Analysis of Innovation-Based Human Resources for Sustainable Development

Abstract

The spread of innovation-based human resources will accelerate by the emergence of new business areas, knowledge, skills, and expansion of high value-added production. A research, analyzing a survey of the world's largest 500 companies indicates that 80 % of the value of a company was to create tangible assets 40 years ago whereas, today, large companies constitute 80 % of their values to property rights and high-quality of human resources. The analysis made by the OECD for countries such as USA, France, Denmark, Germany and other OECD members indicates that a relationship has been found between human resources that has grown in the field of science-technology and the development in technology and innovation. On the other hand, technical innovation has been emphasized as an important factor in human resources management. The number of studies conducted in the subjects of technological and overall innovation, human resources management and entrepreneurship has increased in recent years. In this study, innovation-based human resources analysis employed by Western and Far East Asian countries will be analysed through content analysis and the subject will be evaluated in terms of Turkey. In this study, the linear relationship between sustainable development and innovation-based human resources will be investigated. Through multiple analysis methods, innovation-based human resources analysis will be handled especially in developing countries. Training of human resources in this context will be an important opportunity for future as in the example of Japan and South Korea. This research represents a significant analysis of data carefully studied through OECD and other international resources. (C) 2015 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
