The Council on Competitiveness
Description edit
In 1986 the United States was facing one of its most dire economic challenges since the end of World War II: the country slid from being the world's largest creditor to its largest debtor; its position as a global leader in technology and innovation was declining; and American industries were losing market share to international competitors. To meet this mounting challenge, two-dozen industrial, university, and labor leaders joined together to found the Council on Competitiveness, a forum for elevating national competitiveness to the forefront of national consciousness.
After nearly two decades, the Council continues to be guided by this mission: to set an action agenda that drives economic growth and raises the standard of living for all Americans. The only national organization whose membership is comprised exclusively of CEOs, university presidents and labor leaders, the Council's viewpoint and findings are cited widely in debate and discussion at the national, regional and local levels.
Enriched by this unique convergence of talent, perspective and influence, the Council is strategically poised to shape economic agendas-on regional, national, and world stages-that anticipate and respond to the demands of a competitive environment for global trade and commerce.
