There is an increasing debate and worry about how to keep the country competitive. Overall the discussions seem to be about flexibility of the workforce, flexibility in the level of salaries etc. aka employees should be willing to work more & cheaper. Pretty simple formula and makes sense - work is cheaper in other countries than in your own. M.O.T. ? Or is it ...
Even though I'm not really a "fan" of remembering my old army times, the learnings from that period are now starting to make ever greater sense. Somehow army (and in it's extreme war) highlights how with working, truly involved and trusting leadership one can make 1+1 be much more than 2 whereas at the same time even the best equipped troops can produce much less than 2 under bad leadership. History is just filled with examples to prove this.
In order to sustain competitivness shouldn't we concentrate in truly engaging people to bring out their natural flexibility (in terms of time but most importantly in terms of commitment) ? Shouldn't we become the number 1 country in terms of leadership and thus individual commitment and trust to quarantee that working teams would truly sustain competitive?
