  • Business Leadership in the Arab World
    Business Leadership in the Arab World Change is a constant in the Arab world, and the business leaders who consistently thrive there are individuals of remarkable agility and mettle. In this timely report from The Korn/Ferry Institute, the chairmen and CEOs of preeminent corporations discuss the region’s economy, business dynamics, and unique leadership demands. They discuss forthrightly the challenges they face, including a still-developing civil society, hurdles to entrepreneurship, political instability, and education gaps. From their observations and experiences emerge powerful insights for business leaders from the East and West, and those hoping to build bridges between them. i THE Korn/Ferry INSTITUTE Business Leadership in the Arab World Contents Page Foreword. v Introduction. vii Economies. 1 Business leadership . 9 Changes . 17 Responses. 23 Conclusions. 27 Leadership profiles. 32 BUSINESS LEADERSHIP IN THE ARAB WORLD v Foreword The protests and riots in the spring of 2011 on the streets of Tunis, Cairo, Benghazi, and Manama did not arise overnight from disapproval of spe- cific government measures ..They arose from a groundswell of change taking place across the Arab world, a world where the desires of a pre- dominantly youthful population increasingly have come into conflict with the attitudes of their elderly, long-serving rulers .. With their mobile phones and Internet access, young Arabs today want to be part of the global community in a way that their parents never did .. Theirs is a way of thinking that is increasingly reflected in the region’s business community, where enterprising firms are blazing a new trail .. They are pushing forward the bounds of openness, seeking further inte- gration with the global business community, and adopting Western standards of governance .
