“hidden treasure” of organizations.

Natural gas operations have a structure that need experienced and qualified human resources. Information required for overall safety of natural gas network and safe and sustainable emergency interventions, can be gained by developing employees technically with an effective training strategy.

4.RELATION OF ORGANIZATIONAL EFFICIENCY AND INTELLECTUAL CAPITAL
The relation in between the organizational performance and intellectual capital concepts is given
depending on the traditional and information society mechanisms. Intellectual capital emerges
not by the sum of human capital, structural capital and customer capital, but by their interaction
and by the synergy that they compose together. If these three capital types do not complement
each other and can not operate efficiently, it is not possible to refer intellectual capital.

5.INTELLECTUAL CAPITAL EXPERIENCE OF IGDAS
Providing natural gas service to Istanbul being the largest metropolis of Turkey has
been a compelling factor for IGDAS in respect of finding and improving methods
that will increase its organizational performance. In a period where limited sources
are possessed economically and in respect of labour force, large investments are
made and a rapid growth is realized.
And in this period a natural gas training centre had been established in order to
provide training to the personnel of other natural gas distribution companies as
well as its own employees. This training facility had been an effective institution on
the issues of composition of national profession standards, development of
training programs of institutions providing vocational education and bringing them
to the European Union Standards level.

8. CONCLUSIONS Organizations shall know that the route to success in international competition
environment can be achieved with quality and efficiency. And the way to
provide quality and efficiency passes through making investment to human.
Today the number of technical books published by IGDAS employees have reached
27. These publications are still used as referance source by the Turkish Natural
Gas Market.
IGDAS continues the distinction of being the school of Turkish Natural Gas Sector.
Today about 80% of private natural gas distribution companies are managed by
former IGDAS employees.
8. CONCLUSIONS Our adventure that had started with the obligation to perform what has not
been done continues in the form of competition of making the best. Growing in
numerical indicators such as financial capital, investment amount, sales amount
have not been sufficient for us. Our effort is to compose intellectual capital by
the effective usage of human source, which is requirement of our century.
At the point reached in the area of managing information, assessment and re‐
producing it, IGDAS has became an organization that both “Learns” and
“Teaches”.
