The end of the European holiday: Questioning the competitiveness of the EU agenda in the global marketplace

Abstract

Design

This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context.

Purpose

This paper aims to review the latest management developments across the globe and pinpoint practical implications from cutting-edge research and case studies.

Findings

The EU dream is not working, and despite EU bureaucrats claiming it can be saved, now is the time for the EU to reimagine itself and choose success and innovation over restricted growth and consolidated decision-making. Why can’t nations specialize and compete economically whilst also being part of the EU project?

Originality

The briefing saves busy executives, strategists and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.
