Correspondingly, all organizations require human working capital  or working people, and they are the most valuable resources of the company. It always needs employees’ productivity and capabilities  in order to run  the organization  in an efficient and effective. The  skills and abilities of the people to fulfill their tasks  is  very essential in order to maximize the   human  capital  management, as well as the human capital  development.  The everyday responsibilities of the entire work force must optimize the  skills and abilities of the human resources.  Apparently, both profit and non-profit organizations need  a powerful workforce in order to survive in a long period of time. They are both  managed in similar way.  The only difference is that non-profit organizations have volunteered human capital  who do not  demand for   regular compensation.  Even though, this is the case,  the  workforce still need to be managed the same way that employees in the profit organization are being managed.  The same thing that the volunteered employees must be recruited, so as to be  filtered. Likewise, human capital must still  be organized into  appropriate  manners. Employees  should be  delegated to their respective  responsibilities, as well as  be monitored, so as to be  rewarded based on their performances in the organization.
