The average rating for Human Capital based on 2 reviews is 3 stars.

Review # 1 was written on 2010-07-22 00:00:00 Joey Smith Conclusions on intercultural differences or theories are not 100% accurate at times (a bit of overgeneralizing and unfortunately I have to disagree in some of its observations) and it seems to be lacking empirical data to support the theories.

Review # 2 was written on 2011-07-26 00:00:00 Lynn Ringeisen sparse, written for the action-oriented, to use his own terminology. I would have liked more examples of how the situation plays out with a manager of one orientation and employees of another. There is a faux-case study that is revisited throughout the book but the "voice" is off, it gives the same judgmental attitude to every "character," when I think only some of them would think that way. Useful paradigms: "ascribed" versus "achieved" authority; and the model of action/ process/ task/ role orientation.
