High-Impact HR has long felt elusive. Difficult to define, challenging to measure and harder still to realize in practice. Not anymore.
This book offers a compelling, practitioner-led guide to creating real value through clarity, collaboration and courageous leadership, enabling the People Profession to act with confidence, deliver meaningful impact and stay deeply human at its heart.
- High-Impact HR provides organizations with the tools and the mindset to deliver real transformation, and business impact that lasts.
