Excerpt from Anne Muchoney, Subject Specialist, Virginia Campus Library, George Washington University, 05/18/94
In Human Capability, Jaques and Cason construct the framework and offer supportive research for a new method of objectively measuring human capability and predicting individual success in the workplace. . . intended for both academic psychologists studying cognitive processes as well as human resource development professionals engaged in the application of such research within organizations.
In Human Capability, Jaques and Cason construct the framework and offer supportive research for a new method of objectively measuring human capability and predicting individual success in the workplace. . . intended for both academic psychologists studying cognitive processes as well as human resource development professionals engaged in the application of such research within organizations.
Jaques and Cason, building upon extensive previous research by Jaques, offer a detailed system of measurement to apply when assessing an individual's mental complexity and potential capability. The ideas in Human Capability are provocative and powerful. . . successfully challeng[ing] society's reliance on imperfect instruments of intelligence measurement and capability assessment.
I recommend this book to large academic libraries serving graduate programs in human resource development studies, business and management, psychology and education. Well organized and includes a detailed index and a bibliography. The appendices include illustrative case material and a summary of Jaques' previous publications on the subject.
Book Description
Reporting research that provides an invaluable tool for utilizing individual capability, it makes it possible for talent pool development programs to effectively meet the organization's future human resource requirements.
