  • Chapter
Value Creation, Reporting, and Signaling for Human Capital and Human Assets

Abstract

“Even in these financially challenging times, business performance always comes down to a firm’s competitive advantages” (Teixeira & Werther, 2013, p. 333), while most of the sources dealing with intellectual capital (IC) point to the fact that IC can make significant contributions to and serve as a basis for competitive advantage, especially in the so-called knowledge era or knowledge economy (e.g., Armstrong, 2005; C.-J. Chen & Huang, 2009; Costa, 2012; Farsani, Bidmeshgipour, Habibi, & Rashidi, 2012; Gowthorpe, 2009; Guthrie, Ricceri, & Dumay, 2012; Joia, 2000; Obeidat, 2012; Ramezan, 2011; Russ, 2009; Spender, 2005; Sveiby, 1997; K. Wang, Chiang, & Tung, 2012; Wiig, 1997a) of the twenty-first century.
