| Abstract: | Previous studies on competitiveness have examined either broad macroeconomic factors such as financial/economic systems, infrastructure, exports and imports, and cultural/social values, or common macroeconomic factors such as cost or product differentiation position, economies or scale/scope, and employee education and motivation as determinants of competitiveness. However, there is very little conceptual or theoretical literature, explicitly dealing with the influence of managers personal objectives such as power, status, perquisite seeking and risk reduction on corporate strategy and hence on firm competitiveness. |
