Summary: Global Paradox - John Naisbitt

This work offers a summary of the book “GLOBAL PARADOX: The Bigger The World
Economy, The More Powerful Its Smallest Players” by John Naisbitt.What is the
“global paradox”? As the world economy expands, the smallest elements (right
down to the individual) will become ever more important and significant. The
global paradox is a framework for developing an insight into the world as it
is today and how it is moving towards tomorrow. In this brilliant book, John
Naisbitt analyzes the consequences of this paradox: 1. New political and
business standards are evolving which are based on the expectations of tribal
or local practices 2. Tourism is responsible for driving the biggest industry
in the world 3. The economic viability of any country is directly related to
the extent to which leaders provide an opportunity for the small parts to
contribute to the whole 4. The facilitation of entrepreneurship is the key
requirement of leadership (both business and political) in the future 5. With
the present state of the world, there are now more opportunities than at any
other time in history. In Global Paradox, John Naisbitt offers fresh theories
on the development of a global economy, its contradictions and its
implications. An inspiring work.
