Today, knowledge, innovation, information and relationships impact significantly on profitability and performance. Throughout OECD countries, corporate investment in intangibles (research, education and knowledge) is growing at a faster rate than tangible investments. There has been a significant shift towards a systematic and strategic approach to managing the primary assets of the knowledge economy: people, knowledge processes, and knowledge products.

How can we improve performance and profitability?

The traditional approach to this question focuses primarily on the enterprise’s tangible or financial resources, such as cash, property, buildings, machinery and equipment (what we usually see on a balance sheet). As shown in Figure 1, organisations need to complement the traditional focus on tangible resources by understandinghow intangible, knowledge-based assets also drive business outcomes.
