People are just such.The value of people in our organisations is an intangible asset, but it’s not on the balance sheet. Stock prices of our companies do little justice in reflecting the contribution of our human resource to their listing figures. To most senior executives, this is a troublesome problem because assets present as both an influencer of value and a predictor of risk.
