| Summary: | Organisational resources are the fundamental drivers of organisational performance.Human capital is considered one of the organisational resources and many studies had found its
positive impact on organisational performance. However, the association between human capital
and cooperatives performance is neglected to be studied by previous researchers. The distinct
characteristics of cooperatives compared to private or public organisations has paved the way
for this paper to investigate the relationship between the human capital of cooperatives board
members and cooperatives performance. 1,230 questionnaires were distributed to the randomly
selected cooperatives in Peninsular Malaysia and 154 questionnaires were received back from
the respondents. 135 questionnaires were usable for the analysis. From the correlation and
linear regression analyses, the study discovered that the relationship between the human capital
of cooperatives board members and cooperatives performance is positive and significant. These
results were supported by findings from previous studies which have been conducted in the non cooperatives sector. Hence, this result allows for the generalisation of the importance of human
capital on organisational performance across different types of organisations. |
