Here’s an Idea: The RC Exchange
All associates are encouraged to participate in our associate suggestion program — Here’s an Idea: The RC
Exchange — which is administered by the ICMA‑RC Peer Roundtable. This exchange lets your ideas be heard
and helps effect positive change within the corporation. The Peer Roundtable periodically announces special
suggestion campaigns and encourages associates to submit ideas and suggestions related to that campaign
topic. Handwritten suggestions can be dropped at any time into the boxes provided in the pantries located
throughout our headquarters building. Submissions can also be made via the Peer Roundtable page on our
corporate intranet, or by email to
heresanidea@icmarc.org
.
Members of the Peer Roundtable read, review, and discuss suggestions with the appropriate subject owner.
Responses to suggestions are disseminated via the intranet, “Monday Update,” and/or postings in the
headquarters pantries.
Bring Your Child to Work Day
ICMA‑RC may participate in the nationwide Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day® at its corporate
headquarters. Children between the ages of 8 and 12 can visit ICMA‑RC for an educational day of activities
and interaction. Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work® is a national public education program that connects
what children learn at school with the actual working world.
Mentor Advisory Program (MAP)
ICMA‑RC’s Mentor Advisory Program (MAP) provides an opportunity for qualified associates to gain
experience that can enhance career development and personal growth. In the program, associates work with
ICMA‑RC mentors to identify career goals and design a plan to develop the skills needed to attain those
goals, implement the plan, and evaluate its success. Interested associates can apply for the program or may be
nominated by their manager. Contact your manager or Corporate Learning for more information.
