Adp FocUSeS on SocIAl cApITAlPeople bring to their job more than the human capital they have accumulated through years of education and experience. They also bring social capital, the resources and support they can procure through their network of relationships.

Contemporary organizations, with their leaner hierarchies and global markets, require now more than ever that leaders become the authors of their jobs. Successful people are better at reading their organization, determining what to do and who to involve in getting the job done, and therefore driving organizational transformation. Such leaders have social capital.

Research shows that active participants in a program that was grounded in principles of social capital were:

• 72% more likely to be promoted

• 74% more likely to be retained by their companies

• 42% more likely to receive top performance evaluations
