The point is not to nod in the direction of the "little people," but instead to recognize that the intangible assets an organization has are the product of the hundreds, perhaps the thousands, of "assists" — to extend the basketball metaphor — that usually go unnoticed but without which problems would not get solved, insights would not be generated, and uncertainties would not be vanquished. Interestingly, intangible assets are all the rage these days on Wall Street.

Most organizations say their most important assets are their people, but few behave as if this were true. There is still a whole notion of focusing on tangible assets and their impact on the bottom line, rather than the intangible assets, which are people. Here''s a real shocker: In a survey of 3,300 senior managers and human resource professionals reported by Rob Lebow in his Washington CEO magazine. 75% of all organizational change programs fail.

Using the same formula, Apple’s intangible assets in 2014 were $280 billion — or almost twice the value of its 2015 calculation. The challenge is to quantify the precise value of data to a firm so that economic value can be ascribed to this asset class over time.

Our current financial accounting model cannot capture the principle value creator for digital companies: increasing return to scale on intangible investments.

An informed shareholder, who looks beyond earnings numbers and analyzes the company’s intangible assets, would notice that the firm has mortgaged its future. Gathering information on a firm’s intangible assets is costly, and so not worth doing if you own only a tiny bit of stock in a company.

Manufacturers invest most of their capital into physical assets, while high-tech firms invest in R&D to create new intellectual capital. But all assets are not created equal, especially as the technological landscape changes. Even when these firms rely on physical assets, like cars for Uber, they own the technology, not the physical asset.

Decades ago, a company’s market value was nearly equivalent to its tangible assets—buildings, machinery, materials, financial capital, and so on. In 1975 intangible assets were just 17% of the market value of the S&P 500. But today those proportions are flipped: intangible assets now make up 84% of the market value of the S&P 500.
