Sustaining Vietnam's growth: The productivity challenge
McKinsey Global Institute, Marco Breu, Richard Dobbs, Jaana Remes, David Skilling & Jinwook Kim · 2012
78/100
👍 Worth It
Another solid McKinsey Global Institute report, this one laying out exactly how much Vietnam needed to boost labor productivity to hit its growth targets, right down to hard numbers on state-owned enterprise inefficiency. It's policy-report dense, not light reading, but the data is credible and well-sourced.
