High-performing companies are laser-focused on growth and innovation. It's not uncommon for management teams to believe sound human capital practices are a luxury… great in principle, but simply not practical given the pressures of today’s economy. The hard fact is, every company makes critical long-term decisions early in their history about:

•     Who they hire

•     How they compensate them

•     How performance is measured

These decisions are especially noticeable in the biomedical and IT industries, as companies in these fields depend on highly compensated, highly skilled employees to succeed. This Building Blocks series will focus on how human capital policy choices shape competitive position—no matter what stage a business is in. Hear from Newport Media and ClariPHy Communications about how HR initiatives give them the ability to hire—and keep—the best employees, and thus the freedom to focus on driving key business goals.

Following this discussion, you will better understand that when the right human capital practices are established in the early stages, companies are better positioned for long-term growth.
