Aligning Human Capital Metrics to Business Strategy
The importance of human capital is increasing as globalization creates a rapid shift to a knowledge economy. Metrics of human capital not only include HR practices, but also other work practices and people management strategies. The distinction is that human capital can extend beyond the HR function to include the organization’s total strategy. Since organizations see human capital as an asset to drive value and optimize business performance, strategies that align human capital practices to support performance are in demand.
Demonstrating which HR practices improve business performance can be challenging. Concrete measures to evaluate the effectiveness of these practices are more elusive.
