Individual competence is people�s capacity to act in various situations. It includes skill, education, experience, values and social skills. People are the only true agents in business; all assets and structures, whether tangible physical products or intangible relations, are the result of human action and depend ultimately on people for their continued existence. Competence cannot be owned by anyone or anything but the person who possesses them, because when all is said and done employees are voluntary members of the organisation.
A case can, however, be made for including competence in the balance sheet, because it is impossible to conceive of an organisation without people. People tend to be loyal, if they are treated fairly and feel a sense of shared responsibility. That is why companies are generally willing to pay some kind of compensation to those who retire, or have to be laid off. This kind of compensation varies from country to country, but often takes the form of redundancy pay, umbrella agreements ("golden parachutes") and pensions. Although such commitments are not recorded as liabilities in the balance sheet, they can be seen as pledges or commitments, like leasing or rental contracts, and thus a form of invisible financing of employee competence.
