The Human Capital Advantage

In the CEO Afterlife

Competitive intangibles are the source from which competitive advantage flows or goes, and human capital is the primary source of every competitive intangible. My soapbox rants on leadership, strategy and executional principles and practices are for naught without the right human capital in the right place at the right time, every time. In the pursuit of the best human capital, this is a very good thing because great leaders never stop trying. .

Human capital. How inspir…zzzzzzz

ReImagine Work

If you are in business, you might hear the term “human capital” and not give it a second thought. It objectifies those who are employed to get work done —also known as human beings.

Are You Managing Human Capital or Leading People?

The Practical Leader

Is your organization staffed by human capital? ” Phrases like “head count,” “human capital,” and “my people,” dehumanize and objectify. We could push this further and make the same argument for “human resources.” This year’s survey by Deloitte (with the badly chosen title of Human Capital Trends) concludes that organizations need to reinvent themselves with a human focus.
