Attila Chik\u00e1n Jr. was elected to new president by the general assembly of Business Council for Sustainable Development in Hungary.<\/strong> The new president follows Istv\u00e1n Salg\u00f3 CEO of ING Bank in the position, who, according to the assembly\u2019s unanimous decision, will assist BCSDH as an Honorary President. Under Mr. Salg\u00f3\u2019s leadership the organization became a significant player in the recognition of sustainability\u2019s importance in business in Hungary. The number of member companies increased to 72, which altogether are producing close to 30 percent of Hungarian GDP. The goals of Attila Chik\u00e1n Jr. are ensuring the continuity of the ongoing, successful programs; making BCSDH\u2019s activities more tangible and visible for the public and political decision makers; and improving the international relations of the organization.<\/p>\n

The newly elected president\u2019s work will be supported by a four-member board. Its reelected member is Zsolt Jamniczky, vice-presidend of E.ON Hungaria. The three new members are Dr. \u00c1gnes F\u00e1bi\u00e1n, excecutive director of HENKEL Hungary; Zolt\u00e1n Gazsi, executive director of eisberg Hungary; and Dr. Thomas Nareshubert, executive director of BASF Hungaria, elected by the assembly.<\/strong> The mandate of President and the Executive board is for three years.<\/p>\n

The management of BCSDH will still be in the hands of Ir\u00e9n M\u00e1rta, who was elected to director last year, and switched her board delegation to directorate.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe initiated several successful programs during the last six years. \u201cThe Complex Interpretation of Corporate Sustainability\u201d-titled base document provides a guideline for sustainable company operation to domestic leaders. Over a 100 organizations have joined our initiative by the signing the document. The success of our \u201cFuture Leaders Talent Program\u201d is well-shown by the fact that we start the third class this year. In the meantime the Action 2020 Hungary called the business sector for action, to find professional solutions to the challenges come from the basic expectations of sustainable development\u201d \u2013 <\/em>highlighted the largest successes of the previous years\u2019 Istv\u00e1n Salg\u00f3, according to whom, these results do not mean, that the new president will have an easy run, as the organization needs to be improved on numerous fields.<\/p>\n

\u201cRegarding the already started programs, my main task is to keep our momentum, and guarantee the continuity of the current, high-level professional work. I also consider sharing our results and making our activity more visible to the wider public and political decision makers as a crucial task. As Hungary, due to its size, cannot demonstrate major results on the field of sustainable development on its own, I would like to vitalize our regional co-operations and partnerships as well\u201d \u2013 <\/em>outlined his most important tasks Attila Chik\u00e1n Jr., who, as leader of the Action 2020 workgroup and mentor of young leaders, actively participated in BCSDH\u2019s professional work in the previous years. \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n
