This is by far the best book I've read in years, everything Lucy talks about is directly related to my own thoughts and observations I've seen with my own eyes in all the places I've work. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is genuinely interested in helping understand and address one of the most important and influencial aspects of any business or organisation that will greatly help achieve what it has set out to do...the people working in it. I will definitely be looking into Lucy's further work following this book. * Amazon *
This book is fantastic! Really opens your mind to alternative routes and possibilities to processes and questions that those in the HR profession may feel are 'set in stone' and unchanging. This is the first book I've binge read in about 15/20 years! Just could not put it down! * Amazon *
Great read and I loved that at the end of each chapter Lucy talks about how to apply the concepts discussed. * Amazon *
