In The Coming Jobs War book, Clifton (2009), discusses what leaders would be confronted in the future. He suggests that before a revolution, there will be a global competition. Additionally, if countries fail to create good jobs, their societies will fall apart and they will experience all sorts of chaos, such as people experiencing suffering and instability (Clifton, 2011). Clifton goes on to say that world leaders will experience chaos, not only because the lack of peace, the lack of global wellbeing, or the lack of extraordinary advancements in human development, but because of the lack of good jobs (Clifton, 2011). He offers that an “increasing number of people in the world are miserable, hopeless, suffering and becoming dangerously

Political or Military Force (Clifton, 2011). Conversely, Clifton also declares that leadership demands have changed, even the highest level of leadership requires proficiency of a new task – creating new jobs. He goes on to say that traditional leadership, through various leadership abilities such as, politics, military force or religion will not be enough for future leadership (Clifton, 2011). The thought is that personal values will be attached to how they affect jobs instead of values such as human rights or women in the global workplace. However, these issues will matter in how they affect job growth more than they affect family, political and religious values (Clifton, 2011). Clifton compared the global war on jobs to WWII. He declares “the global war on jobs determines the leader of the free world” (Clifton, 2011, p. 4-5). Conversely, after WWII, the educational arena changed. For example, The G.I. Bill was introduced to help the soldiers get an education and receive degrees (Kezar, …show more content…
Clifton insists leaders would make less mistakes, and gain opportunities if they knew what the world was thinking. Moreover, leaders would misjudge the hearts and minds of their constituencies less and would be a more effective leader if they knew what the people was thinking (Clifton, 2011). Thus, The Gallup World Poll was created in 2005 to assist in the area. Although very difficult and monumental challenges occurred, scientists conducted stakeholder’s interviews. This included world leaders and academic leaders (Clifton, 2011). Since the scientist could not find a massively comprehensive poll of the world, Clifton and his team committed to make a comprehensive poll (Clifton, 2011). Further, the scientist needed to create reliable and standards that were consistent so that leaders could follow the trend and patterns (Clifton, 2011). In addition, benchmarks included: “wellbeing, war and peace, law and order, hopes and dreams, health and healthcare, suffering and thriving, personal economics, poverty, environmental issues, workplaces and so on” (Clifton, 2011, p. 9). The data collected offered answers to questions that were never answered prior to this poll. Thus, although the World Gallup Poll has only been collecting data for six years (at that time), it was found that what the world wants is a good job (Clifton, 2011). Additionally, Clifton suggests that he and the team
