"intangibles". Accordingly much more attention is paid to factors that led to success v ersus f ailure where
human management is concerned. The role of leadership, talent, even celebrity is explored. How to
make the best use of human capital in the organization, more specifically, to retain good people, keep
them properly trained and placed in proper positions, and eventually target new hires to replace those
leaving the organization has always been a challenge work.
Network has been widely used in various aspects, especially in natural science. For example, biolog-
ical networks provide a mathematical analysis of connections found in ecological, evolutionary, and
physiological studies, such as neural networks
[5]
. In computer networks, networked computing devices
pass data to each other along data connections (network links). As more and more people realized the
power of the network, other complex networks, such as social network and business network forms the
nascent field of network science
[6]
. For instance, a social network is a social structure made up of a set
of social actors (such as individuals or organizations) and a set of the dyadic ties between these actors.
Since using network in social areas is newly developed, the theory is relatively scarce and many theories
are more focused on how to establish the structure of the network rather than the function-the practical
use. So it is a novel perspective to build a human capital network to study how the churn and recruit
employee will affect the efficiency of the organization. And as teams have increasingly become a way
of life in many organizations, using the new concept of team science to build a human network has little
been discussed.
What’s more, our life is filled with all kinds of networks, if we do more research on these networks, we
may find connection between them, especially a set of entities interact with each other in complicated pat-
terns that can encompass multiple types of relationships,and it is important to take such"multilayer"features
into account to try to improve our understanding of complex systems. So connect our Human Capital
network to other organizational network layers such as information flow, trust, influence, and friendship
is just our creative and challenging work.
1.3 Terminology and definitions
• Churn: the resulting turbulence when people leaving for other jobs or retiring are replaced.
• Churn rate(turnover rate):a measure of the number of individuals or items moving out of a col-
lective group over a specific period of time,and it can be defined as follows:
σ
CR
(%) =
2N
R
(N
S
+ N
E
)
× 100%
where, N
R
is the number of employees resigned during the month, N
S
is the number of employees
at the start of the month and N
E
is the total number of employees at the end of the month.
1.4 Our work
This paper tries to combine network model with team science to deal with management issues.In section
2, we build human capital network. Firstly, in part 2 we use ICM’s 370 positions as nodes, the affiliations
and cooperative relationships as edges to build a human capital static network model. Then in part 3 we
design three evolution driving algorithms respectively which make the network change with certain initial
conditions as well as the development of algorithm in time dimension. Thirdly, focused on the issues
that the supervisor need us to deal with, we revise our model’s initial parameters and algorithms. Finally
,in part 4 ,based on our simulation results, we solve the issues supervisor requires and analyze effects
under different conditions. In section 3, after studying the theory of multilayer network, we regard
friendships, competition and affiliation as three network layers to describe the connection compactness in
the whole team. We also find that multilayer network can reflect internal connections more precisely and
comprehensively than human capital network. In section 4, we do the sensitivity analysis for simulation
