Abstract

The speed of technology, availability of information, and globalization have forced firms to view their human capital as an asset. With human capital being considered an asset, best modes of management must be examined to ensure it is being properly utilized and realizing the greatest value possible. The question then is the following: how does a firm know they are using their human capital properly, or if they are getting the greatest value from this intangible asset? To answer these questions, it poses the need for a firm’s human resources (HR) management to be mindful of the impact that it can have on everyday operations.
