Abstract: In today's knowledge driven economy, mere procurement and management of tangible assets is not the end for survival and growth of an organization. Historically, companies had focused primarily on measuring and managing the tangible assets. There are other assets, which are often overlooked – Intangible Assets. Organizations lead towards success because of inherent intangible assets. The problems start when managers try to measure the intangible wealth with traditional measurement tools available to them. The focus of this paper is to highlight the importance of managing and measuring intangible asset – human capital, which is overlooked in traditional accounting system.
