For 65 years, Aspen Institute Seminars have challenged leaders from all sectors to think more deeply, listen more attentively, and develop the critical habits of judgment that contribute to humane decisions and a life well lived. Aspen Institute Seminars begin and end with questions rather than answers, because seasoned leaders know that the most difficult decisions depend upon the capacity to inquire and to see matters in a different light.

For 65 years, Aspen Institute Seminars have challenged leaders from all sectors to think more deeply, listen more attentively, and develop the critical habits of judgment that contribute to humane decisions and a life well lived. Aspen Institute Seminars begin and end with questions rather than answers, because seasoned leaders know that the most difficult decisions depend upon the capacity to inquire and to see matters in a different light. Rather than presenting a specific formula for success, Aspen Institute Seminars are conducted as text-based dialogues in which a highly-trained facilitator guides participants through an exploration of fundamental personal and institutional values and their contemporary organizational applications. Aspen programs are highly interactive and depend upon all of the participants having read the material in advance and being willing to participate fully in the roundtable seminars.

NAIC Foundations: Is human capital the only thing (becoming and) remaining important?
Medium ; Total Croatia News
This paper attempts to answer questions such as: What is human capital, and what does it consist of? How can human capital be assessed, and what are the differences between countries? Problems that countries face when they do not have a human capital coherent with development needs and how to solve them. The ratio of human capital and the speed of development in some critical areas of new technologies. How much do entrepreneurs invest in human capital?

The History of Money — Part 1
Medium ; Total Croatia News
We live in the times of the fastest changes ever. The financial sector, although rigid and regulated itself, is also facing different changes. With rumours of upcoming recession even before the COVID-19 crisis, and especially with the number of concerns that we are facing at the moment, it seems a good time to immerse ourselves in the pool of historical review. Hopefully, this will give us better perspective of our current situation, and maybe we will learn something useful for the future.

Entrepreneurs Do Not Trust Croatian Justice System
Medium ; Total Croatia News
UGP conducted several surveys among its members on the topic of the justice system. The results are devastating, but unfortunately, expected. The slow and inefficient judicial system is also, according to entrepreneurs, one of the main problems of Croatian society. The UGP believes that legal reform should be one of the first reforms of the new Government.

GP Pulse: Elections 2020 — Entrepreneurial Spring

It is only a few weeks until the new parliamentary elections. UGP’s attitude was clear. We thought that, just like most entrepreneurs, elections were scheduled too early. Political structures were focused on them, not at solving one of the world’s largest health and economic crisis. We are afraid that politicians again looked only at their interests and calculated what’s most cost-effective for them, instead of demonstrating state potential and solving general social importance issues, for…

Political structures were focused on them, not at solving one of the world’s largest health and economic crisis. We are afraid that politicians again looked only at their interests and calculated what’s most cost-effective for them, instead of demonstrating state potential and solving general social importance issues, for which they received a mandate and for which they are paid.

Stereotypes and prejudices: Who are Croatian entrepreneurs, “really”?
Medium
The topic of Croatian entrepreneurs and their negative public perception in a part of the public is a part of a broader history of the private sector in a transition country. Various economic, psychological, and social aspects are mixed, and partially the influence of ideologically formed stereotypes. However, it seems that the perception created over a long time, through anecdotal evidence and the actions of interest groups, is far from reality. Now, perhaps, the turn of events is such that it…

A Brief History of the Most Devastating Earthquakes - Part 1
Medium
In the aftermath of the Zagreb 2020 earthquake, many questions have arisen, and to answer some of them I again turned to history experts. It seems that earthquakes claimed millions of lives only in the last 100 years, and surprisingly unlike in many other areas, improvements in technology “have only slightly reduced the death toll”. They are dispersed around the world in the critical areas, and they did force us to build in a smarter way. In the past we attributed their causes to many different…
In the aftermath of the Zagreb 2020 earthquake, many questions have arisen, and to answer some of them I again turned to history experts. It seems that earthquakes claimed millions of lives only in the last 100 years, and surprisingly unlike in many other areas, improvements in technology “have only slightly reduced the death toll”. They are dispersed around the world in the critical areas, and they did force us to build in a smarter way. In the past we attributed their causes to many different things, and today we have much clearer scientific information about their origins, yet, it seems they still make us feel helpless. How did our ancestors deal with all those questions? Hopefully we will get some answers in my interview with Mirko Sardelić.

The invitation was addressed to Croats living in more than 30 countries around the world, and 17 countries were present. It was attended by more than 200 participants, of which 47 participants were from the diaspora.Other creatorsSee project -

The second one is to present to audience how to start up and develop business through entrepreneurial culture and modern technology, help them anticipate future trends, source capital and reach investors.
Additionally, models of such national economies will be presented, ensuring the sustainable economic success with their innovative approach and "start up" mentality, which can serve as a role model in developing national economy, cities and regions in Croatia.
The motive is to facilitate changes in values and habits, changes in majority of population lacking initiative, creativity and openness for new business ideas and opportunities, what makes the current economic situation in Croatia even worse.Other creatorsSee project -
