Israel Business Management

There has been much surprise over President Obama's involvement in Israel and the cities in Judea and Samaria. The reason people are surprised is the President has stated that he wants to allow countries to solve their problems themselves and to govern themselves without US interference.

So, why Israel? Though I have tried to keep this blog apolitical, I would like to take a look at this from a business perspective.

After all, President Obama is the CEO of the USA and should be planning the strategy and managing the country, while focused on only the top priorities.

So, is a country, like Israel with 7 million people, his biggest priority?

Obama has a national economic crisis, the Iranian and North Korean threats of a nuclear nature, a healthcare system in shambles, wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, etc.

So, is Obama focused on the wrong items or is he too inexperienced to know that there is a finite amount he can deal with at any one time?

I do not know the answer, but if you are an executive, are you trying to do too much or are you focused on the right strategic tasks right now?
