Setting directions for the interrelationship between assets that contains employees’ competencies, technology, corporate culture, and performance drivers in the growth perspective is the responsibility of a leader. Each of these assets cannot be seen separated from one another. Employee competencies, for instance, depending on the technology available in the organization, the same rarely on skills, expertise, or corporate culture. The efficient leader of organizational assets is impossible without understanding the interrelationships and interdependencies of such interrelationship assets. Therefore workload and performance evaluation set by a leader and evaluated by an assessor who understands the mapping of dependencies used for value creation is needed to validate business inputs and outputs.

Below points outline how a leader develop a value creation culture through processes relationships designing a strategy map from the organizational objectives, mission, and vision and the assets that are interdependent on value drivers are identified. The performance dimensions, with its relative importance. the interactions between the different assets as well as their overall links to performance will be visualized expressing the level of importance, and how they interact to deliver value, in this case, visualize the workload. Stress at work is a relatively new phenomenon in a concern of the management to drastic changes at rapid speed in the market retained by their workforce.
