Developed nations have made the transition. Emerging ones are already reforming their industries, transitioning from a government-centric control of key sectors to one that features private equity, vertical clusters, and balance. Global public/private partnership is the recommended path, and degrees of control are shifting from public direction to private sectors across regions. By 2010, governments and enterprises workforce will be at least one-fourth smaller than they were at the beginning of the millennium. The nature and speed of reform will depend on the execution style, global partnerships, and competitiveness infrastructure of your organization. This Initiative analyzes the critical transition decisions you must make in the next four to five years to shift to new sources of growth, and achieve sustainable edge in information and communication technology, contact centers, advanced manufacturing and tourism, and advises how to address them.
