The advent of Human Governance

Value orientation – short, long term; narrow or broad based?

The paradox is that by not pursuing profitability to the exclusion of all else, the Great Engine companies in their Golden Age would achieve enormous increases in value...whereas, by single-mindedly pursuing profit...these same companies and their successors actually created less genuine, lasting wealth; indeed, they would often destroy it.

(The Puritan Gift, Kenneth & William Hopper)

Understanding how human capital drives value & risk:

• “In principle, our organization can only maximize its value if itaims to maximize the value potential of all its capitals; includingthe human capital it directly employs or utilizes via its value(supply) chain, or through other third party stakeholders.”

• “As a responsible organization, using scarce resources, the onlylegitimate and sustainable management philosophy is one ofnever-ending, continuous improvement.”

• “We can only produce the best shareholder and societal value byproviding our best possible products/services at the bestpossible cost, without undue external impact e.g. on theenvironment.”

Human Governance emerges with the recognition that theorganization is committed to the never-ending pursuit ofsocietal value through realizing the full potential value of itsentire human capital.

Human Governance drives higher value, lower risk & ‘good’ outcomes

“social, economic, environmental, and ethical factors directly affect business strategy—for example, how companies attract and retain employees, how they manage the risks and create opportunities from climate change, a company’s culture, corporate-governance standards, stakeholder-engagement strategies, philanthropy, reputation, and brand management.” –David Blood 2007
