavate, razmislite o aktivnostima koje vam mogu pomoći da ih rešite i pretvorite ih u neku vrstu pomoći za vašu okolinu. Istovremeno, morate biti svesni očekivanja koja vaša okolina ima od vas kao kompanije.

Planovi treba da budu realni Lako se „zamaštamo“ kada se radi o CSR aktivnosti. Jedno je želiti da spasite svet, a sasvim drugo su mo gućnosti da to uradite. Svaki, čak i najmanji pomak, ili dobro delo, svet već čini boljim mestom za život.

Uključite svoje kolege Kolegama i saradnicima treba da objasnite suštinu CSR aktivnosti koju planirate i zamolite ih za pomoć u osmišljavanju i/ili organizaciji. Ljudi koji učestvuju sa vama u ovoj humanoj misiji treba da veruju u ceo projekat. Da se poistovete sa njim, da osete da je to što od njih tražite korisno za zajednicu, ali i za njih kao pojednice. Na kraju, treba da budu motivisani, puni entuzijazma i da proslave svaki zajednički uspeh u implementaciji CSR aktivnosti.

Informišite javnost o tome šta radite Večita moralna dilema: da li svi treba da znaju da ste učinili dobro delo ili ne? Neki smatraju da ih treba raditi u tišini, bez obaveštavanja javnosti.

Lično, smatram da to nije dobro. Kompanije, ali i poje dinci, treba da budu primer dobre prakse. I javnost to treba da zna. Sigurno vam se nekada desilo da vam je neko bio inspiracija za nešto. Obaveštavanje javnosti o lepim i korisnim stvarima upravo tome i služi – da podigne svest o nečemu.

„Volimo blagdane jer volimo jedni druge”– Konzum, Hrvatska Kompanija Konzum drugu godinu sprovodi blagdan sku kampanju „Volimo blagdane jer volimo jedni druge” kroz koju čaroliju blagdana dijele s kupcima i zaposlenicima, a već tradicionalno pomažu potrebite. Konzumova blagdanska kućica je tijekom Adventa 2017. godine obišla zemlju kako bi širila čaroliju u Is tri, Dalmaciji, Slavoniji, na sjeveru zemlje, i u Zagrebu. U svakom gradu prikupljale su se donacije za lokalnu udrugu koju su odabrali samo zaposlenici Konzuma, a građani su sudjelovali simboličnom donacijom od 10 kuna za koju su, kao uspomenu na dobro djelo, kući ponijeli igračku.

Zahvaljujući ovoj uspješnoj inicijativi Konzum je donaciju od 25.000,00 KN omogućio udrugama iz Zagreba, Varaždina, Osijeka, Pule, Splita, Vukovara, Rijeke i Dubrovnika. Nakon što se čarolija blagdana proširila cijelom zemljom, predstavnici Konzuma su posjetili udruge i donacijama razveselili više od 6.000 štićenika domova i udruga. Konzum

example from practice Contribution to the Community Is the Responsibility of Each Company

CSR Case Studies of the Region It’s wonderful when a good idea to help someone is born. To help an individual, community, planet. But how to plan such an event? Whatever is the extent of importance of the technical part of the organization, which is indisputable, the implementation of the idea of assistance is also important. And what’s important to pay special attention to? CSR activity should be a part of the company’s corporate values The vision and mission you have about the assistance should be textually formulated. Try to make it as precise descriptive as possible, following the values of the company you work in, highlighting what is most important. The CSR should be one of the key elements to help in formulating it.

Summarize/make a resume of current CSR activities Define the actions your company is currently imple menting by considering both the existing and potential CSR activities. You will be surprised by the resume. Then, make a list of activities, show it to your colleagues and discuss it. You will discover many things that require your additional efforts and attention, so elaborate them. Make a list of problems you identify, consider the ac tivities that can help you to solve them and turn them into some kind of help for your environment. At the same time, you must be aware of the expecta tions that your environment has of you as a company.

Plans should be realistic We easily get “caught up” when it comes to CSR ac tivities. One thing is to want to save the world, and completely the other are the possibilities to do so. Each, even the smallest, shift, or a good deed, makes the world a better place to live.

Engage your colleagues Colleagues and associates should be explained the essence of the CSR activities you are planning and ask them to help with the design and/or organization. People who are participating with you in this human mission should believe in the whole project. They should identify themselves with it, feel that what you are looking for is useful both for the community, and also for them as individuals. In the end, they should be motivated, full of enthusiasm, and celebrate each com mon success in the implementation of CSR activities.

Inform the public about what you are doing Eternal moral dilemma: Do everyone need to know that you did a good deed or not? Some feel that they should work in silence, without informing the public.

Personally, I think it’s not good. Companies, but also individuals, should be an example of good practice. And the public should know that. It must have hap pened that you were inspired by someone to do something. Informing the public about beautiful and useful things shall serve for that purpose exactly –

raise the awareness of something. You will achieve more and the results will be evitable if you allow CSR activities are known! And what some of the companies in our region do in this field and what their ideas are, read in the lines that follow.

L’ORÉAL Citizen Day, Serbia “Every year, the L’Oréal Group organizes a Citizen Day and all employees from all over the world take part in. This initiative, as a day of com munity volunteering enables employees to devote an entire day of working time to supp ort the local communities and beneficiaries of non-profit organizations in the social and environmental area. This year, a great voluntary action, in which more than 100 volunteers took part and more than 800 working hours were donated, was held in the inclusion center “Meeting Point” in Zemun Polje (Belgrade, Serbia). Within the action, two sensory gardens with over 200 seedlings were formed as a part of future therapy for users, three big murals were painted on the walls which will contribute to

a positive atmosphere in the yard of the center, and a sports courts for basketball and football for the users of the center and the local population were redecorated.

Another Name for Luxury Business Travel Jelena Cabarkapa, Sales Manager at Hotel Regent Porto Montenegro

Jelena Cabarkapa joined the Regent Porto Montenegro as the general manager’s PA (Personal Assistant) in the team that was preparing the opening of the hotel half a decade ago. After that, she moved to the sales and marketing team as the sales manager, a position she holds today. We talked with her about the business philosophy that is the company’s key to success, as well as future plans. You joined the Regent Porto Montenegro team five years ago in its pre-opening stage. From today’s pers pective, how much have your expectations and plans regarding the MICE industry come to fruition? I am proud to have participated in the opening of the Regent Porto Montenegro, and after nearly five years I can say that I’m part of the team that contributed to the growth of luxury travel in Montenegro. Although I run a sales segment that focuses on the regional B2B segment, I firmly believe that our country positioned itself as a new luxury destination in a relatively short time, becoming an internationally recognized MICE destination over the last few years. Today, we can say we cooperated with more than 200 domestic companies; government and international organizations and we have 300 successful organized events. Your business philosophy was built on the premise of five-star know-how. How do you implement it in your day-to-day operations?

We monitor the trends in our clients’ industries and their activities very closely in order to adapt our of fering. In addition, we foster the development of part nerships and joint events in instances and locations that are optimal for joint activities. When designing our offering, we take into account all of our clients’ specific needs and accordingly create bids or even plan to adapt for the coming year. You recently announced an expansion that would further expand your B2B offering. What does this include exactly and what can we expect? During the summer of 2019, the Regent Porto Mon tenegro will open Baia – a new wing that will further diversify our offering with new room categories. If you recall, the Regent opened its Venice wing on August 1st, 2014, while the Aqua wing was opened in July last year. Now we have 149 excellent accommo dation units, and next year we’ll have another 70. Mirjana Jokic

mišljenje stručnjaka

Korporativna društvena odgovornost

Čineći drugima činimo i sebi Dragana Deh, Msc psiholog, sistemski psihoterapeut, lajf kouč

Sam termin korporativne društvene odgovornosti postaje sve više aktuelan, iako je još uvek u razvoju. Trend savremenih i manjih i većih kompanija, kao i drugih institucija, da razvijaju segment društveno odgovornog poslovanja je u kontinu iranom porastu i postaje princip po kome se prepoznaju principi solidarnosti, morala i etičkog poslovanja, razvoja, uticaja na korporativnu zajednicu i zajednicu uopšte – prepoznaje se opšta uspešnost poslovanja. Osvešćenost sveukupne odgovor nosti na različitim nivoima poslova nja postaje profesionalni imperativ delovanja i malih sistema, ali i onih najvećih, kao što su državne institucije, pa i sama država, ali u osnovi svake osvešćenosti i svake odgovornosti – temelj pripada pojedincu. Danas se taj pojedinac zove odgovorno lice, međutim sva ka individua prepoznaje opšti i lični vrednosni okvir kroz koji uobličava delovanje ka drugima. Psihološka perspektiva, pored ostalih, prepoznaje kao posebno značajne aspekte samopoštova nja, samoefikasnosti i potrebu za poštovanjem od strane drugih. Ti faktori dalje značajno utiču na samopouzdanje, svakako kreiranje

slike sebe u sopstvenim, ali i u oči ma drugih. Iako se često susreće mo sa komentarima da nekog nije briga šta drugi misle o njemu, takve izjave nemaju utemeljenost o istini. U biti, svakome je veoma stalo do mišljenja drugih i svako se, na sebi svojstven način, trudi da plasira što bolju sliku sebe svetu, čak i (u periodima) kada sam sobom nije zadovoljan. Zadržavajući psihološki ugao pos matranja, vratimo se na trenutak odrastanju i prisetimo se najmlađih članova našeg društva – dece. Jedna od razvojnih faza najranijeg detinjstva podrazumeva negativnu reakciju deteta na sve što mu se nudi. Iako je ta faza često iritirajuća za roditelje, pripada razvoju i kao

takva je sasvim primerena. Odgo vor „NE!“, nakon nekog vremena zamenjuje prihvatanje, odnosno odgovor „DA“ na sugestije roditelja i okoline, ali to da se izgovara sa razlogom da, da bih bio dobar! Da bi me drugi prihvatali, voleli, nagrađivali... Tek nakon te faze, prema naučnim istraživanjima, uobičajeno oko tre će godine, dete počinje sa takozva nim „voljnim DA“. Čak i veoma mala deca imaju potrebu da budu dobra, da bi bila prihvaćena. Odrastanje i, posebno – aktivno odraslo doba, taj segment stavlja u sam vrh društveno poželjnih osobina, često opredeljućih, kako za socijalne kontakte, tako i za pro fesionalni razvoj i karijeru. Time se ne misli na poslušnost, već na

kategoriju plemenitosti, saradlji vosti, empatije – sluha za potrebe drugih, spremnosti da se pomo gne, odricanje od predrasuda, stereotipa i svakog vida diskri minacije, kao i aktivno učešće u humanističkim aktivnostima. Da li je svaki čovek rođen sa kapa citetom da čini dobra dela, pitanje je koje izaziva oprečne odgovore. Poznato je da nijedna generaliza cija ne vodi istini, pa samim tim ne možemo ni ljude podeliti na plemenite i one koji to nisu. Izvesno je da svaki prosečan čovek nosi lične resurse za odgovornost i za dobra dela. I činjenica je da čineći drugima – činimo i sebi. Ovog puta to ne proističe (najčeš će) iz potrebe da bi nas drugi prepoznali kao dobra, dušebrižna bića, već zato što se individua ose ća dobro, ponekad i moćno, kada učini bilo šta pozitivno. Pomažući drugima, zapravo pomažemo sebi, bilo da smo to prepoznali kao vodeći motiv ili ne. Plemenit čin podiže samopoštovanje i aktivira

„organ“ plemenitosti koji svaki, po novo – najprosečeniji čovek ima. Iako se u svakom činjenju može pronaći i instrumentalni motiv („radim nešto sa konkretnim ciljem da imam (ne)posredan interes od toga“), već sama spremnost da čini mo nešto za druge nas činjenično čini boljim ljudima. Drugim rečima, naš život dobija sasvim konkretan smisao!

Pitanje smisla „Ne pita se čovek o smislu života, već život njemu postavlja pitanja na koja on treba da odgovori. A istina se nameće sama po sebi i ne treba joj posrednik“

Viktor Frankl

Pitanje koje su kroz istoriju postav ljali mnogi filozofi, egzistencijalisti je – pitanje smisla. Čovek, da bi se osećao dobro u sopstvenoj koži, nužno postavlja sebi, bar ponekad, pitanje o smislu bivstvovanja, aktiv nosti, mišljenja... Odgovor ponekad pronalazimo, a ponekad ostaje u maglovitoj budućnosti koja traži

okvire u principima vere i religije, samosvesti, potvrde značajnih drugih ili ličnih uvida. Ne postoji garancija da će ikad dobijeni odgovor ili uvid zadovoljiti našu radoznalost i bazičnu potragu za smislom, posebno kada se osoba nađe u fazi životnih poteškoća, bilo psiholoških, socijalnih ili egzisten cijalnih. Sistem vrednosti se, pose bno u savremenom dobu, sve više razlikuje i na individualnom i na globalnom nivou. Ali, sa druge strane, upravo kada smo u najtežim situacijama, okol nost da smo, čak i tada, u moguć nosti da nekome pomognemo, os nažuje naše potencijale i resurse za lične borbe. Poznata rečenica „Kad ne možeš da pomogneš sebi – po mozi onome kome možeš“, vraća nas na Franklovu školu psihologi je/psihoterapije (Logoterapija) koja se prepoznaje kroz princip Odraz volje za smislom, sa posebnim ak centom na (samo)odgovornost, pri čemu je, kako sam Frankl ukazuje: „Čoveku za zdravlje neophodnije

stanje težnje i borbe za cilj kojeg je dostojan.“ Dostojnost cilja biramo sami. Sistem visokih i poželjnih vrednosti je prepoznat i dovoljno transparentan, počev od individual nih principa pa do velikih sistema. Prepoznat je u religiji, u običnoj svakodnevnici, u umetnosti. Setimo se sjajnog filma „Prosledi dalje“ (Pay It Forward, Kevin Spa cey) i dečaka sa jednostavnom plemenitom idejom da svak učini po tri dobra dela, šireći ciklično dobročiniteljstvo. Poziv na humanost može imati razna imena koja će mu dodeliti moderno doba. Sva ta imena, odno sno značenja, u biti predstavljaju puteve ka istom cilju, a on je – ostati čovek u svakoj situaciji. Brinuti o bližnjima, ali i onima koji to nisu, kada za to imamo mogućnosti, jer – volja bi trebalo da postoji u svima nama. Biti i ostati plemenit i dostojan čovek

znači mnogo više od pukog uspeha ili preživljavanja, mnogo više od filozofskih pitanja. Pridržavajući se principa onoga što se danas naziva društvena, ali i lična odgovornost prema sebi, drugima i životu, više nego ikada postaje ultimatum po stojanja, pa i opstanka ljudske vrste.

expert opinion

Corporate Social Responsibility

By Helping Others, We Actually Help Ourselves Dragana Deh, Psychology MSc, Systemic Therapist, Life Coach

The term corporate social responsibility itself is becoming increasingly relevant, although still evolving. The trend among today’s smaller and larger companies – as well as other institutions – of building the corporate social responsibility seg ment continues to grow, becoming a principle that speaks to the principles of so lidarity, morals, ethical business, growth, and impacts on the corporate and wider communities – those that reflect general business success. The awareness of overall responsi bility at different levels of business is becoming a professional impera tive of action even in small systems, as well as the biggest ones such as government institutions, and the state itself. However, at the core of any awareness and responsibil ity – the foundation dwells in the individual. Today, this individual is called a responsible person, but every individual recognizes the common and personal value frameworks that shape actions towards others. The psychological perspective rec ognizes, among others, the aspects of self-esteem, self-efficacy, and the need for respect by others as particularly important. These fac

tors further significantly influence confidence and of course creating one’s image in one’s own eyes, as well as those of others. Although we often hear people say that they don’t care what others think about them, these statements are not rooted in truth. In essence, every one cares very much about the opinions of others, and everyone – in their own unique way – tries to project as best image as possible to the world, even (at times) when they’re not happy with themselves. Staying within the psychological standpoint, let’s take a quick look at growing up and remember the youngest members of our society – children. One of the developmen tal stages of earliest childhood

SEE Business Travel & Meetings magazine · Oct 2018–Feb 2019

entails the child’s negative respon se to anything that is offered. Although this stage is often irritat ing to parents, it is part of develop ment and as such is entirely appro priate. After some time, in place of “NO!” comes acceptance, respond ing with “YES” to the parents and environment’s suggestions, but the reasoning behind the spoken yes is yes, because that makes me good! It makes others accept me, love me, reward me... Only after this stage, according to research, usually around the third year, the child starts responding with the socalled “wilful YES.” Even very young children feel the need to be good in order to be accepted. Growing up and especially active adult age place this segment at the very top

of socially desirable traits, often making them decisive, both for social contacts and for professio nal development and career. This does not imply obedience, but instead the category of nobility, cooperativeness, and empathy – sensitivity to the needs of others, willingness to help, forgoing preju dices, stereotypes, and all forms of discrimination, as well as active participation in humanitarian activities. Whether every man is born with the capacity to do good is a ques tion that provokes conflicting answers. It’s widely known that no generalization leads to truth, which means that we can’t classify people into noble ones or those who are not. It is certain that every average person holds personal resources for accountability and for good deeds. And the fact is that doing for others is doing for ourselves. In this instance, the stimulus is not (most often) need for others to recognize us as good, thoughtful beings, but rather the good and sometimes empowering feeling that comes from doing something

o p i n i o n

positive. By helping others, we actually help ourselves, whether we recognize it as the driving mo tive or not. Noble acts boost self-esteem and trigger the “mechanism” of nobility that every – again, average – person has. Although in every act we can identify the instrumental motive (“I am doing something with the specific aim to (in)directly benefit from it”), the willingness to do something for others itself in fact makes us better people. In other words, our life gets a very specific meaning!

thinking... Sometimes the answer is found, and sometimes it remains in the hazy future that seeks structu res in the principles of faith and religion, self-awareness, confirma tion of significant personal or other insights. There is no guarantee that any response or insight we obtain would ever satiate our curiosity and basic search for meaning, especi ally when a person is facing life’s struggles – whether psychological, social, or existential. Value systems, especially in the modern age, are increasingly diverging both indivi dually and globally.

The question of meaning

On the other hand, precisely when we are in the most difficult situati ons, the circumstance that, even then, we are able to help someone strengthens our potentials and resources for personal struggles. The famous sentence “When you can’t help yourself – help those you can” brings us back to Frankl’s school of psychology/psychothera py (logotherapy), which is identifi ed through the principle reflection of will to meaning, with a special focus on (self) accountability, as Frankl notes: “What man actually needs is not a tensionless state but

“Ultimately, man should not ask what the meaning of his life is, but rather he must recognize that he is who is being asked. And the truth comes forward on its own and does not need an intermediary.”

Victor Frankl

A question that many philosophers existentialists have raised throug hout history is the question of meaning. A person, in order to feel good in their own skin, necessarily wonders, at least sometimes, abo ut the question of being, doing,

rather a striving and struggling for a worthwhile goal.” We are the ones who define a goal’s wort hiness. The system of high and desirable values is recognized and sufficiently transparent, starting from individu al principles to large systems. It is recognized in religion, in everyday life, in art. Think of the excellent Pay It Forward, with Kevin Spacey, and the boy with a simple noble idea for every person to do three good deeds, spreading cyclical kindness. A call to humanity can have different names assigned by the modern age. All these names, or meanings, essentially represent paths towards the same goal, which is to stay human in every situation. Taking care of loved ones, as well as others, when we have the opportunity, because willingness should exist in all of us. Being and remaining a noble and worthy person means far more than mere

success or survival, far more than philosophical questions. Staying to the principles of what is today called social and personal respon sibility towards oneself, to others, and to life is more than ever beco ming the ultimatum of existence and even survival of mankind.

Ali, i da pomognu onima kojima je pomoć zaista najpotrebnija. Donacije su uvek opcija i verovatno najčešći oblik korporativne druš tvene odgovornosti zbog manjka vremena. Sve ostalo zahteva orga nizaciju. Ipak, iako sve to već znate, uzmite u obzir i organizovanje tim bildinga u humanitarne svrhe, a mi ćemo se potruditi da vam predlozi ma u daljem tekstu pomognemo. Detnjstvo je, kažu, najbezbrižniji period života. Sećamo ga se, uglav nom, sa osmehom J. Isto, ako ne i bolje od onog koje smo mi imali, treba da obezbedimo i današnjoj deci. Svojoj i tuđoj. A nažalost, puno njih treba našu pomoć. I bezbroj je načina na koje im može mo pomoći. Jedan od njih je obez beđivanje i poklanjanje igračaka. Ali, koje su ručno pravljene! Ovaj tim bilding čak možete i organizo vati u saradnji sa nekim od domovi ma za nezbrinutu decu. Kako je ovo zamišljeno? Izbrojte ljude koji će u ovom izazovu učestvovati, a koji za

zadatak ima pravljenje igračaka pa ih podelite u timove koje broje isti ili približno isti broj učesnika. Treba da na raspolaganju imaju nekoliko dana da istraže kakve sve igračke mogu da naprave. Tu im mogu pomoći razni video klipovi na youtube-u. Svaka grupa treba da organizatoru prijavi šta će mu tačno od materijala biti potreb no da bi napravio određenu igračku i da to ponese sa sobom na dan kada se ova tim bilding aktivnost organizuje. Na raspolaganju mogu imati sat vremena. A deca kojoj ćete igračke donirati će biti sudije i odlučiti o pobedniku, tj. izabrati najlepšu igračku. Možete se sa njima dogovoriti i da vam oni sami naprave diplome za prva tri mesta. Nema lepše stvari na svetu od deči jeg osmeha, tu se svi slažemo! Kako za najmlađe treba obezbediti bezbrižno detinjstvo, i za one stare treba obezbediti što bezbrižniju

starost. Ako zbog ničeg drugog, onda zbog toga su nam, ipak, oni omogućili da sada uživamo u svemu što sada imamo. Kao znak male zah valnosti. Zajedno, timski, uz pomoć svojih kolega raspitajte se o starijim osobama koje žive same i nemaju pomoć oko svakodnevnih stvari poput odlaska u nabavku, na pri mer, ili sadnje cveća ispred zgrada u kojima žive. Sigurno ćete se setiti i nekoga iz svog komšiluka. Podelite se i dogovorite da tog određenog dana za njih obavite te stvari. Takođe, kada smo kod ove teme, možete se i organizovati i srediti neki park, zasaditi drvo ili urediti dvorište nekog ko to ne može sam da uradi. Još jedan od primera jeste onaj kojim možete pomoći lokalnu za jednicu kada se odlučite za lokaciju svojih tim bilding aktivnosti. Prvo se dobro raspitajte o karakte ristikama iste jer ona za cilj ima

angažovanje lokalne radne snage i korišćenje lokalnih namirnica i sastojaka. Istražite čime se ljudi tamo bave, šta je za njih specifično, šta proizvode, na koji način, po čemu je ta regija poznata. Zašto ne biste npr. naučili da pravite sir, štrikate, spremate ribu na određeni način, ručno pravite neke predme te, spremate ajvar? U tome vam može pomoći upravo neko od lokalnog stanovništva. Taj neko bi na početku mogao da objasni ceo proces izrade ili pripreme i tim koji najbrže izvrši zadatak ili po njego vom mišljenju najbolje, proglašava se pobednikom. Ako ste spremali neku hranu, zapakovane ostatke i neiskorišćene proizvode možete donirati upravo lokalcima, a ako se radilo o pravljenju nekog predmeta, ostatak materijala možete ponuditi nekoj lokalnoj radionici koja se tim poslom bavi i kojoj bi to bilo korisno. I na kraju, uvek možete organizo vati odlazak u neku od škola kojoj je potrebno krečenje, neke sitne prepravke ili popravke. Pogotovo ako se radi o školama koje se nala ze u unutrašnjosti i koje nemaju ve liki broj učionica i prostorija. U za visnosti od broja učionica, podelite

ljude u grupe i spremite za svaki tim materijale za krečenje, farbu za bojenje stolova i stolica i sijalice za zamenu. U dogovoreno vreme sve grupe počinju sa radom. Ona grupa koja najbrže završi sa krečenjem, farbanjem i sređivanjem je pobed nik u ovom takmičenju. Na mikro planu, vi kao individua, možete uraditi puno stvari za svoju zajednicu. Počnite tako što ćete se svakom osmehnuti. Kupujte namirnice na pijaci od lokalnih prodavaca, pomozite starijoj osobi ako primetite da joj je pomoć po trebna, podržite san nekog deteta, iznenadite svog kolegu nekim lepim

gestom, pridržite nekom vrata pri ulasku u zgradu. Najvrednije je ono što se ne može kupiti novcem – nečiji osmeh i osećaj zahvalnosti. Zato, razmislite o temi za sledeći tim bilding koji treba da organizu jete. Prijavite svoju ekpiu za trčanje maratona u dobrotvorne svrhe. Pomozite da se nečiji dom izgradi. Donirajte odeću i hranu.

Helping Others Is a Team Building at a Global Level It is quite clear why the increasing number of companies decide on socially responsible activities lately. Those help people to strengthen the relations, get to know each other, strengthen the communication, improve it, drive it to per fection. They learn about each other something they did not know until then. But, also, they help those to whom the help is most needed. Donations are always an option and probably the most common form of corporate social responsi bility (CSR) due to the lack of time. Everything else requires an or ganization. However, although you already know this, please, consider also the organizing of a team buil ding for humanitarian purposes, and we will make the efforts to as sist you with the suggestions given in the text that follows. Childhood, as the people say, is the most enjoyable period of life. We remember it, mostly, with a smile J. We should also provide the same childhood, if not the better than the one we had, to the present children. To our children and the children of the others. And, unfortunately, a lot of them need our help. But there are co untless ways in which we can help them. One of those is providing

and giving toys. But, those handmade! You can even organize this team building in cooperation with some of the shelters for children. How is this imagined? Count the people who will take part in this challenge, which includes a task of making toys, divide them into teams that count the same, or approximately the same, number of participants. They need to have a few days to explore what kind of toys they can make. They can use for help the various video clips on YouTube. Each group shall commu nicate to the organizer the materi als they will need to make a certain toy and take it with them on the day that this team activity will be organized. They can have an hour at their disposal. And the children whom you will donate the toys will be the judges and shall decide on the winner, i.e. choose the most beautiful toy.

You can make the arrangement with them so the kids make you diplomas for the first three places. There is no more beautiful thing in the world than a child’s smile, we all agree on that! As a carefree childhood shall be ensured for the youngest, the old people should be ensured the most carefree old age as well. If for no other reason, then for the reason that they allowed us to enjoy now in everything we have. As a sign of a small appreciation. Together, as a team, with the as sistance of your colleagues, ask around about the old people who live alone and do not have the sup port with the everyday issues like going to shopping, for example, or planting flowers in front of build ings they live in. You will surely come to someone from your own neighborhood. Group yourselves

and arrange to do these things for them on that particular day. Also, considering this topic, you can organize yourselves and tide up a park, plant a tree, or arrange a courtyard of someone who can not do it by himself. Another example is that you can provide assistance for the local community when you decide on the location of your team building activities. Firstly, ask around well of its characteristics because it aims to engage local workforce and use local foodstuff and ingredients. You shall explore what people are doing there, what’s specific for them, what they produce, in which manner, what is that region known for. Why not learn, for example, how to make cheese, how to knit, prepare fish dish in a particular way, manually make some items, and cook the chutney? You can be helped out with these by one of the local inhabitants. He could, at first, explain you the entire process of production or preparation, and the team that is the fastest in the accomplishment of the task or, at his opinion, is the best, shall be announced the winner. If you have prepared some food, you can do nate packed remains and unused products to the locals, and if you have manufactured a particular item, you can offer the rest of the material to a local workshop that deals with such an activity and that could make use of it.

at the agreed time. The group that is the fastest in finishing the paint ing, dyeing and arranging shall be the winner in this competition. At a micro level, you as an individual can do a lot of things for your com munity. Start by giving everyone a smile. Shop for groceries from local retailers, help the elderly if you find that they need help, support a child’s dream, surprise your colle ague with some nice gesture, hold a door for someone at the entrance to the building. The most valuable things are the ones that can not be

Finally, you can always arrange to go to some of the schools that need painting, some minor renovations or repairs. Especially when it comes to schools that are in the interior territory and do not have large number of class rooms and rooms. Depending on the number of classrooms, divide people into groups and prepare for each of those the painting materi als, dye for painting the tables and chairs, and replacement bulbs. All the groups shall start working

bought with money – someone’s smile and a feeling of gratitude. Therefore, think about this topic for the next team building that you need to organize. Apply your team for running a marathon for charity. Help build someone’s home. Donate clothes and food. Yes, the list can go on and on end lessly. So, let the time of “giving” happen every day.

Izlivanje akrilnih boja na platno Najbolje je da ovu aktivnost radite na terasi ili bašti, ali ako ih nemate, poslužiće i trpe zarijski sto na koji treba da stavite mušemu, najb olje neku staru, kako biste ga zaštitili. U svaku plastičnu času sipajte drugu akrilnu boju, po izboru. Najbolje je da na mušemu prethodno stavite rešetku za pečenje iz rerne, pa na to kanvas platno, kako bi sav višak boje mogao da curi sa platna bez da umažete celo platno. A ukoliko želite, možete i sipa ti nekoliko raz ličitih boja, jednu preko druge, sa ili bez naknadnog mešanja, zajedno u jednu čašu. Ako vam se učini da je boja previše gust a, slobodno dodajte i malo vode kako biste razblažil i. Recimo da gustina treba da bude kao kod smese koju pravite za palačinke.

Kada se odlučite za boje koje ćete kori stiti, lagano ih sipajte po platnu. Boja treba da se razliva po inerciji, a vi je možete, po želji i usm eravati – gore, dole, levo, desno. Važno je samo da to radite sporo i ne naglo. Špatulom za kolače, ili četk icom za premazivanje kiflica, možete išarati površinu platna dok je boja još sveža ili napraviti nek e oblike. Ili ih možete umočiti u drugu boju i nan eti je preko. Svejedno je. Pustite da vas inspiracija koju dobijete u trenutku vodi!

A možete probati i ovo U jednu plastičnu čašu sasvim polako sipajte boje, jednu preko druge, bez dodatnog mešanja. Ukoliko želite da iskoristite više boja ili nijansi, sipajte što manje količine. Naš predlog je da nakon dodavanja dve do tri boje, stavite i malo bele, pa nastavite sa sipanjem sledeće dve do tri boje i tako dok ne završite. Na centar, ili gde želite, postavite malu metalnu cediljku i u nju lagano sipajte sadržaj iz čase. Pustite da boje cure kroz rupice. Višak će se automatski sliti na mušemu, a da biste pokrili celu površinu kanvasa, možete malo us meriti boju, kao što smo objasnili u pasusu iznad, a ona će se širiti u koncentričnim krugovima. Rukama, na kojima imate rukavice!, možete višak koji se sliva razmazati po ivicama platna, tamo gde je potrebno, kako biste prekrili beline, ukoliko ih ne želite. Još jedna ideja: uzmite parče providne, samolepljive kuhinjske folije, koje nije preveliko, i malo ga zgužvajte. Dok je boja još uvek sveža, tapkajte folijom po njoj.

Boje će se još više pomešati i dobićete mnoštvo različi tih, apstraktnih i valovitih oblika. Sve ovo možete uraditi na vinil ploči, umesto na kanvas platnu. Tehnike su iste. Vaše „remek delo“ bi trebalo da bude potpuno suvo za neka tri dana i tada ga možete okačiti na zid ili staviti na mesto koje ste mu namenili.

Treći način Pre nego što se odlučite da očistite svoju mušemu od viška boja koje su iscurele i bacite ostatke boje iz plastičnih časa, kazaćemo vam STANITE! J Ovo sve možete iskoristiti za novu sliku, a evo i kako. Višak boje koji vam je ostao prospite na mušemu i pomešajte sa ostatkom boje koje se nalazi na njoj. Uzmite kanvas platno i „licem“ ga umočite u to. Zatim ga „utrljajte“ i ispomerajte u raznim pravcima. Kada ga budete podigli, videćete da ćete dobiti vrlo in teresantne oblike i nijanse. Savršeno nesavršena slika! I ne brinite, akrilne boje se lako skidaju sa mušeme J. Sunđer natopite vodom i nekim sredstvom za čišćenje, razređivačem ili etil-acetatom i obrišite je. Ukoliko planirate da ovu aktivnost sprovedete u kom paniji u kojoj radite, evo nekoliko predloga šta biste

mogli da uradite sa slikama. Organizujte korporativnu izložbu ili aukciju i sav novac donirajte u dobrotvorne svrhe. A možete ih i pokloni nekoj humanitarnoj orga nizaciji, domu za nezbrinutu decu, bolnici ili narodnoj kuhinji. Kao i svemu novom što probate, možda nećete odmah dobiti očekivane rezultate. Ali nikako se nemojte ose ćati obeshrabreno! Umesto toga, probajte opet i opet i opet. Pa još jednom. Uključite i članove svoje porodi ce ili prijatelje u ovu zabavnu aktivnost. Deca će joj se posebno radovati. Uživajte i zabavljajte se! I setite se da se savršenstvo postiže vežbom J. Milica Novak

Pouring acr ylic colors on canvas It’s the best to do this activity on the terrace or in the garden, but if you do not have one , you can also make use of a dining table with an oilcl oth on, the best an old one, to protect it. Pour a different acrylic color in each plastic glass, by your cho ice. It is best to put a baking oven grill be forehand, and a canvas onto it then, so that any excess of paint can leak from the canvas without losing the whole canvas. And if you want, you can also pour several different colors, one over the other, with or without subsequent mixing, together in one glass. If it turns out that the color is too thick, feel free to add some water

And you can try this, too In one plastic glass, slowly pour the paints, one over the other, without any additional mixing. If you want to use more colors or shades, pour as little portions as possib le. Our suggestion is that after adding two to three colors, put in a little bit of white, and then continue pouring the next two to three colors and so on until you finish it. At the center, or where you want, place a small metal colander and gently pour the content from the glass. Let the colors flow through the holes. The extra color will automatically slip onto the oil cloth, and in order to cover the entire surface of the canvas, you can slightly focus on the color, as we ex plained in the paragraph above, and it will spread in concentric circles. With your hands, with the gloves on!, you can smear the excess on the edges of the canvas, where necessary, to cover the whites, if you do not want them to be there.

to dilute it. Let’s say the density shou ld be like the mixture you prepare for pancakes. When you decide on the colors to use, lightly pour them onto the canvas. The color shou ld be spilled by inertia, and you can, if desired, direct it – up, down, left, right. It’s only important that you do it slowly and not abruptly. You can wipe the surface of the canvas with a spatula for cakes or brush for rolls coating while the color is still fresh or make some shapes. Or you can dip them in a different color and apply it over. Whatever. Let the inspiration you get at the moment lead you!

Another idea: take a piece of trans parent, self-adhesive kitchen foil, which is not a too large, and crumble it just a little bit. While the color is still fresh, tap the foil over it. The colors will be even more mixed and you will get a variety of different, abstract and wavy shapes. You can do all this on a vinyl board instead of a canvas. The techniques are the same. Your “masterpiece” should be completely dry in three days, and then you can hang it on the wall or put it in the place you’ve planned for it.

The third way Before you decide to clean your oilcloth of excess colors that have been drained, and throw away the remains of paint from plastic glasses, we will tell just STOP! J You can use all of these for a new picture, and here comes how you can do it. The excess of the color left behind you should pour onto the oilcloth and mix it with the rest of the color that is already on it. Take the canvas and dip it therein with its “face” side. Then “rub” it and move into various directions. When you raise it, you will see that you will get very interesting shapes and tones. Perfectly imperfect picture! And don’t you worry, acrylic colors are easy to be removed from the oilcloth J. Sprinkle the sponge with water and some cleaning agent, diluent or ethyl acetate and wipe it.

If you are planning to perform this activity in the company you are working in, here are some suggesti ons what to do with the pictures. Organize a corporate exhibition or an auction, and donate all the money for charity. Or you can give those to a humanitarian organization, a place for homeless children, a hospital or a national kitchen. Like in anything new you try, you may not immediately get the expected results. But do not feel discouraged! Instead, try again and again and again. And yet again. Include your family members or friends in this fun activity. Children will be especially pleased with it. Enjoy and have fun! And remember that practice makes perfect J. Milica Novak

FAIR TRADE KONCEPT Fair trade koncept zasnovan je na tri društveno-odgovorne premise. Prva je da proizvođači imaju prava da izraze jedinstvo sa potrošačima, druga je da se mora rešiti nejednaka distribucija bogatstva između nacija, a treća se odnosi na kupovinu proizvoda od proizvođača u zemljama koje su u razvoju – cena treba da bude fer jer je to efikasniji način promovisanja održivog razvoja od, recimo, humanitarne pomoći. URBANO I ZELENO Zelena urbana područja olakšavaju fizičku aktivnost i opuštanje i formiraju utočište od buke. Drveće proizvode kiseonik i pomažu u filtriranju štetnog zagađenja vazduha, uključujući čestice prašine u vazduhu. Urbani parkovi i bašte igraju ključnu ulogu u hlađenju gradova, a takođe obezbeđuju sigurne rute za pešačenje i biciklizam, kao i lokacije za fizičku aktivnost, društvenu interakciju i rekreaciju.

Ecolabel Ecolabel je sistem označavanja koje je EU osnovala 1973. godine i namenjena je širokom spektru proizvoda, od glavnih oblasti proizvodnje do usluga turističkog smeštaja. Komisija predlaže politike i zakone koji štite prirodno okruženje, održavaju čist vazduh i vodu, osiguravaju pravilno odlaganje otpada, poboljšavaju znanje o toksičnim hemikalijama i pomažu preduzećima da se kreću ka održivoj ekonomiji. ZELENI SERTIFIKAT Zeleni sertifikat – terminologija koja se pretežno koristi u Evropi, ali sada postaje sve rasprostranjenija – određena električna energija se generiše korišćenjem obnovljivih izvora energije. Ono što se definiše kao „obnovljivo“ varira od šeme trgovanja certifikatom do šeme trgovanja. Obično se smatra da se radi o sledećim izvorima: vetar, solarna energija, talasi, geotermalna energija, hidroenegrija i biomasa. FSC FSC (The Forest Stewardship Council) je međunarodna neprofitna organizacija osnovana 1993. godine radi promovisanja odgovornog upravlja nja svetskim šumama. FSC to radi tako što postavlja standarde o šumskim proizvodima, uz potvrdu i označavanje kao ekološke. Njihova misija jeste da „promoviše ekološki prihvatljivo, društveno korisno i ekonomski održivo upravljanje šumama u svetu“. UNESCO UNESCO (Organizacija Ujedinjenih nacija za obrazovanje, nauku i kulturu) je agencija Ujedinjenih nacija sa sedištem u Parizu. Njena svrha je da doprinese miru i bezbednosti promovisanjem međunarodne saradnje kroz obrazovne, naučne i kulturne reforme kako bi se povećalo univerzalno poštovanje pravde, vladavine prava i ljudskih prava, zajedno sa slobodom koju garantuje Povelja Ujedinjenih nacija. AMBASADORI ODRŽIVOG RAZVOJA I ŽIVOTNE SREDINE Ambasadori održivog razvoja i životne sredine je strukovno udruženje koje deluje u opštem interesu naučno-istraživačkog rada, kao i u javnom interesu u oblastima održivog razvoja, životne sredine i obrazovanja, kroz istraživanja, savetodavstvo, ekspertizu, inovacije, obrazovanje i promociju kulturnih vrednosti. ZERO WASTE HOTEL Zero Waste Hotel je hotel koji koristi i razvijaj strategije i alate ne samo za upravljanje otpadom, već u najvećoj mogućoj meri izbegava samo njegovo stvaranje. Najznačajniji uticaj se postiže smanjivanjem količine otpada koji se šalje na deponiju, sa krajnjim ciljem da ništa ne ostane. Doslovno svaki korak u tom pravcu ima pozitivan uticaj. LOGOTERAPIJA Logoterapija je „lečenje smislom“ koje je osmislio austrijski neurolog i psihijatar Viktor Frankl. Smatrao je da je čovek biće smisla, a ne nagona, niti moći. Cilj logoterapije nije da otkloni unutrašnju napetost. Napetost nije pokazatelj duševne bolesti već je neophodna za duševno zdravlje ukoliko postoji težnja ka nekom vrednom cilju. EUROPEAN GREEN CAPITAL NAGRADA European Green Capital nagrada je priznanje koje Evropska komisija dodeljuje za „zeleni glavni grad“ – grad zasnovan na ekološkom prin cipu.

Američka tajna služba Tajna služba SAD napravljena je sa idejom da reši razne finansijske pre vare, a ne da štiti predsednika. Osnovana je dana kada je predsednik Abraham Linkoln ubijen. Ideja mu je predložena 14. aprila 1865. godi ne, a nekoliko časova kasnije on više nije bio živ. Za 243 godine, koliko postoji, samo je jedan agent stradao dok je obavljao svoju dužnost i štitio je Harija Trumana. Za svakog predsednika SAD-a, tajna služba ima šifrovano ime, a zgrada u kojoj je ova služba smeštena nema nikakvih obeležja. To je sasvim obična zgrada koja se nalazi u Vašingtonu.

Školska pravila Školarci u svetu moraju poštovati različita pravila u zavisnosti od zemlje u kojoj žive. Prvog dana škole u Nemačkoj, deca dobijaju paket, koji samo tu smeju da otvore, u kom se nalaze slatkiši, grickalice, pribor za likovno, knjige i još neke potrepštine. U Holandiji deca kreću u školu onog dana kada napune četiri go dine, bez obzira na dan koji pada. U Finskoj se ne polažu testovi pre 12. godine, a u Brazilu škola počinje u 7 časova ujutro i završava se u podne jer je dece toliko da imaju čak tri smene.

Nikola Tesla – čovek ispred svog vremena

Nikola Tesla. Jedan od najvećih umova svog vremena, ali i sadašnjosti. Rođen je, kažu, oko ponoći između 9. i 10. jula 1856. godine, a pošto je te noći grmelo, babica ga je prozvala „detetom tame“. Njegova maj ka je na to rekla: „Ne! On će biti dete svetlosti!“. Možda će vam zvu čati neverovatno, ali on je ideju za mobilne telefone razvio još 1901. godine iako ona, naravno, nije sprovedena u delo. Naime, Tesla je sa svojim partnerom u poslu, J.P. Morganom radio na posebnoj frekvenci ji koja je trebalo da emituje signal na uređaj koji se drži u ruci.

Čudni zakoni u svetu Poslovica kaže: „Bogat si koliko si putovao.“ Ako ste „svetski putnik“, nije na odmet da znate neke od čudnih zakona koje važe u svetu.

Vašington je zabranio laganje da su vam roditelji bogati, u Teksasu ne smete pucati u bizona sa drugog sprata i gorile ne smete voziti na zadnjem sedištu auta u Masačusetsu.

USA Secret Service was made with idea to solve financial frauds, and not to protect the president. It was found in the day when President Abraham Lincoln was murdered – the idea was presented to him on April 14th 1865, and just few hours later he was not alive. In 243 years, which is the time they operate, only one agent lost his life during the service and he was protecting Harry Truman. For every USA president Secret Service has coded name, and the building they work in has no specified signs or marks. It is a regular building located in Washington.
