Abstract
My background is not that of an HR practitioner and, as far as I can see, I am the only non-HR specialist to have written a book about human capital. I have approached the topic from the perspective of a practising chair and trustee with private, public and non-profit experience at directorial, including CEO, levels. I am very aware of the multitude of information, generic and specific, that directors and trustees have to absorb, but I hope this book will be digestible, and its key themes understood and acted upon.
The way you see people is the way you treat them, and the way you treat them is what they become.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749–1832), writer and statesman.
