Analysis of country’s competitiveness factors based on inter-state rating comparisons

Abstract

Within the framework of the research was conducted an analysis of the modern level and problems of development of competitiveness, taking into account various aspects and system of advantages. In the article it was proved that despite the wide elucidation of the conceptual apparatus, methodological bases and ways of ensuring the competitive advantages of the respective objects of research, single, generalized point of view on this subject today doesn’t exist. It was done the analysis of the factors that ensure the country’s competitiveness on the basis of interstate rating comparisons, which made it possible to organize the factors according to the degree of influence by the Pareto’s method and to determine priority directions of state development.

Circular economy: barrier and opportunities for SMEs

“…The analysis that will be carried out on the topic of "business models" to create "sustainable development" is to reduce "barriers" which can be seen from the amount of research that has been done. From Figure 2 it is presented that recycling and business models show relatively small numbers compared to sustainable manufacturing and sustainable development [24][25][26][27][28][29][30]. This means that there is a great opportunity to research sustainable development as part of the impact of circular economy [19] through the use of green technology [20], individual and organizational innovation [21], to reduce various barriers in it [22,[31][32][33][34].…”

From Leadership to Agility: What, How and Where We Are Now?

“…Based on the analysis, this study produces findings to enrich the literature on leadership and strategic management. First, organizations must optimize unique organizational resources, cannot be imitated by competitors to build competitiveness (Mady et al, 2022;Shmygol et al, 2020). By optimizing the leadership role as a unique and inimitable resource (Hartnell et al, 2020;Kim & Beehr, 2018) organizations can build a superior organizational culture (Schell, 2019).…”

“…Drawing from resource based view (Barney, 1991) organizations must optimize unique organizational resources, cannot be imitated by competitors to build competitiveness (Mady, Abdul Halim, & Omar, 2022;Shmygol, Galtsova, Solovyov, Koval, & Arsawan, 2020). At the organizational level, leadership is a unique and inimitable resource (Hartnell et al, 2020;Kim & Beehr, 2018) because leadership is the art of building organizations at all levels (Cheung & Wong, 2011;Hendryadi, Suratna, Suryani, & Purwanto, 2019;Zeb, Abdullah, Hussain, & Safi, 2019) which ultimately builds an organizational culture that supports performance and change (Schell, 2019).…”

“…In modern practice, in the organization of work (or services) and cost planning for quality assurance, the largest share in the total costs is the cost of control, whereas the smallest is the cost of preventing defects (inconsistencies) [26][27][28][29][30][31][32]. This does not take into account that the control at a significant cost does not in itself increase the quality, but only allows one to separate the high quality from the low quality.…”
