The author considers the questions relating to the formation of lawyers’ professional traits from the point of view of the significance which human capital and investment in this capital hold in contemporary times. It follows from the analyses, which were carried out, that the dire need for taking up actions with the aim to shape lawyers appears one of the most vital tasks. This requires taking into account visible trends in the changing job market. Another aspect results from the need for multilevel qualifications and conditions behind lawyers’ actions and their decisions. Thus, colleges of higher education which educate prospective lawyers, as well as lawyers’ corporations, are confronted by challenges of forming, in young people, features that are indispensable for them to be valuable lawyers and not only executors of simple activities. The author points to the fact that lawyers need shaping because, among others, during their whole social lives and realization of professional tasks their personality traits and potential related to communication will constantly manifest through accepting and following or rejecting and opposing values, principles, reflexions, empathy, sensitivity, the farthest-fetched imagination, objectivism, cooperation, dialogue, distancing themselves from political disputes, etc. Students of the art of law should be characterized by a changed mentality, new vision of law – service to man, and realization of standards of law, as well as perception of the importance of knowledge, skills, attitudes and competences.

The paper focuses on the issues regarding the development and accumulation of human capital in Poland in 1998-2012, which have been analysed in respect of the formation of social capital resources. The project aims to verify a hypothesis assuming that Poland is characterized by an insufficient synergy in the development of these two types of capital. It has been presumed that this inconsistency reduces the benefits flowing from human capital accumulation processes and may create a significant barrier to achieving a higher level of development. These speculations have been presented in a broader view on the factors which „mobilize” the human capital to function – from the perspective of the components comprising the intellectual capital. In order to illustrate the position of Poland and the challenges facing the country, the analysis has been formed in an international context. The comparative analyses also use the data provided by various social surveys, such as e.g. the European Social Value, the World Values Survey, the Social Diagnosis, the World Economic Forum’s reports, the results of the research by C. Yeh-Yun Lin and L. Edvinsson (conducted among the group of 40 countries in 1995-2008) as well as the author’s own research work.The confrontation of the paths of the development of human capital and social capital in Poland in 1998-2012 reveals a positive upward trend for these two types of capital. Such harmony towards the development may largely be attributed to the positive influence of human capital on social capital. Low social capital resources make it difficult for such a relationship to occur the other way round. However, this could hardly be called the integration of development processes, since the fundamental problem concerns the differential development dynamics of these two types of capital (higher for human capital, lower for social capital), as well as extremely low social capital resources in Poland at the beginning of the transformation. This indicates that differences in human and social capital may continue to increase in the future. The insufficient integration of the development of human and social capital seems as a severe limitation of the innovativeness and the effective use of human capital in action.

The aim of the article was to identify and quantify the impact of human potential on the level of innovation of the Visegrad Group (V4) countries. In the theoretical part of the considerations, a critical analysis of the literature on the subject and a library query were used, while in the empirical part a statistical analysis was applied, which included the characteristics of a sample of selected features, an analysis of a series of correlations examining the matching of features, and an analysis of the results obtained. The collected data was compiled using descriptive statistics - average values, dynamics of changes, and Pearson's correlation coefficient. In the course of the analysis, it was possible to identify several dependencies with a fairly strong or moderate strength of the relationship. The main conclusions include the fact that there is a fairly strong positive correlation between human resources in science and technology and expenditure on research and development in the enterprise sector. The practical implication of the study may be the fact of diagnosing the main attributes of human capital which, in turn, may be interpreted as outlining a certain field for the application of a targeted policy aimed at increasing the innovativeness of the Visegrad Group.

Human capital is a category that has been the subject of economists’ considerations for years. Numerous concepts, research approaches and various ways of classifying capital have appeared. Since the 1990s, in accordance with the fundamental principle of dualism, according to which capital is an abstract category, an alternative scientific research program has been conducted in the field of measuring human capital and fair wages. This program was initiated by M. Dobija and has been followed by a team of researchers from the Cracow University of Economics. The program in question is based on a proper understanding of the capital category. It has been consistently developing, and the scientific research covers a wide range of theories related to human capital and fair remuneration. The purpose of this study is to present the impact of capital from experience on the level of the fair remuneration of employees. The human capital model, in the presented considerations enables the measurement of employee qualifications in monetary units and a fair pay model. A case study on the impact from experience capital on the level of fair remuneration of employees was also presented.

Kapitał ludzki to kategoria, która od lat stanowi temat rozważań ekonomistów. Powstały liczne koncepcje, podejścia badawcze oraz różne sposoby klasyfikacji kapitału. Od lat 90. ubiegłego stulecia, w zgodzie z fundamentalną zasadą dualizmu według której kapitał stanowi kategorię abstrakcyjną, prowadzony jest alternatywny naukowy program badawczy w zakresie pomiaru kapitału ludzkiego i godziwych płac. Program ten zapoczątkował M. Dobija, a kontynuuje go zespół badaczy z UEK w Krakowie. Wspomniany program opiera się na właściwym rozumieniu kategorii kapitału. Prowadzone badania naukowe obejmują wiele teorii związanych z kapitałem ludzkim i godziwym wynagrodzeniem. Celem niniejszego opracowania jest przedstawienie wpływu kapitału z doświadczenia na wysokość godziwych wynagrodzeń pracowników. W tekście zaprezentowano model kapitału ludzkiego umożli-wiający pomiar kwalifikacji pracownika w jednostkach pieniężnych oraz model płacy godziwej. Przedstawiono również studium przypadku dotyczące wpływu kapitału z doświad-czenia na wysokość godziwych wynagrodzeń pracowników.

Specjalne strefy ekonomiczne (SSE) są instrumentem wspierania rozwoju regionalnego, a jednym z celów powołania ich do funkcjonowania w Polsce było tworzenie nowych miejsc pracy. W większości polskich stref priorytet ten wyrażony został w planach rozwojowych w formie celu aktywizacji rynku pracy, wzrostu poziomu wykształcenia i kwalifikacji pracowników. W artykule autorzy stawiają zatem tezę, że w istotę funkcjonowania stref ekonomicznych w Polsce wpisuje się nie tylko zagospodarowanie, ale także rozwój kapitału ludzkiego. W szczególności celem artykułu była ocena, czy i w jakim stopniu Podstrefa Lublin Specjalnej Strefy Ekonomicznej Euro-Park Mielec, która stała się podmiotem przeprowadzonych przez autorów badań, przyczynia się do zagospodarowania i rozwoju kapitału ludzkiego miasta Lublin. W pierwszej części artykułu omówione zostały teoretyczne przesłanki znaczenia polskich stref ekonomicznych dla kształtowania kapitału ludzkiego w obszarach objętych ich oddziaływaniem, w drugiej części natomiast skupiono uwagę na prezentacji wyników badań ankietowych przeprowadzonych w przedsiębiorstwach z Podstrefy w Lublinie. Z badań wynika, że kapitał ludzki miasta jest ważnym czynnikiem przyciąga inwestorów do Podstrefy, z kolei realizowane w Podstrefie inwestycje przyczyniają się do powstawania nowych miejsc pracy, głównie dla ludzi młodych i z wykształceniem co najmniej średnim. Podstawowym kanałem rozwijania kapitału ludzkiego są szkolenia wewnętrzne w badanych firmach i naturalna możliwość nabywania doświadczenia i doskonalenia umiejętności w toku wykonywanej przez pracowników pracy, bądź w toku odbywania przez studentów praktyk. Wciąż jednak poprawy wymaga dostosowywanie programów nauczania na poziomie szkolnictwa wyższego do potrzeb pracodawców z Podstrefy.

Special economic zone (SEZ) is an instrument for regional development. One of the purposes for SEZs creation in Poland, it was the creation of new jobs. In the majority of Polish zones this priority has been expressed in plans of development as the need for labor market activation and increase in the level of education and qualifications of employees. The authors state that the essence of the functioning of economic zones in Poland include not only new jobs creation but also the development of human capital. In particular, the aim of this article is evaluation whether and to what extent the Lublin Subzone of Euro-Park Mielec Special Economic Zone, which became the subject of research conducted by the authors, contributes to the development of human capital of Lublin city. The paper presents the results of studies conducted in enterprises from Lublin Subzone. In the first part of the article, the theoretical aspects of the importance of Polish economic zones for the shaping of human capital are discussed. In the second part the attention has been focused on the presentation of the results of surveys conducted in enterprises from Lublin Subzone. The research shows that the human capital of the city is an important factor in attracting investors to the Subzone, while investment implemented in the Subzone contribute to the creation of new jobs, especially for young people and with at least secondary education. The main channel of the development of human capital is internal training in the surveyed companies as well as natural opportunity to gain experience and skills in the course of work performed by the employees, or in the course of students practice. However, the adaptation of curricula in higher education to the needs of employers Subzone should have been improved.

The paper aims to identify potential threats and opportunities in reference with combining full-time studies with gainful employment from the perspective of future transition of the graduates to the labor market. A hypothesis whether the job of the full-time students provides professional experience, required by employers, was verified. Moreover, it discusses if their professional activity may constitute a solid tie between education and the work after graduation, when continued at the same workplace. The conclusions were drawn, based on the results of the survey conducted over a population of students in the master’s degree course in economics at the University of Economics in Katowice in years 20142016. According to the survey, students rarely undertake job in compliance with their area of study, however, the majority gains valuable skills and competences. Additionally, it proves there exist certain obstacles while combining studies with job which poses a real threat to educational capital. The research also unveiled that less than one third of the students consider present job as a running start to future employment, mainly due to their lack of interest in such a solution.

This paper develops the value based model of a firm from a conventional accounting based approach to on e that acknowledges individuals' human capital and firms' competences as fundamental creator s of value. Both have distinctive characteristics, but may be integrated from the perspective of their holders through various contracts, which then constitute cont ractual assets enhancing a firm ´ s capital. Product ownership constitutes another vital component of value determination and is one of the reasons firms enhance its value, either by taking protective action, or by designing hard to replicate strategies. Thi s paper a ddress es a current issue and presents potential means by which to determine firms' strategies in highly competitive business environments driven primarily by innovations, as well as for the design of appropriate types and terms of contracts. In it s reasoning, the paper is exceptional by aggregating the findings of firm theory with those of modern financial theory, proposing real and embedded options within an appropriate quantitative framework.

The consolidated tourist destinations are facing a stagnation situation, preamble to decline, stay, or rejuvenate (Butler, 1980). This perspective raises the need to develop strategies at national, local and organizational levels to maintain or increase the influx, spending and tourist permanence that generates greater benefits to the destination, which implies, necessarily, having human capital possessing ability, as well as the technical and behavioral competencies sufficient to cater to these visitors. The purpose of the study is to analyze the perception of tourists regarding the competences of the human capital in lodging, food and transportation organizations in the city of Mazatlan Sinaloa. The research was conducted using a mixed methodology, being a descriptive, cross-sectional study. A questionnaire was used to develop the field work. The human capital in the tourism sector that operates in the services of accommodation, meals and transportation in the destination of Mazatlan, has enough power from the perception of the visitors. The contribution of this research is considered relevant due to regularly surveyed tourists to learn about the satisfaction of service or from the perception of our human resources, which inferred the search for references about the state of the issue being addressed.

Although talent is considered imperative for gaining a competitive advantage, talent management programs’ effectiveness is unknown. It is believed that consensus on a strong theoretical underpinning for identifying talent and its general definition is yet to be achieved among academia and practitioners. This lack of integration and agreement on a single definition among scholars lead to more confusion which inhibits the advancement of talent management scholarship. The notion also requires renewed attention in the post-pandemic era because everything may not go back to normal as pre-pandemic. This study addresses the gap and focuses on reviewing the existing scholarship on talent definitions and its conceptualization in one place. The study also aims to present the potential implications of talent definition on talent management practices. Among the various implications discussed, it is argued that a single approach to talent definition makes the company vulnerable as it is not using the full potential of talent management. Finally, based on this in-depth review, the study will highlight potential critical research areas towards which the scholarship of talent may be extended.

The Warmińsko-Mazurskie Voivodeship belongs to the group of voivodeships with a low level of economic growth in Poland. When considering the importance of human capital in the process of economic growth stimulation, it should be emphasised that the low level of human capital is one of the obstacles preventing the acceleration of economic growth and improvement in the region. The purpose of the presented analyses was to find the reasons for the low level of human capital in the Warmińsko-Mazurskie Voivodeship. The results, prove that the level of human capital in the regions of Warmia, Mazury and Powiśle results from low competitiveness as regards to higher education, and the low competitiveness potential of the regional economy. In a consequence, the labor market is in an unfavorable situation which leads to the outflow of the most skilled and best-educated parts of the labor force.

In modern economic theories, human qualities are treated as autonomous production factors, which are called “human capital”. However, these theories provide no description of the relationship between human capital and the man who is its “bearer”, nor an explanation of the formation process of that capital. In the thesis, the author tries to justify it as follows: human qualities, including knowledge and skills, are an integral part of a human being, that is, they are involved in every human act. It is, therefore, wrong to analyse their economic significance in isolation from the whole structure of human activity. Through his or her action, man discovers the potential in things and relationships in the form of the possibility of using them for a particular purpose. Capital is thus realized by the human potential of things that form a system for transforming the world. In the first part of the article, a general description of human capital will be provided. In the second part, it will be criticized, while in the third part, there will be an attempt to show the proper relationship between man and capital from the perspective of personalism.

Purpose: The theory of endogenous growth suggests a number of relations between income inequality and human capital. However, empirical evidence in this field is scarce. Therefore, in this paper we aim to demonstrate the existence of interdependencies between income inequality and human capital across OECD countries.Methodology: We present findings of the endogenous growth theory on the mechanisms linking inequality with human capital. Subsequently, we attempt to verify these links empirically using the regression function estimated by means of the generalized method of moments (GMM). The empirical analysis is based on panel data from 1995–2010.Findings: The results of the study reveal the existence of a negative relationship between income inequality and health indicators (infant mortality and maternal mortality). However, we did not reach an authoritative conclusion about the relationship between income inequality and quantitative indicators of educational achievement.Research limitations: Research is limited to the sample of OECD countries. Interdependencies between income inequality and human capital could be captured more clearly using a broader sample.Originality: This paper presents one of few studies testing the relation between human capital and income inequality. The use of high-quality empirical data on inequality (SWIID data) and the generalized method of moments made it possible to contribute new arguments to the discussion of empirical analyses of these economic categories.

Nowadays the value and the market position of an enterprise is more and more commonly a derivative of human capital of a given organisation. The development of human capital requires appropriate reporting and measurement. An analysis of instruments of identification and reporting human capital applied so far, in the light of intellectual capital, allows to state that there is no single universal instrument of identification and reporting human capital. Most researchers opt for multi-index tools, without specifying the way of calculating each index. Additionally, models developed so far focus, in a selective manner, on individual areas of human capital and provide separate indices for particular categories of human resources (e.g. only for management staff, or only for the clericals). Most methods are based both on qualitative and quantitative indices. The authors of the study find that, due to the complex nature of the human capital phenomenon, it is not possible to provide a method based on one index. They propose a multi-index, authors’ model for the analysis of human capital from several perspectives simultaneously: the perspective of costs; the perspective of time and quantity; the perspective of effectiveness; financial perspective and quality perspective. In total there are 28 indices, operationalised in detail, calculated in an annual perspective for the management staff and for the executive employees. Due to the simplicity of measures in the developed method, it can be applied by all enterprises, irrespective of their size.

Trust is one of the central values in social and organisational life. Values are created by particular people or specified social groups. Human resource management in an organisation should therefore establish proper interpersonal relations based on trust. The literature on the subject presents many definitions and statements of researchers, referring to the activities which build trust. Trust building in the organisation is an element connecting employees with the organisation. The role of staff management is to present employee-friendly behaviours and to avoid behaviours which undermine trust. There is therefore an urgent need for trust management in modern organisations.
