THE IMPORTANCE OF LEADERSHIP FOR ENTERPRISE COMPETITIVENESS IMPROVEMENT

Abstract

The position of Serbian economy in relation to
developed economies in the world is still not on the satisfactory
level. Yearly competitiveness report clearly indicates that
Serbia, without clear and radical changes, will not be able to
successfully compete with the competition from wider and
immediate surroundings. The aim of this paper is to show and
explain how Serbia, in order to improve its position in relation
to other countries, needs leaders who are able to manage
radical changes, leaders who can define the direction and
course of the reforms, at the same time instilling trust, inspiring
and motivating people for them. Both enterprises and all kinds
of organizations will have to adapt and change quickly or they
will not be able to survive in the ever-changing environment, as
it is today and as it will be in the future.
