Intellectual Capital consists of any useful knowledge that a company possesses. The objective of this research was to analyze the relationship between individual Intellectual Capital and collective Intellectual Capital in a chemical firm. The study aims to contribute to the perception of the relationship between individual and collective Intellectual Capital and its possible support to knowledge organizations. To do this, a case study was carried out through data triangulation. The main results show that, with respect to Human Capital, employees present important skills. At the same time, improvements are needed in terms of teamwork, contributions with new ideas and knowledge sharing. Regarding the Structural Capital, it was found that the employees are committed to the established objectives and goals. As for the Relational Capital, in general, vertical relationships are strengthened, but horizontal relationships need to be more intensively developed.Downloads
