Managing intellectual capital: from theory to practice

Article Abstract:

Knowldege management is moving from the theoretical stage to the practical stage. A symposium hosted by Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development addressed the issue of measuring and reporting intellectual capital. The reporting and accounting process needs to be modified to incorporate the value of knowledge, an intangible item, into the formalized reporting framework. If this is accomplished, financial statements will become more relevant for decision-makers.
