Business
Leadership in the New Economy:
|
Southern
California at a Crossroad
|
This research project was a collaborative partnership between the
La Jolla Institute, Pepperdine University's Institute
for Public Policy, and the Center for the Continuing
Study of the California Economy. In addition to this report,
other project elements included: CEO interviews, a business survey,
focus groups, a www discussion forum, and an analysis of the Southern
California economy.
This report seeks to answer the fundamental question of the proper
role of future business leadership in Southern California. In the
past, private sector leaders have been critical shapers of America's
great metropolitan regions. But today, and nowhere more than in the
five-county area, the nature of that leadership is changing. The region,
like most of the country, is undergoing a profound transition from
a domestic and industrial age focus to one more clearly tied to the
global information economy. In line with these new realities, this
report suggests new models and mechanisms for reviving business leadership
in Southern California.
