This is one of the most important discoveries Gallup has ever made says the companys Chairman Jim Clifton.In a provocative book for business and government leaders Clifton describes how this undeniable fact will affect all leadership decisions as countries wage war to produce the best jobs.Leaders of countries and cities Clifton says should focus on creating good jobs because as jobs go so does the fate of nations. Jobs bring prosperity peace and human development  but long-term unemployment ruins lives cities and countries.Creating good jobs is tough and many leaders are doing many things wrong. Theyre undercutting entrepreneurs instead of cultivating them. Theyre running companies with depressed workforces. Theyre letting the next generation of job creators rot in bad schools.A global jobs war is coming and theres no time to waste. Cities are crumbling for lack of good jobs. Nations are in revolt because their people cant get good jobs. The cities and countries that act first  that focus everything they have on creating good jobs  are the ones that will win.The Coming Jobs War offers a clear brutally honest look at Americas biggest problem and a cogent prescription for solving it.
