Key trends in human capital: A global perspective – 2008


Maximising the value of organisational resources has never been more challenging. This third edition of Key trends in human capital builds on the critical issues that we have identified in earlier years, and introduces new developments of major interest to all executives involved in people management.

Increasingly, there is a truly global appetite for human capital information as a tool to help promote sustainable economic performance. Unlike many other human capital reports, however, we place particular focus upon financial results and their direct relationship with human capital performance. Our report is primarily based on data collected from our Saratoga international human capital database, supplemented by additional research such as findings from the PricewaterhouseCoopers 10th and 11th global CEO surveys.

The report is organised within five key headings containing specific commentary on the trends that affect them:
  • Human capital impact
  • Human capital drivers
  • Human capital foundations
  • Human capital futures
  • The human resource function
