How Can Micro-Power Nations Compete with Super-Power Nations?

Feature Article How Can Micro-Power Nations Compete with Super-Power Nations?
THU, 13 FEB 2025

How can micro-power nations compete with super-power nations? Most micro-power-nations are already rich but in the wrong hands and, hence, poor. Most nations already have extraordinarily talented citizens and sufficient entrepreneurial mindsets to make the country great, but they are under unskilled bureaucracies and, therefore, struggling with dysfunctional economies.

Like it or not, the Trump administration and its chainsaw teams are streaming live 24-hour daily progress on how incompetent, corrupt, fraudulent, and unskilled their top bureaucracies and management have been performing for decades. What lessons is it offering to the world's free economies, and what options is it leaving for them to deploy?

MUSK + DOGE of the USA is providing a blueprint for managing superior performance out of fermented bureaucracies; this might become a new chapter in human history on how to save nations from incompetency and abuse of power.

Why did the world miss the opportunity? Why was there never a national declaration to fix these bureaucratic issues during the last hundred years, similar to what Trump's team currently does? Economies around the world are struggling primarily with self-created problems with no solutions in sight. It is now time for each nation to get a chainsaw team of super experts.

Making a country great requires a clear national mandate.

Achieving exceptional mastery to lead national value creation and productivity, performance, and profitability in creating a highly skilled citizenry requires a national mobilization mandate.

Optimizing all nationally available resources and acquiring specialized skills is essential.

Suppose only 1% of your national citizenry can achieve such goals and become the driving force on national performance and can play on the global stage. In that case, the remaining 99% will enjoy cascading residuals and benefits, plus the extraordinary potential to follow similar paths and create productivity. Such mobilizations will quadruple grassroots prosperity. It is the absence of common sense that has failed economies.

Super-power nations are always hungry for high-value goods and services. Hence, competing on price to produce cheaper products against China or India will only destroy your national economy. Everything on such thinking is outside traditional education and economic theorems; this new global age demands global age skills and study deeply.

Global Rules of Engagements
Competency Scores: As the world advances, competency becomes highly critical. As degrees on the wall faint in color, power, and utility values, the rise of technology forces daily, year-round intense education to stay in the race. As productivity demands are splintered into highly refined splices, performance must match astonishing results to avoid failures.

We have to rent a time machine; it is essential. Just sliding back a few decades and flying over the downtowns of the world only raises a few questions: Who needed a phone with a 100-yard cable attached? Who needed a cubicle to be chained, and who needed an office anyway? Slide forward just a few decades, and some questions will emerge.

Why are so many young yet so advanced and hyper-talented youths running the world's largest and most complex enterprises on digital highways? Who needs corner offices, and who needs bureaucracies anyway? When is the world so interconnected globally with so much interdependence?

Such trips in a time machine will teach us how fast the world is spinning and how deep asleep our governments are. Let's ring the alarm.

Micro-power nations must acquire special skills to discover hidden talents among their citizens. This has been the downfall of both big and small nations. Decades have passed, but skills are still the prime issue in most countries.

Understanding the landscapes:
Why is building the nation first and building the country second?

Tariff wars, audits, and fraud recovery are great efforts to fix bureaucracies, but they still cannot lift a nation's productivity, performance, and profitability. The lost decades will remain lost despite a 100% turnaround in building the national citizenry to stand up to the global age of competitiveness. Still, it takes one or two solid decades if the goal is the creation of a world-class citizenry.

A nation is only formed when enough people unite through common ideology, culture, religion, and a shared struggle. They fight, sacrifice, and establish rules, laws, and borders. They work together to build a stronger nation.

Stronger nations have a stronger populace with a common message; stronger nations have stronger borders as countries. Countries without borders are like only real estate projects; without culture and shared goals, they are only like carnivals; without ideologies, they are only like broken tribes in a Caravan.

One doesn't need mountains of gold and diamonds to build a great country. Check out dozens of countries with large gold and diamond mines and unlimited resources. Needed are national citizens who are already the hidden gold and diamond assets, upon standing up with the right skills to global competitive agendas. The collective wealth created by the productivity of the citizenry supports the country, as its economic power ultimately determines a country's prosperity.

Economic development is not a walk in the park; it is instead a war on economic incompetency, a new struggle to drop old traditional mapping and charting with timely dynamic national mobilization of entrepreneurialism.

A brief study of 100-plus free economies and their continued entrapment speaks volumes about their economic philosophies. The World Bank has prepared good and timely reports on this global topic of interest.

The Bitter Medicine Pill: Economic development without entrepreneurialism is only economic destruction. Political power without economic power is no power. Increasing the debt ceiling is a grand economic failure. Abandoning a national citizenry unable to stand up to global age competitiveness is a political failure. The inability to identify, categorize, and digitize high-potential SMEs is an economic development failure.

Trump is changing the face of America. If only 10% are successful, Americans will resculpt Mount Rushmore, and a shockwave will reverberate across 100 free economies, challenging their current competency levels and speed of required executions.

Despite the USA's example going global via live streaming in real-time, most nations do not have the right skills for their overly obese and dysfunctional bureaucracies, like dry-cleaning, spinning, and scrubbing an oversized century-old carpet laid on the floor for decades in the main halls.

The Micro-Clusters of specialized skills within Mico-Power nations are critically needed now to harness superior productivity and performance. They would do all the work at 1000% speed and accuracy at 10% of the cost, while the remaining 90% would be transformed into other positive activities. Making America Great Again is for the world to observe, learn, adapt, and follow. University education cannot deliver such skills, nor do they have entrepreneurial strengths.

First, Make Yourself Great:
Making your country great will automatically follow.

A quick study of 100 free economies speaks volumes, despite big-budget propaganda on socialist China and ignoring how they built the world's most highly skilled and experienced workforce, larger than all Western economies combined.

Preparation of a Brief: How to Play Super-power Nation's Games

GROK of X is the world's most innovative AI-centric search engine. Ask the following four questions to receive a detailed, formatted four-page Brief showing a balanced understanding of the subject to attract a boardroom meeting.

ONE: How and why national citizenry needs Entrepreneurial Mysticism: How It Drives Grassroots Prosperity, why Expothon created a global debate on such new economic thinking

TWO: Why is the Mindset Hypothesis so essential in any prime economic development in any country to balance both the job-seeker and job-creator mindsets, and why Expothon created this new economic thinking

Three: Why calling a new enterprise small is the greatest error of economic development for not understanding how they become global giants, why Expothon leading a new narrative on creating the right mindsets and skills to build SME sectors

Four: Why is the 'national mobilization of entrepreneurialism' a proven trajectory for building SME sectors and creating upskilled and reskilled high-potential nation citizenry? Where does the credit lie in such new thinking?

Celebrate the Brief: If you have prepared the brief, your team is possibly the most skilled in the nation at articulating the programs critical to making your nation great. Your political and economic leadership should be the first ones to hear this progress. Take a lead and start mobilizing SME growth.

The global age of competitiveness is too fast, and only the highly skilled can stay in the race. Traditional education is left too far behind, as only the right skills dominate. This is whyExpothon is so adamant about this. More… SME strategies 2025: tactical landscapes across 100 free economies

Global shifts in skills can create micro-power nations, and when their talents, technology, and local resources are combined, they are already large enough not to be ignored. There will be open wars of competency, and the USA is leading the charge.

This decade is more about human intelligence riding on artificial intelligence than the other way around.

CHINDUSA: China, India, and the USA are the top three super-power nations, where, if any, two, when combined, will easily crush the third one. All three have only one option: 'build the nation.'

The game of competency is open to every nation. The wars on meritocracy will decide who climbs higher. The new wars are based on the wide-open acknowledgment of managing the 1000 good universities, 1000 institutions with credibility, and billion-plus super skilled workers, billion entrepreneurs to uplift new SMEs, and therefore billions living in harmony with diversity and creating grassroots prosperity.
