Gregg Gordon’s new book, Your Last Differentiator: Human Capital, celebrates the workforce as any organisation’s biggest differentiator. Acquiring capital and technology is no longer a barrier to entry in any market, and the workforce’s application of capital and technology is what provides innovation and competitive differentiation.
