30 September 2004

The Deputy-Secretary-General sends a note dated 30 September 2004 to the UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan and expresses the content of survey findings mentioning several issues such as: weaknesses in management expertise, perceived lack of accountability throughout the Organization, the need for more training opportunities- particularly to enhance managerial abilities, undue influence of Member States on recruitment decisions and limited career opportunities for general service staff and lack of transparency in EOSG decisions affecting staff.

Note: Handwritten note by Kofi Annan: " To the DSG [Louise Frechette] Thank you for organizing the meeting. I believe quarterly meetings will help improve communication. I may join occasionally. Do revert after the senior level group meeting. KA 1/10."
