Just to be a little more clear and to avoid the presumption that we're
not making some progress already, I have something like this in mind:
Human Resources Management Ontology
http://mayor2.dia.fi.upm.es/oeg-upm/index.php/en/ontologies/99-hrmontology
But my suspicion is that such an ontology will still be lacking in a
large number of the variables we consider when thinking about an
individual's health, well-being, happiness, usefulness, and value/merit
... most notably it's missing all the ecological, biological, and
medical ontologies. (Don't _you_ think about ticks and the epidemiology
of lyme disease when you consider a new job offer?)
And, of course, even though the ontolog[y|ies] might be huge, it's still
just a start. We'd need to use such a scheme to build and falsify
models of how any given individual or company (vector) might wander in
the spanned space. Are there unreachable pockets? Unconnnected
pockets? Etc.
