NSW Department of Lands wins Emerald Literati Award for its work measuring intellectual capital

A paper outlining the development of an intellectual capital measurement, management and reporting framework at the NSW Department of Lands has won an Emerald Literati Award as one of the outstanding contributions to the world's top management publications in 2006.

Authored by Christina Boedker, UNSW and the SKE, Sydney University's Professor James Guthrie and MGSM's Suresh Cuganesan, the article, An integrated framework for visualising intellectual capital, highlighted the techniques and benefits of developing an intellectual capital value creation framework as an analytical model for extending the breadth and depth of existing management consulting and research practices of intellectual capital.

The paper, originally published in Journal of Intellectual Capital, Vol 6, No 4, was commended for illustrating a practical way of enabling senior management to visualise and assess the contribution of the knowledge-intensive resources to organisational value creation.

Only 50 out of the 20,000 papers assessed by Emerald are selected by an independent review team for a special citation of excellence award every year. Emerald Management Reviews is an online database of 190,000 article summaries from management publications the world over.
