La ventaja competitiva de las empresas no radica en sus recursos materiales, energéticos, financieros, ni tecnológicos, sino en el nivel de formación y gestión de sus recursos humanos. Ya Bill Gates decía a finales del siglo XX que una empresa gestiona, esencialmente, datos, documentos y el trabajo de las personas, y que por ello su finalidad es mejorar la manera en que las personas colaboran entre ellas. En esta nueva edición se reiteran los conceptos, tecnologías y enfoque de la edición anterior, y se describe el rol de la tecnología en la Gestión del Recurso Humano (GRH), el capital intelectual en la empresa, la gestión por competencias, la selección de personal, los planes de carrera, la organización que aprende (learning organization) y la compensación laboral. Se incluye un nuevo capítulo sobre evaluación del desempeño laboral y su relación con el desempeño estratégico empresarial bajo el modelo conceptual de análisis GRH-DPC (Diagnóstico, Planificación y Control). Este texto sirve de referencia para estudiantes de pregrado y posgrado en Administración de Empresas, Psicología y Trabajo Social, y sobre todo para directivos y profesionales que tienen fe en el mejoramiento humano.

This influential book establishes the enduring vocabulary and concepts in the burgeoning field of knowledge management. It serves as the hands-on resource of choice for companies that recognize knowledge as the only sustainable source of competitive advantage going forward. Drawing from their work with more than thirty knowledge-rich firms, Davenport and Prusak--experienced consultants with a track record of success--examine how all types of companies can effectively understand, analyze, measure, and manage their intellectual assets, turning corporate wisdom into market value. They categorize knowledge work into four sequential activities--accessing, generating, embedding, and transferring--and look at the key skills, techniques, and processes of each. While they present a practical approach to cataloging and storing knowledge so that employees can easily leverage it throughout the firm, the authors caution readers on the limits of communications and information technology in managing intellectual capital.

Este libro, publicado por primera vez en el año 2004, ya había sido objeto de una revisión completa en el año 2008. Fiel a su propósito de mantener vivas y actualizadas sus obras, Martha Alles ahora, en 2017, ha realizado una relectura del libro, a partir de la cual, sin modificar su estructura, le ha introducido numerosos cambios a la luz de las nuevas realidades del contexto y de la propia evolución de la disciplina. La obra trata la cuestión del talento de las personas en un contexto laboral. Su enfoque consiste en la segmentación de sus partes componentes, que no son otras que las competencias requeridas por el puesto actual o futuro, lo que permite así identificar el talento, medirlo y desarrollarlo. Se explican una variedad de métodos dirigidos a mejorar competencias, entrenamiento en sus diferentes variantes, el rol del jefe entrenador, codesarrollo y autodesarrollo, tanto dentro como fuera del trabajo. En esta última variante se utilizan una serie de técnicas tales como deportes, hobbies, actividades extracurriculares, lecturas, análisis de películas y referentes. Este libro está dirigido a todos aquellos que estén interesados y comprometidos con el desarrollo de los recursos humanos en las organizaciones. Para profesores que utilicen este libro como base para sus cursos de grado y de posgrado, Martha Alles ha incorporado material de apoyo para clases y sus respectivos casos prácticos, que se ofrece libremente vía Internet, en la Sala de Profesores del sitio www.marthaalles.com.
