Reviews
"An excellent overview of why communications is such a vital part of HR programmes. This is such a neglected area at times but an increasingly vital one in the war for attracting and retaining talent. Corey uses practical examples and tips to bring the issues to life and demonstrate best-practice. She also helps to focus on the measurement of the communications you use to ensure you are not only effective but are achieving ROI." * Dr Andy Brown, CEO, Engage *
"Few people can have more experience in communicating HR/reward programmes effectively than Debra, and her book reveals all of that experience and knowledge. Few of us pay enough attention to communicating and involving staff and stakeholders, and that underpins the poor implementation of most HR/reward programmes. This book will help you deliver your HR/reward policies into practice." * Duncan Brown, Head of HR Consultancy, Institute for Employment Studies *
"Practical, informative and full of warmth and fun. Debra's disarmingly honest accounts of her own experiences draw you in and connect you to the learning points." * Glenn Elliott, Founder and CEO, Reward Gateway *
"Whatever part of HR change you look at, the common factor is the need for planned, well thought-out and appropriate communication. This engaging book is a comprehensive guide to how to achieve this." * Michael Rose, Reward Strategy Consultant, Rewards Consulting Ltd *
