Establishing the organization, sourcing for human capital, maintaining human capital, and developing human capital has been the major and an enriching journey through this course. We did not only learn how to look for the right person with the right skill for the right job, I equally learned that we need to put in place a fostering or enabling environment that will permit these skills to develop. Human capital is a million dollar resource, the organization will not just handle with left-handedness.

Human Capital Strategy
From the general overview I have come to realize that most common job values can be fully developed with an in-depth of understanding based on reflections of human capital.
The strategies learnt throughout this course gives clear indications of how an organization can efficiently grow if they clearly understand their roles, mission and values.
Also general recruitment in organization can be done effectively, this will reduce impulse recruitment that sometimes become draw back to most organizations operations.
The course has actually provided a clear beginning within my organization by laying out foundations of how best we can work towards developing all infrastructure for better operations in future
