Pretty much every non-profit organization exists to make the world a better place in one way or another. Most do it by helping specific groups of people. The Conference Board in New York, NY is a bit different. They’re still working in the public interest, but they’re doing it by serving businesses. The Conference Board “provides the world’s leading organizations with the practical knowledge they need to improve their performance and better serve society.” Strong businesses build strong communities (can you say jobs?), so it’s essential that businesses are able to “understand and deal with the most critical issues of our time.” It’s still doing good, even if it’s a bit removed from the kind of work that typical non-profit organizations do.
The Conference Board was founded in 1916 and has been serving businesses ever since (I heard about them from a reader who took a Fellowship with them). They are a membership organization, so they rely on member organizations for funding, and in return they provide a range of products and services. The Conference Board maintain five core values (Relevance, Openness, Collaboration, Innovation, and Integrity) and focuses on four key topic areas (Corporate Leadership; Economies, Markets & Value Creation; High-Performing Organizations; and Human Capital). If you’re fascinated by the more academic side of business, then you should definitely check out The Conference Board’s Jobs. Right now they have a number of positions available for new and recent grads including Member Services Coordinator (and a 2nd posting), Webcast and Multi-Media Production Specialist, Experiential Programs Coordinator, Corporate Citizenship and Sustainability Researcher, and Public & Media Relations Manager. There are quite a few options, so check them out.
