Human Investment Management

The book advocates for a transformative approach to managing human resources, proposing the concept of human investment management (HIM) as a replacement for traditional human resource management (HRM). It emphasizes viewing employees as investment instruments rather than mere resources, suggesting that with proper selection and training, all individuals can be productive. HIM focuses on maximizing returns from employees while minimizing costs, aiming to enhance their value continuously. This shift encourages a strategic alignment of human management with organizational goals, fostering a more inclusive and effective workplace.
