MEASUREMENT OF THE HUMAN POTENTIAL BY MEANS OF THE INTERNAL ENTROPY IN THE FIRM
MEASUREMENT OF THE HUMAN POTENTIAL BY MEANS OF THE INTERNAL ENTROPY IN THE FIRM

Summary/Abstract: The approach expressed by its author A. Kopčaj as a Spiral management is based on the philosophy according to which the firm is perceived as a living organism. Living organisms are guided by the principle of reducing their entropy in order to ensure the inevitable energy as well as their long-term survival. The contribution is analysing one of the potential applications of the above-indicated approach to the firm in which the measurement of the so-called internal entropy gives the possibility to determine in a very precise way whether the new managerial approach can be or cannot be implemented in the firm in the current state or whether it is possible to define the strategies for cultivation of the firm´s social capital. The paper proceeds from the data acquired during practical applications of the Spiral management in the environment of the Czech and Slovak companies.
