To get there, what is needed is leadership political leadership which can give democratic guidance to the development of global governance and the global economy. We need business leadership which goes beyond shareholder value to understand the needs and fears of other stakeholders and their communities. We need leadership in the multilateral system and in civil society. We all have to make an honest effort to look beyond. Governments have to look beyond the next election.
Enterprises have to look beyond the bottom line.
If we all look beyond we may find that the horizon is closer than we think. We all know that in the final analysis, we have more interests in common than those that separate us. At the ILO we are promoting the policies to make that obvious reality a fact of life.
