Summary Are people really an organisation's most important asset? Not necessarily. Some are liabilities - but some undoubtedly are the most important drivers of value that an organisation has. The question is - who are they? How do we know? How would we maximise the value they have and the value they provide? These questions are what human capital management is about. This book explains the answers and discusses approaches to measurement and indicators which enable effective management of value creating assets.
