Is Poland change ready? - report

A KPMG report  "2015 Change Readiness Index" (CRI) places Poland in 32nd place out of 127 countries in the ranking. According to the authors "change readiness indicates the capability of a country – its government, private and public enterprises, people and wider civil society – to anticipate, prepare for, manage and respond to a wide range of change drivers, proactively cultivating resulting opportunities, and mitigating potential negative impacts." In the three pillars of the index, Poland was ranked 43rd for enterprise capability, 23rd for government capability, and 31st for people & civil society capability. Each of the sub-sections comprises manifold sub-indices. Enterprise capability in Poland falls behind that of Panama, Kazakhstan, or Morocco. This pillar takes into account sub-indices such as economic openness, financial sector, and innovation. Rule of law, fiscal management, land rights, and other factors account for government capability. Poland scored particularly well in this pillar, surpassing the United States of America. In terms of people & civil society capability, which concerns among other things human capital, entrepreneurship, and health, Poland reached a score similar to that of other countries in the Eastern European region.
