As countries around the world seek to enhance their economies while facing the challenges of climate change and income inequality, national competitiveness is an important marker of the related strengths and weaknesses that policymakers will need to address. Among the existing reports on national competitiveness and rankings, such as IMD World Competitiveness Yearbook and WEF Global Competitiveness Report, there are sizable discrepancies in the ranking order for the same countries. As a result, confusion arises as such an outcome creates difficulties for government officials when translating these findings into real-world policies.

 

The reality is that these discrepancies are due to the differences in logic and analytical models used by IMD and WEF. Therefore, in recognizing such problems and limitations, The Competitiveness of Nations 2 presents the IPS model as a new approach. Building on from Michael Porter's diamond model, it demonstrates a robust set of methodologies as well as offers several key policy implications for economies around the world that wish to enhance their competitiveness.

 

The analytical tools used in this book can be further utilized for other units of analysis such as industries and individual firms. As this book provides a series of sophisticated methodologies and specific guidelines for enhancing national competitiveness, both academics and practitioners can derive useful implications.

 

This annual book series was launched in 2021 and has included timely topics and in-depth discussion on national competitiveness. The first edition dealt with the COVID-19 global pandemic and the US-China trade war as its key focus. For this second edition, the Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) issue has been selected given its growing impact on strategic decision-making at both firm and country levels for sustainable competitiveness. This edition explores the development of ESG in various regions including Asia (Japan, Korea, India), Europe (Russia), Latin America (Peru), and Africa (Sub-Saharan Africa). It addresses how firms can contribute to ESG, and what governments should do to incentivize or regulate firms' engagement in its practices.

Nice flat bill hat
Size: One Size, Color: White
My husband says this is a comfortable hat. It was a little hard to shape up when it arrived, but overall the quality of the hat is nice. Nice and white and a mesh back to it. The design is a burnt orange color. Nice fit and adjustable in the back.

I’d definitely call this a unisex hat, I like it as much as my husband does! Nice true white, the embroidery is great and it’s a classic style. This is very well made and comfortable, I would purchase in additional colors!

Yeehaw Energy Activated
Size: One Size, Color: White
Put this on and suddenly I feel like I need to buy a truck and start two-stepping. Sharp design, solid fit, and the spurs logo gives just enough Western flair without yelling “rodeo clown.” One star off because the white gets dirty faster than a cowboy’s boots after a rainstorm. Still, great hat if you're chasing cowboy cool. Also, have had a few people ask where I got the Texas Longhorns hat...
