The Influence of Leadership on Organization’s Level of Competitiveness

While it is true that competitiveness is a performance result and such an approach should be taken into account, we should also think about competitiveness in dynamics, which means present competitiveness is also a cause, a driver of future performance. Competitiveness is both a result and a cause and therefore it is a controversial issue that requires continuous investigations to consider the permanent dynamics of the involved variables. This paper aims to present a possible model for analyzing organizations’ competitiveness in dynamics, by highlighting the important role of leadership as an independent variable that influences the future level of competitiveness.
