Inner cities continue to hemorrhage jobs
By Stephen Ohlemacher
Many of America's inner cities continue to hemorrhage jobs
despite years of federal programs designed to improve their
economies.
Nearly half of the country's 82 largest municipalities lost jobs
from 1995 to 2003, according to a new study by the Initiative
for a Competitive Inner City. By comparison, only one of the
surrounding metropolitan areas lost jobs during the same period. |

Competitiveness message as timely
as ever
By David Johnson
Mr Porter is no stranger to Thailand or its economy. Early in
the first term of Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra he was
invited to assist the government in formulating long-term
competitive strategic positioning for the country.
In his day-long presentation today, specially adapted to the
Thai market, Mr Porter will demonstrate how to overhaul
conventional business thinking and explain why existing rules
that govern competition need to be updated and replaced by
useful management tools.
Using sophisticated statistical research and analytical
techniques, he clarifies the need for leaders to consistently
evaluate their company's competitive position, explaining how to
implement the necessary steps to stay ahead of the competition
and ensure critical, long-term success. |

Daring to dream again
Once a beacon for blacks, Milwaukee seeks to shine once more
By John Schmid
"I do believe that Milwaukee represents the leading
example of the issues of urban core communities and the plight
of African-Americans who were ill-equipped by a whole variety of
reasons for this new kind of competition," said Harvard
University professor Michael E. Porter. He founded the
Initiative for a Competitive Inner City, a Boston based
organization that strategizes on ways to bring jobs to cities
that have lost them. "Milwaukee is an interesting litmus test,
and it has broader significance." |

France Bets All on Picking Winners - Rules for Winning the
Pole Position
by Peggy Hollinger
When Dominique de Villepin took the podium for his first big
speech as France's new prime minister earlier this month, the
charismatic poet-turned-politician set out his plan to fight the
country's crippling unemployment problem. At the heart of his
strategy was reviving France's ability to innovate - the key to
enhancing competitiveness and economic growth.
"We have to find a way to better exploit the considerable
potential of our country, of our universities, our industrial
base and our research labs," he told the deputies gathered in
the ornate surroundings of the National Assembly.
Christian Ketels warns that
simply identifying competitive clusters is not enough. "Clusters
are no substitute for fixing your labour market or social
policies. The key question is whether France is trying to
adopt something new without any changes to the underlying
philosophy of French industrial policy. Is it really a move in a
new direction?" |

Firms must be less defensive and think more systematically about
corporate responsibility: Porter
We are in a dangerous period where many
companies are "wallowing and wandering" as to how to
frame the issue of corporate
citizenship, Michael E. Porter, Bishop William Lawrence
University Professor, Harvard Business
School, told participants today at the annual
Business & Society Conference held by the University of
Toronto's Rotman School of Management.
"Too many firms are in reactive mode, doing what they can
to avoid a public relations disaster.
They need to start seeing corporate responsibility
as something positive - for both their firm and for
society - and develop a more rigorous,
proactive agenda," he said. |

Clusters key to new economy
By Rudolph Bell
Michael Porter is working with South Carolina business and
academic groups in an effort to change the state's economy and
raise the per capita income of its workers.
The state has had success attracting industry in the past,
Porter said, by promoting the low wages of its workers and low
taxes. He said the time for that strategy has passed.
Manufacturers interested in those selling points will move jobs
to China. |

Location, Location, Location
Despite improvements in technology and

important, says Christian Ketels. But the best location for a
company is uniquely dependent on its own strategy. |
