HR Disrupted: It's Time for Something Different

RM53.00 MYR
HR Disrupted: It's Time for Something Different
HR Disrupted: It's Time for Something Different

Rethinking HR for a more human workplace

This is a sharp, practical read for anyone tired of outdated people policies that feel more controlling than helpful. Lucy Adams makes HR feel less like bureaucracy and more like a real way to help people thrive at work. Readers who enjoy fresh thinking with immediately usable ideas will likely find it both validating and energising.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

HR has lost its way and needs to find a new direction. The central question this book sets out to answer is: if we are to survive and thrive in this new, volatile business world, how do we lead, manage, engage, and support our employees in a radically different way? HR departments and companies need to transform their approach. This entails not simply tinkering with the process or the mechanics, but taking a completely fresh look at the entire scenario. It’s the difference between spending hours deciding how many grades there should be in an employee grading system, and asking if grading people actually increases their ability to perform better in the first place. To achieve this change, Disruptive HR has three pillars: 1) Treating employees as adults, not children; 2) Treating employees as consumers or customers (not a one-size-fits-all approach); 3) Treating employees as human beings. Each: Employees as Adults, Consumers and Human Beings. (Each of us is different, each of us deserves better.) So what happens when you read this book? First, there’s the lightbulb moment: 'I do that and I hadn't even realised it'. Then you'll see what this means for you and your organisation, with practical tools, ideas and techniques so you can start making changes immediately. And finally, the hard bit: this book will help you introduce this new thinking to others in your business.
