Abstract

Explore the role and impact of the nuclear plant workforce to survive and excel in the industry. With looming deregulation, the necessity to realize the maximum return on all of a company´s assets will become increasingly critical. Developing and maximizing the investment in human capital is essential to industry survival and competitiveness. Learn how this source of capital can be developed, fostered, and nurtured. The post-industrial society is unlike any other period in history and the human component is the key to survivability and success. Learn the importance of capitalizing on this all too under recognized asset
