But what does that mean and how can this be measured and managed? How many organizations know whether their human capital outperforms their competitors', or even whether it improves year-over-year? And what is the strategy for continually improving that performance? The New Human Capital Strategy is a roadmap for delivering measurable business results by systematically improving the performance of those in roles most important to customers and shareholders. Proposing a radical shift in the way organizations measure and manage their people, the book asserts that competitive advantage is a function of four areas of strength: - effective executive teams - leaders who deliver results - outperforming competitors in key positions - workforce performance Using examples, research, and metrics, this essential guide provides readers with a system for ensuring that their people are more valuable this year than the last.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>..". provides a well-researched, pragmatic approach to developing human talent with a business setting...Recommended." -- Choice magazine<br><br><P> "The statement 'People are our greatest source of competitive advantage' is hackneyed at best, but still it is true. Author Bradley Hall thinks the main problem is that the leadership in companies doesn't know if their employees are 'better' <P> than their competitor peers and whether they continue to improve annually. He proposes a radical new way of identifying and measuring precisely which activities are most and least responsible for sustained growth, and determining, much the way financial analysis does, which human capital investments will pay dividends over and over. The book maps out a way for HR departments to deliver true business results, and tie human capital initiatives directly and consistently to bottom-line results...The book enables both general managers and HR professionals to create a blueprint of human capital success and a strategy and system for achieving it. In so doing, it calls for 'blowing up' today's HR paradigm and questions many of its assumptions." <P> IHRIM JOURNAL MAGAZINE<br><br>.".. provides a well-researched, pragmatic approach to developing human talent with a business setting...Recommended." -- Choice magazine<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><P> Bradley W.
