Abstract

In a recent interview in the Harvard Business Review. Peter Drucker argues that the best criteria for evaluating employees in Post‐Capitalism is competency. Self‐knowledge, empathy, and the ability to absorb information are the major qualities of a competent person. Competent people are scarce commodities. Firms wanting to achieve a competitive place in the marketplace, must attract competent employees and nurture tendencies toward self‐knowledge. In a post‐capitalist era, this is no longer a luxury; rather, it is the only way to ensure survival.
