Human Capital Management
Human Capital Management (HCM) has been described as a high-level strategic issue that seeks to analyse, measure and evaluate how people policies and practices create value. Put simply, HCM is about creating and demonstrating the value that great people and great people management add to an organization. This unique book describes how HCM provides a bridge between human resource management and business strategy. It also demonstrates how organizations can use the concepts of human resource management and the processes involved to enhance the value they obtain from people while continuing to meet their aspirations and needs. Armstrong and Baron explain how to achieve these objectives using var...
Strategic Human Capital Management

Human Capital Management Research
This book highlights the gap between current HRM textbooks and recent research. It covers topics on attracting, developing, managing, and supporting human capital. Each chapter links research to real-world HRM practices and implications. It's aimed at academics, practitioners, and policymakers interested in HRM and human capital development.
Handbook of Research on Strategic Human Capital Resources
Strategic human capital resources are a relatively new construct with a scholarly literature that is still evolving. Work in this area requires the integration of multiple theoretical perspectives and empirical approaches, but that integration rarely occurs. Within these pages, the editors have combined the voices of leading scholars from a wide range of disciplinary backgrounds to provide a comprehensive introduction to the current state of the field.
The New Human Capital Strategy
Top executives routinely state that employees are the most important factor in their company's success-but is the value of human productivity actually improving or just maintaining? This book emphasizes ways to improve a company's human assets, rather than simply managing them well. The process features four dimensions: effective executive teams, leaders who deliver results, beating competitors, and performance improvement. Author Bradley W. Hall, PhD, explains how to achieve excellence in each dimension and achieve the competitive advantage.
Human Capital
Human Capital is Becker's classic study of how investment in an individual's education and training is similar to business investments in equipment. Recipient of the 1992 Nobel Prize in Economic Science, Gary S. Becker is a pioneer of applying economic analysis to human behavior in such areas as discrimination, marriage, family relations, and education. Becker's research on human capital was considered by the Nobel committee to be his most noteworthy contribution to economics. This expanded edition includes four new chapters, covering recent ideas about human capital, fertility and economic growth, the division of labor, economic considerations within the family, and inequality in earnings. "Critics have charged that Mr. Becker's style of thinking reduces humans to economic entities. Nothing could be further from the truth. Mr. Becker gives people credit for having the power to reason and seek out their own best destiny."—Wall Street Journal
Why Human Capital is Important for Organizations

OECD Insights Human Capital
As economies in developed countries shift away from manufacturing industries, economic success for individuals and national economies is increasingly reliant on the quality of human capital. This publication, the first in a new series, examines the increasing socio-economic importance of human capital, with the key determinant relating to an individual's educational attainment, training, skills and competencies. This publication considers how different countries across the OECD are responding to the challenge of raising their levels of human capital, including where countries are failing or succeeding in providing education and training opportunities to support individuals throughout their lives.
Human Capital
At a time when governments and policy-makers put so much emphasis on 'the knowledge economy' and the economic value of education, human capital theory has never been more important. However, research in this area is often very technical and therefore not easily accessible to those who wish to use it as a guide to policy formation. This book provides an interface between such research and its potential applications in government, education and business. Reporting on a major research initiative, new findings are presented in a non-technical way on three major themes: measuring the benefits from human capital, applications of the human capital model, and policy interventions. Aimed at academic researchers and professionals concerned with the problems and techniques of human capital theory, it will also be useful for graduate courses on the economics of education to complement standard textbooks.
