Economic Development depends on Competitiveness
What is Competitiveness?
A country or state is competitive to the extent that firms operating there are able
to compete successfully in the regional and global economy while supporting
high and rising wages and living standards for the average citizen
• Competitiveness depends on the long-run productivity of a location as a
place to do business
- Productivity of existing firms and workers
- Ability to achieve high participation of working age citizens in the
workforce
• Competitiveness is not:
- Low wages
- A weak currency
- Jobs per se

What Determines Competitiveness?
Endowments
•
Endowments, including natural resources, geographical location, population, and country size, create
a foundation for prosperity, but true prosperity arises from productivity in the use of endowments

sophistication of local competition revealed at the level of firms, clusters, and regions

Economic Development and Social Progress
• Economic progress has a positive impact on social progress, but
rising GDP per Capita does not guarantee social progress
• We must measure social progress directly in order to understand
performance and inform improvement
• The Social Progress Index is a new tool to do so
− Holistic framework
− Outcomes (not inputs)
− Separate from economic
• By separating social and economic progress, we can better
understand performance and how social and economic
performance are linked

What is Social Progress?
Social progress is the capacity of a society to meet the basic
human needs of its citizens, establish the building blocks
that allow citizens and communities to enhance and sustain
the quality of their lives, and create the conditions for all
individuals to reach their full potential.

Shared Value in the Value Chain
Fibria, Brazil
• Fibria, a large manufacturer of pulp for paper, utilizes planted eucalyptus
trees rather than native and old growth forests
• The company also encourages small-scale producers near its mills to plant
eucalyptus in conjunction with other crops, assisting them with technical
training and inputs
• Fibria achieves far greater resource efficiency versus old growth forest
production, with eucalyptus yielding 30 times higher yield per acre of wood
pulp
• Small scale producers contribute 27% of the raw material volume utilized in
Fibria mills, improving efficiency
• 4000 households have significantly increased their income

satisfaction, leading to similar increases in the sales of Arca’s products
• Arca Continental recovers its investment in 6 months or less
• Beginning in Mexico, the program is being extended to Argentina and Ecuador

• Businesses acting as businesses, not as charitable givers, are arguably the most
powerful force for addressing many of the pressing issues facing our society
• Shared value gives rise to far broader opportunities for economic success than
conventional management thinking
• Shared value thinking will drive the next wave of innovation, productivity, and
economic growth
• A transformation of business practice around shared value gives purpose to the
corporation
