Introduction

Questioning Pakistan’s Economic Growth Potential

25 Rapid Growth Markets

SOURCE: “Growing Beyond: Rapid growth market, Winter Edition - January 2013,” Earnst & Young

Pakistan is NOT among them! Does it mean that Pakistan Can’t be one of them?

Ten years of massive growth in Asian international expansion

SOURCE: “Growth Journeys: Helping Asian companies realize the value of their international expansion strategies,” Accenture

Pakistan is NOT among these too, because she is engaged on war fronts!

Asian companies have invested more than US$2.9 trillion in regional and global expansion in the last 10 year. Even 1% of that investment comes to US$29 billion, instead Pakistan has spent more than US$100 billion on WAT with more than 75% negative return on investment.

All is not well! Rapid Growth Market Forecast 2013

HIGHEST RISK MEDIUM RISK LOWEST RISK

SOURCE: Earnst & Young Rapid-Growth Markets Forecast – October 2013

Turkey, Argentina, India, Egypt, Vietnam, Ghana, Indonesia and South Africa

Poland, Brazil, Czech Republic, Colombia, Chile, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, and Malaysia.

Thailand, Russia, Korea, Nigeria, China, UAE, Saudi Arabia and Qatar

Here also Pakistan is NOT entitled to any color code because it has the potential to perform better than all of them! Yes, she can!

Sharp increase in optimism on the growth prospects

KEY FINDINGS OF THE

BUSINESS OUTLOOK SURVEY

First Quarter 2013

4 Consumer demand

remains on top of the list of external concerns

5 Attracting and

retaining qualified employees continues to

be the top internal concerns

6 Renewing focus on

sales and marketing is now the top strategic

focus overtaking expansion to new

markets

1 Strengthened

confidence in company performance

2 Sanguinity about

some company-level risks

3 Willingness to invest

more on sales, marketing and R&D

SOURCE: CFO innovation Asia, Business Outlook Survey, First Quarter 2013

Can Pakistan’s Corporate Leaders also endorse this optimism as theirs too? Yes, they can ONLY if they keep the country in mind instead of petty personal interests and build national corporate assets instead of family business empires.

Heightened optimism in country of operation and at company levels across Asia

Optimism at country of operation level Optimism at company level

SOURCE: CFO innovation Asia, Business Outlook Survey, First Quarter 2013

Do Pakistan’s people, their government and corporate leaders have any reason to be optimist? They don’t. But they have every reason to be optimist?

Pakistan’s Real Economic Growth Potential

More than one reason to be optimist…

What this slide reflects are Pakistan’s geographic advantage, demographic strength, highest regional GDP in Asia, and military restraint. Why the question mark after the photographs of the top leaders? You can very well guess the answer because that is the title of this presentation. So, what did Pakistan miss on the global front and why?

Global Perspective

Share of CP Market Growth by Region

Timeline of Takeover by China and India as Global Economic Leaders

Code of Professional Proficiency and Ten Future Work Skills

Six Drivers of Change

Seven Key Corporate Challenges and Actions

Global State of Talent Projected to 2030

The Value Chain of Talent

Importance of Equitable Access and Good-Quality Education to Private Sector

A Major Concern: Employability

The Much Ignored Irony of the System of Education

Analyzing Potential Returns to the Private Sector from Investment in Education

Share of world CP market growth, 2012 to 2017, by region

“Between 2012 and 2017, the share of world CP market growth coming from emerging Asia will rise from 29% to 38%.” Pakistan has the potential to contribute more than any other country in the region by drawing natural and human resource maps and seriously

working on them to make them appear on the world economic map.

SOURCE: EY analysis from Euromonitor data, June 2013., Brand New Order – “Profit or lose Balancing the growth-profit paradox for global consumer products companies and retailers in Asia’s emerging markets,” Earnst & Young, 2013

Timeline of takeover by China and India as global economic leaders

China is moving ahead cautiously, India’s claim to third position in global economic leadership is doubted, though not impossible yet, and Pakistan is striving for an “externally borrowed” breathing space. Will Pakistan be able to even join the race? Yes, Pakistan can by relying

on its own natural and human resources governed and managed by responsible political and corporate leaders.

Six Drivers of Change

1: Extreme Longevity

Increasing global life-spans change the nature of careers and learning

2: Rise of smart machines and systems

Workplace automation nudges human workers out of rote, repetitive tasks

3: Computational world

Massive increases in the sensors and processing power make the world a programmable system

4: New Media Ecology

New communication tools require new media literacies beyond text

5: Super-structured organizations Social technologies drive new forms of production and value creation

6: Globally connected world

Increased global interconnectivity puts diversity and adaptability at the center of organizational

structures

SOURCE: Future Work Skills 2020, Institute for the Future for the University of Phoenix Research Institute 2011

70% young Pakistanis have to grow up; familiarize with smart machines and systems; connect with computational world; try to know the architects and understand the reach and impact of new media ecology, found or become part of super-structured organizations and

prepare to become active citizens of globally connected world.

Code of professional proficiency in future

Proficiency depends on observation, probe, understanding, experimenting, concluding, testing, succeeding, packaging, communicating, networking and collaborating.

SOURCE: Future Work Skills 2020, Institute for the Future for the University of Phoenix Research Institute 2011

Key Corporate Challenges and Actions

Decision-making processes and authority are over-concentrated in global headquarters

Overseas offices' lack of respect for the leadership authority of headquarters

Lack of clear structure in top leadership roles and processes

Leadership across functions and geographies lacking alignment on the common goals of the global organization

Governance structures are not clearly understood by staff outside of the home country

Lack of ability to hold overseas offices accountable for not complying with processes and procedures

Weak cross-border collaboration

KEY CHALLENGES Mentoring and coaching programs

focused on global leadership

Personality and leadership assessment for global leadership

Cultural sensitivity training

Regular global videoconferencing or other advanced communications

connecting talent across the global company into teams or workshops

360-degree feedback for global leadership team members

Offering international assignments and global rotation programs

ACTIONS

SOURCE: “Growth Journeys: Helping Asian companies realize the value of their international expansion strategies,” Accenture

Pakistanis are capable of accepting the challenges and always found ready to come into action whenever they were assigned the task to do so in the interest of their country. But, instead of country benefitting from their actions the rewards ended up in foreign bank accounts of corrupt political leaders, criminal corporate mafias, bureaucrats and army generals. PEOPLE WANT CHANGE! TO BEGIN WITH FOCUS ON COUNTRY’S HIGHLY TALENTED YOUTH…

The present global state of talent with the right skills, Projected to 2030

SOURCE: Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, Education at a Glance (Paris: Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, 2006), 155./ “Investment in Global Education: A strategic Imperative for Business,” Center for Global Education at Brookings, September 2013

The greater availability and demand of talent in Pakistan underlines the need for the development of Pakistan’s Human Resource Development Maps for educating and preparing them for national and global competencies.

The Value Chain of Talent

SOURCE: “Investment in Global Education: A strategic Imperative for Business,” Center for Global Education at Brookings, September 2013

The Value Chain of Talent demands planning for a citizen’s “Seven Stages of Life” from early childhood to either entrepreneurship or employment and a post-retirement concern-free life.

The Importance of Equitable Access and Good-Quality Education to the Private Sector

PROBLEM: “Despite increasing demand for talent and rising pool of available workers, ‘employability’ will appear as a major concern.” SOLUTION: “Enhance size and quality of talent pool Reduce talent acquisition and retention cost Reduce learning and development costs.”

SOURCE: “Investment in Global Education: A strategic Imperative for Business,” Center for Global Education at Brookings, September 2013

The ignored irony of the system of education

MONTHLY HHOUSEHOLD BUDGET ALLOCATIONS ON EDUCATION “I CANNOTAFFORD EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES WHERE I LIVE.”

SOURCE: Nielsen Global Survey of Consumer Demand, Q1 2013 SOURCE: Nielsen Global Survey of Consumer Demand, Q1 2013

The present system of education across the globe is evidently producing classes of different levels of employees who rarely move from lower managerial level to higher managerial level and this will be noticed not in the distant but the near future. The most aspect of this ironic situation is the need for understanding the seriousness of the psychological and social dimensions of this issue before it’s too late.

Analyzing Potential Returns to the Private Sector from Investment in Education

Note: This approach employs the “full discounting method” referred to by as opposed to the Mincerian earnings function commonly used by labor economists. “The Profitability Of Investment In Education: Concepts and Methods.”

SOURCE: “Investment in Global Education: A strategic Imperative for Business,” Center for Global Education at Brookings, September 2013

Does this yardstick to measure “profitability of investment in education: concepts and methods,” have a module to evaluate the return on investment to Pakistan or to that matter any other country?

Contextual Aspects of Governance, Capacity Level and Evaluation

Four Cycles of Preparedness

Process Custodianship and Governance in Different Context

Three Levels of Capacity

Framework for institutional performance evaluations

SOURCE: Universalia 1985; IDRC 1991; Influencing Change: Building Evaluation Capacity to Strengthen Governance, The World Bank 2011.

Do our systems of governance and education meet any of the criteria such as motivation, environment, capacity and performance?

Process Custodianship and Governance in Different Contexts

Does the government of Pakistan have an Integrated “Contextual National Agenda,” and a “Set of Natural and Human Resource Maps?”

SOURCE: Mohammad A. Jaljouli, “Evaluation Systems as Strategy Management Tools: Building Dubai’s Institutional Learning Capacity,” - “Influencing Change: Building Evaluation Capacity to Strengthen Governance,” The World Bank 2011.

The Three Levels of Capacity

SOURCE: Caroline Heider, A Conceptual Framework for Developing Evaluation Capacities: Building on Good Practice, “Influencing Change: Building Evaluation Capacity to Strengthen Governance,” The World Bank 2011.

Does the existing system of overall national, provincial and district level political and corporate governance reflect any one of the three levels of capacity except the capacity of individuals to the extent of their personal interest and benefit?

Social territory on the national activity map…

Social territory is a nucleus around which the other four territories on the national activity map revolve. A family, therefore, is a focal point with reference to social and civil rights and responsibilities. In order to understand its role in national politics national planning needs to focus on an individuals seven stages of life. Each transition of an individual’s life from one stage to the other till his death reflects a change in his role, his rights and his responsibilities as member of his family, society and the state.

Politics has become subservient to an “adjustable” party agenda on “day-to-day basis” instead of “manifesto focused” governance to represent the voters in democratic as well as non-democratic political systems across the globe. It appears that heads of different pillars of the state in Pakistan have decided neither to play nor let the others play. Interestingly, all the parties neither playing nor letting others play have nothing personal at stake. Their future is secured socially, politically and economically. They are not bothered about the future of the country or its more than 180 million unfortunate people.

Pakistan is one of the top listed emerging market’s economies with higher Regional GDP than the most preferred emerging economies in different continents of the world ( http://www.slideshare.net/19540201/potential-of-investment-in-pakistan-12752206 ). Why Pakistan has failed to take any small or significant advantage of its globally acknowledged pro-investment inflow position on Global Investment Flows Map of the World? The answer is carefully engineered disconfiguration of Pakistan’s elements of national power with the connivance of the pawns of enemies of Pakistan placed at different management levels in almost every pillar of the state. These allegedly known and unknown pawns in every pillar of the state have perpetuated a state of permanent uncertainty in such a way that nothing in any area of economy can be planned and implemented with foreseeable, dependable or predictable timeline. http://www.slideshare.net/19540201/pakistans-independence-day-message-to-government-and-people-of-pakistan

In today’s globally and economically interconnected world diplomacy is an art that keeps a country on the safe side economically and militarily in a highly unpredictable world of today. Diplomatic activity, therefore, is the most sensitive of all other activities on the National Activity Map. Diplomacy is not a day-to-day affair. It is considered as the backbone of a country’s National Strategic Vision and Goals. Governments come and go but the National Strategic Vision and Goals do not change with the changes in and around a country. A country’s vigilant leaders always remain fully cognizant of developments in and around borders of their countries. It would not be surprising at all if a student of international affairs described the diplomatic consequences of a war other than military and military actions across the Muslim world in one sentence: “The end of the political Muslim world will be prevented only by an unthinkable, unimaginable and unbelievable miracle.” http://www.slideshare.net/19540201/america-the-great-game-and-the-greater-middle-east-an-undiscussed-perspective-unveiling-the-birth-of-conspiracy-theories

9/11 is a turning point in the history of diplomacy and military in a sense that the unilateral and multilateral application of the theory of preemptive strike and the concept of military operation other than war in war theaters in almost all continents of the world have exposed the political and military leaders to new challenges. The political leaders have to justify the social, economic and diplomatic consequences of involvement in externally advised or internally planned military action within and outside a country. Similarly, military leaders have to seek parliamentary cover prior to involvement in war against terror in and around a country. Consequently, not only the political and military leaders are under tremendous pressures to justify their actions and the impact of those actions on five territories of National Activity Map. http://www.slideshare.net/19540201/malala-mishap-and-global-media-scenario-in-retrospect-taliban-and-pakistan and http://www.slideshare.net/19540201/the-weaknesses-of-the-muslims

National Action Plan from Civil Society’s Perspective

Social Territory: Action

Political Territory: Action

Economic Territory: Action

Diplomatic Territory: Action

Military Territory: Action

Highlights of the National Action Plan from civil society’s perspective

SOCIAL ACTIVITY: ACTION

In order to make its voice heard, the civil society needs to get organized, create public pressure groups, personal security and social response platforms and pick up their politically uninfluenced and unbiased civil society leaders.

Civil society needs to come up with its own selection process and create platforms for the nomination of candidates for national and provincial assemblies and the senate. The right of selecting a candidate must be taken back from the political party leaders. Civil Society has to develop a mechanism for the investigation of public complaints against the office holders of the four pillars of the state and take the culprits to courts and judicial council no matter how highly placed and important they are and see that the justice is done. Presently ongoing superior court proceedings in NRO and other cases have established beyond any doubt that the constitution of Pakistan is seriously flawed and evidently provides shameful cover to criminals once they are elected. These flaws need to be pointed out by the civil society for immediate review and appropriate correction.

POLITICAL ACTIVITY: ACTION

ECONOMIC ACTIVITY: ACTION

The government of Pakistan does not have a National Economic Vision, Natural and Human Resource Potential and Performance Map and rationalized Public Administration Expenditure Manuel. The bureaucracy does not have a “Public Service Code of Conduct” that binds it to remain open and available to ideas and projects of national importance. Presidential immunity is used by section officers and federal secretaries for hiding incompetence, negligence, indifference and corruption at every level of state management operation. Civil Society has to create platforms for addressing the highlighted state management loopholes.

Highlights of the National Action Plan from civil society’s perspective

DIPLOMATIC ACTIVITY: ACTION

Pakistan’s ideal geographical location makes it one of the most fortunate countries in the world but the situation in and around Pakistan has made it the most unfortunate and rightly or wrongly the most ridiculed piece of land. How to reverse this situation to Pakistan’s advantage. The key for that is the proper evaluation of Pakistan’s tangible and intangible elements of national power and their reconfiguration for proper positioning and utilization of country’s ideal geographical location, its rich natural and human resources, its incomparably unique economic and investment potential, its one of the finest armed forces in the world.

MILITARY ACTIVITY: ACTION

It will not be inappropriate and out of place to blame Pakistan’s military commanders for the overall mess Pakistan is in. So far Pakistan’s military commanders have repeatedly jumped in to put the country’s democracy back on track but always gifted Pakistanis a much bigger mess before they left. Now instead of trying another way out in an old manner it will be advisable to use the civil society giving them military cover in getting their right to self-govern back to them in its true sense. How that can be done? That can be done only by mobilizing “Influence Groups” in every walk of life through “Specific Self-Governance Tasks” within a given timeline.

The Way Out…

When those who are given the mandate to govern make the country ungovernable then the only way out for the civil society is to lead the way to show the leaders that those who are mislead can lead too when the time comes. It is far more important to self-govern than handing over the right to govern to those who cannot see beyond their nose.
