{"product_id":"the-hr-revolution-alan-watkins-9780367348137","title":"The HR (R)Evolution: Change the Workplace, Change the World","description":"\u003cp\u003eMany observers have suggested that capitalism is fast destroying our planet, concentrating power in a few big companies. Excessive short-termism, leveraged debt, digitisation, and disruption are the new normal. We stand at a critical juncture where the two paths ahead could lead to very different futures. One route could take us back to the harshest days of the early Industrial Revolution and the Great Depression. The other could lead to a world of abundance, equality, inclusivity, and prosperity for all. Which future awaits us will largely be determined by business, and HR (Human Resources) in particular. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBooks on HR tend to focus on HR practices and potential interventions, but they rarely look at the profession, how it evolved, and how and why those people practices were created. \u003cem\u003eThe\u003c\/em\u003e \u003ci\u003eHR (R)Evolution: Change the Workplace, Change the World\u003c\/i\u003e describes the \"Seven Great Waves\" of change and explains how each wave impacted business. It explains how some companies are stuck in the past and how HR can break the deadlock if it understands what the future holds. This book is meant for senior business leaders or anyone currently working in HR who are grappling with the paradoxes of business today. It's for leaders who recognise that people issues are the central challenge of our time. Whether we embrace the waves yet to come will determine whether we survive or regress, whether we flourish or flounder. The future is in our hands.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alan Watkins, Nick Dalton\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0367348136\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780367348137\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/16\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.40h x 6.30w x 0.70d","brand":"Alan Watkins","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43941111759103,"sku":"9780367348137","price":42.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_f3f4bd52-ef1e-4a08-9bf7-3cb31dc96dea.jpg?v=1681450977","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-hr-revolution-alan-watkins-9780367348137","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
