Employee Voice has completed phase 1 and allows organizations worldwide to share ideas internally. Phase 2, Global Idea Share, will allow proven, successfully implemented ideas to be easily shared among organizations globally. This will leverage Employee Voice's technique of crowdsourcing ideas within an organization and enable sharing ideas that have been proven successful. The process involves employees suggesting ideas, donating successful ideas to an idea store, other organizations importing relevant ideas to evaluate, and donating their own successes. This expands innovation and problem solving by allowing more people worldwide to work on improving life.

UK councils are empowered by the Local Government Act 2000 to play an international role, and a number are
already active in the field. As exemplars of good practice in public sector management & service delivery, UK
councils are widely respected overseas.
And by playing a part in international development, UK councils are also contributing to the strengthening of
local government internationally. The UK Government, like all other Commonwealth Governments, has formally
committed to the Commonwealth Principles on Good Practice for Local Democracy and Good Governance (the
Aberdeen Agenda as core principles to promote local democracy and good governance.
Our intention is that Council National Idea Share will in future make a meaningful contribution to this agenda
