10. It’s the business model, stupid! The structural capitals 10 ‘On day one of economics A-level, you learn that there are three factors of production: land, labour and capital. Why is it we don’t measure labour? There is a much greater willingness in the UK, a kind of encouragement even, to talk about what the business model is, what the risks to it are, and so on. It feels to me that you’ve got to talk about the value of your people when you talk about that.’ Stephen Haddrill, CEO, The Financial Reporting Council ‘The really smart analysts spent 10 minutes talking about our business results and 40–50 minutes talking about people.’ Doug Baillie, Unilever

21. Case study: Unilever #VyT “We have spent an enormous amount of time examining whether we have the talent engine to sustain an 80 billion euro revenue business. There is a significant amount of talent analytics done around the kinds of people we have, the quality, quantity, where the gaps are, how we’re going to close the gap, etc. We track and see how we are doing across all of these areas. We examine the skills, talent and culture to see if we have what it takes to be the 80 billion euro business we want to be. This is one of the essential roles HR plays in the business by ensuring any gaps in the skills, talent or culture across the business that might harm our 80 billion euro aspirations are covered. It’s all about three years from now; five years from now. We are future-proofing the business.” Leena Nair, Unilever Some organizations are able to predict their talent capability over the short and long term, and begin to forecast impacts on the bottom line: 21 August 2014
