Developing human and social capital in organisations

Abstract

Argues for the importance of developing social capital in organisations. If training stays focused on the individual (human capital) level it may be missing out on important changes in developing organisational performance. The use of self managed learning (SML) is examined through reference to two cases where SML programmes have been carefully evaluated and shown to contribute to the development of both social capital and human capital.
