Intellectual Capital Process Model
Intellectual capital management The intellectual capital process (4 steps approach). • Matching with the organizational epistemology: • The vision and mission of the organization. • Translating the vision into strategies. • Identifying key success factors (KSFs). • Measuring the KSFs (put indicators to reflect each KSF)
Intellectual capital System: the process model Human Capital Customer Capital Business Process Capital Renewal & Development Capital
Step 1: Matching with the organizational epistemology: The vision and mission of the organization. Understand Who you are & Who you want to be? OWNERS Vision mission
Step 2: Translating the vision into strategies Vision mission Strategies • Identification of strategy • No limited to the number of strategy • Top level management’ duty
Step 3: Translating the trategies to key success factors Strategies KSFs • Identification of KSFs is the most important step • KSFs are the must do action • No limited to the number of KSFs • Should be prioritized • Senior managers’ duty
Step 4: Measuring the KSFs (put indicators to reflect each KSF) KSFs Indicators • KSFs => indicators (proxies number) • The manager of the business unit suggests indicators
Developing an IC System Vision: the first choice of customers for insurance business Mission / strategy: to be the marketplace for the movement of selected investment funds and optional insurance KSFs (ranged No. 1): To establish long-term relationship with satisfied customer Indicators: (proxies number / should be ranged) • Satisfied customer index (2) • Customer barometer (3) • Number of news sales (5) • Market share (4) • Lapse rate (1) • Average respond time at the call center • Average handling time for completed cases • New customer (5)
Putting It Together • The indicators needs to be expressed in term of capital identified by the company • Create a common language between the theoretical thought behind the IC model and the practical indicators • The org. have the same picture of doing business

Intellectual capital System: the process model Human Capital Customer Capital Business Process Capital Renewal & Development Capital
IC - index • IC: measurements are proxy variables or indicators • Number of hours • Number of workers • Number of new products • Number of new customers • level of satisfaction • Etc.,
The creation of a complete set of IC-indices • Review of the existing indicators • Picture of the company IC situation (new process create more happy customer or frustrate employee / form & flow) • Review & adjust (proxies number need multiple indicators) • What each one is really aiming to capture • What it actually measure • What the change in the indicator would signify for the company • Ranking them (find the handful indicators)
IC-Index: distinct features • It is context specific • it is an idiosyncratic measure • it focuses on the monitoring of the dynamics of IC • it is capable of taking into account performance from prior periods • it sheds light on a company different from an external view typically based on an examination of physical assets • it is a self-correcting index in that if performance of the IC-Index does not reflect changes on the market value of the company, then the choice of capital forms, weights, and/or indicators is flawed.
Note: IC weak spots • Trade-off between two alternatives • No. of customers has increased but innovation rate is declined • Comparisons difficulty • Inter-company comparison: homogeneous • Two total different industries: genetic factors • Lack of relation between IC and the financial and physical side of the company
The selection of capital forms, weights and indicators • Making choice of indicators is a bottom up process (day-day operation) • Making choice of weights is a manager consideration • Making choice of capital is a creation value in the business (top manager)
Top-down vs bottom-up process Bottom-up process • The bottom-up approach, on the other hand, takes a knowledge-based view of the firm to guide strategy formulation. (Grant, 1997; Sveiby, 2001) • In this approach organizations match more closely their internal capabilities with the opportunities in the market. (Andrews, 1971) • The bottom-up concept of corporate strategy definition is more internally focused and allows organizations to first identify what they do well and then go out and look for ways to exploit it in the market. (Collins and Montgomery, 1995)
