Resumen
In this new world where the level of information has reached overwhelming thanks to new technologies , the human capital embodied in a stock value, skill and knowledge, becomes the main factor of production in the new economy. In this paper I have tried to emphasize that, this relatively new concept such as human capital has become the main motor of organizational development, representing one of the most important advantages of firms to work properly in their environments. The economic growth is conditioned by human capital development; current trends are changing and organizations change their outward form of thought and action and they enhance their human capital (this intangible asset too little highlighted and measured) from the desire of being more flexible and easily assimilated by the market in the future. For modern companies, human capital has become a ?golden coin? with 2 sides called: 1) capability (the ability to provide solutions to customers through knowledge, skills, know-how, and talent); 2) attitude (the ability to profitably use these values of the organization). In conclusion, human capital is measured using IQ and the productivity of modern economies depend largely on investment in knowledge and skills, although statistics in Romania do not include costs and expenses of human capital.
