Abstract
This study investigated the impact of intellectual capital (human, structural, relational) on institutional performance (efficiency, effectiveness) at the Community College of Aden. The research population comprised 50 administrative and academic staff, sampled randomly. Employing a descriptive-analytical approach, data was collected via a questionnaire and analyzed using SPSS. Key findings revealed a moderate availability level for all intellectual capital dimensions. Human capital was moderately rated, indicating perceived weaknesses in staff competence and skills. Structural capital was also moderate, reflecting some dissatisfaction with the organizational and information systems. Relational capital scored similarly, suggesting room for improving the college's external stakeholder relationships. Consequently, overall institutional performance was rated moderate, signifying a need for development.
The results demonstrated a strong, positive correlation between the combined dimensions of intellectual capital and institutional performance. Notably, the structural and relational dimensions had a more pronounced impact than the human dimension. This confirms that intellectual capital significantly influences institutional performance at the college.
Recommendations include enhancing human capital investment through continuous training programs for staff, particularly in technical and modern pedagogical skills; attracting qualified personnel; and fostering an innovative work environment to strengthen overall institutional performance.
