Human capital management is a company’s system for recruiting, training, organizing, paying and retaining its workforce—like running a sports team or orchestra to ensure the right people with the right skills are in the right roles. Investors care because how well a firm manages its people affects productivity, costs, staff turnover and the company’s ability to execute strategy, which in turn influences future profits, cash flow and valuation.

Return on investment (ROI) measures how much money an investor makes or loses relative to the amount they put in, expressed as a percentage. It helps compare the efficiency of different investments—like checking which of several gardens produced the most fruit for the seeds planted—so investors can decide which opportunities deliver the best payoff for the risk and capital they commit.
