12 UAE Competitiveness Report Growth and Diversification: Competitivenessenhancing Reforms in the UAE By Alya Al Mulla, and Shaheena Mohamed, Emirates Competitiveness Council (ECC) The United Arab Emirates (UAE) economy exhibits good macroeconomic strength, with expected overall GDP growth of 3.14% in The country s plans for diversification are on track as the non-hydrocarbon economy looks set to continue growing this year, backed by strong trade, tourism, logistics and manufacturing figures. The UAE is also investing in the development of sectors spanning healthcare, financial services, renewable energy, aerospace, nanotechnology, biotechnology, materials science and information technology. The UAE s economic strength is buttressed by its world class road, sea and airport infrastructure, with significant expansion planned for growth in airports and airline routes, enhancing connectivity and boosting the country s tourism industry.

13 Global Quality Intelligence The ASQ Global State of Quality Spotlight Report: Quality in the Middle East and North Africa 13 Available at ASQ.org DQG and ASQ have an MOU and DQG was a sponsor of this research
14 Quality in MENA Spotlight Report: Quality in the Middle East and North Africa Regional variations in quality practices are not as significant as the initial hypothesis outlined. Analysis shows while there are some differences, the vast majority of variation is driven more by other factors such as industry and the size of an organization. The purpose of this spotlight is to continue statistical data analysis to find other quality practices that may be different within the MENA region and then to interview a wide range of organizations and thought leaders within the region to understand the context of why those variations exist. 14

20 Continuous Improvement and Innovation Continuous Improvement A continual improvement process, also often called a continuous improvement process, is an ongoing effort to improve products, services, or processes. These efforts can seek "incremental" improvement over time or "breakthrough" improvement all at once.... Source: Wikipedia Innovation Innovation is the application of better solutions that meet new requirements, articulate needs, or existing market needs. This is accomplished through more effective products, processes, services, technologies, or ideas that are readily available to markets, governments and society. Source: Wikipedia 20 Steve Jobs: I have a great respect for incremental improvement, and I've done that sort of thing in my life, but I've always been attracted to the more revolutionary changes. I don't know why. Because they're harder. They're much more stressful emotionally. And you usually go through a period where everybody tells you that you've completely failed.
