Hi Hari Priya,
People are the working associates of the organization, and the Process is what we are following as the rules of the organization. I don't know why you are comparing these two resources of the organization at the same time and under what circumstances you estimate their worth.
I am explaining based on what I have understood from your question. Associates of the organization will be more valuable, whereas most of the organizations are hardly following the process, and many of them are just treating the process as a burdensome task.
It would be better to provide more clarifications if you come with an example for your question.

Hi,
People are more important in the organization than the process. Just as a cell is the minutest and basic foundation of the body system, the same goes for people. They are the building blocks of an organization. A process is a certain set of procedures which is a variable factor that keeps on changing. The success of a process depends on the people who are running it. I would opt for a people-oriented approach rather than a process-oriented one.

People and process are like husband and wife in a family. Both are important but have different roles. Maybe a read of the discussion at 2.1 Importance of process | IEA Community Learning Platform - Training - IEA Training Manual - Module 4 will help in appreciating that.

Hi Haripriya,
You have chosen a very interesting topic. In this regard, I want to say that people are very important for an organization because only through the best efforts of people can any big organization do a good job. This is the process driven by people that allows an organization to run smoothly.

Hello Haripriya,
Both people and processes are important.
If you don't have the right talent, there is no point in huge investments and expecting business to take place. Because business is not just an investment of money - it's also an investment of ideas.
And there is no point in having a brilliant idea/process/infrastructure without the right talent.
It's better to use a case study for such a query so that you can pose questions and people can provide you with more input. Otherwise, it does not help us understand your context.
Define what you mean by "people" here - is it the customer? Is it talent in the organization? Define your process here - is it with the entire support of technical/environmental infrastructure - or something else. Be more detailed; there is no harm.
Thanks

Hello,
Both people and processes are like two eyes and are equally important. Without valuable people, processes cannot take place. People are the key factors that determine the processes in an organization. Without people, an organization does not exist; therefore, people should be prioritized before processes.

Hi Hari Priya,
People and processes are both important. However, if you have to choose between the two, then the process is more important than people. A company runs on processes and it needs people to implement the process. People are an important resource, no doubt, however, processes top the list of priority.
An efficient way of working is to create a backup for every process. There should never be dependency on one person. So processes can run even in the absence of the concerned person. Trust me, it yields very good results.

People and Process, both are important for the success of the organization. We can't compare them, as the process is executed by the people. We can say work should be process-centric rather than people-centric. It helps in the long run to achieve the organization's goals. :-)

Before, people are the resources/assets. Now we can say that they are the capital of the organization (not based on the accounting concept). Process tells us how to do things. People and processes are interrelated in terms of the smooth operation of a concern or performance.
