International Food and Agribusiness Management Review, 2012, vol. 15, issue A, 8

Abstract: This essay discusses 1) the current agri-food firms’ need of interacting with multiple stakeholders to undertake sustainable strategies effectively, 2) the relationship between human capital and firm capabilities to effectively interact with multiple stakeholders and 3) a list of competencies characterizing the human capital that would meet the need of agrifood firms and which can be learned – at least to some extent – through higher education and on-the-job training.
