Abstract [en]

During the past decades, important steps have been taken to develop management and management control models that can be used relative to intangible resources such as health and competence. In this chapter we will account for ideas, experiences and the possible future for some of these models. We will draw upon experiences from Sweden. One of the reasons for doing so is that Sweden has been the subject of numerous initiatives and efforts regarding management and management control of different intangible resources. We have selected models that address health or human resources in a working environment context. The pedagogical idea underlying our selection is to illuminate problems and possibilities regarding management control and organisational change targeting health as an intangible resource.  After a brief resume concerning research on the correlation between health and profitability, we pass on to discuss experiences and possibilities of the different models. The models discussed are health in the balance sheet, health in the profit and loss account, human resource costing and accounting, recent management control methods and health statements. After presenting a case we conclude with a summary of different dilemmas.
