In today’s World, any Company producing goods or services must compete in an increasingly globalized and competitive international market.
To do that, every Company tends to exploit their resources and expertise in an optimal way: by placing the right people in the area of their greatest competence and by allocating the necessary resources in relation to needs.
Only in this way a Company will be able to compete in the international market and face the daily challenges which are submitted by it.
The same goes for a State that must compete in the global market.
In this regard, what makes us think about it is the reason why a State does not sometimes act like any other Company.
We notice in these cases that resources and expertise are managed in a non-optimal way in the State machine: by placing people without any affinity with respect to the role given to them and by allocating resources without a real criterion of necessity.
Thus in these cases a question arises: why?
Why manage resources in a non-optimal way? Why place a person without the necessary skills in strategic roles where these skills are instead required? Why allocate resources without following a criterion of necessity?
Unfortunately, the answers to these questions are not easy to find as these choices can be the result of error, nepotism, collusion, corruption, fraud or more often they can be the result of targeted political choices.
Whatever the answers are, in these cases we can see a total disconnect between the State and the people, which can generate serious problems and lead to the collapse of the sector or the area concerned.
Therefore, as it gets done in any other Company, corrective solutions should be immediately implemented when such a problem occurs: by replacing unsuitable people and by allocating the necessary resources.
Unfortunately, this solution is not always contemplated by the State!
