Sommario/riassunto

Business executives and managers are increasingly working in a highly competitive environment, where identifying the main drivers of performance is vital for the survival of firms. Intellectual capital is a crucial matter for firms worldwide, and the disclosure of intellectual capital has been identified as one of the major drivers of performance. This book examines the impact of intellectual capital disclosure on the performance of listed firms which adopt the balanced scorecard approach. The book is a product of research that offers innovative analysis and proves that managers of firms can use the disclosure of intellectual capital to boost performance. It reveals how using the balanced scorecard as a measurement tool for intellectual capital disclosure can drive the performance of firms. Students in postgraduate programmes and academics, as well as business executives and managers, will find this book to be an essential guide to maximizing intellectual capital disclosure to boost performance.
