Transforming HR Reviews

Reddington, Williamson and Withers' practical guide to transforming HR thus amounts to a kind of managerial Viagra to help perk up the profession's resolve to face up to change. John Philpott, Chief economist, CIPD

Written in a concise and pragmatic manner, Transforming HR is an essential tool in demystifying the business of Change. Moreover it provides a demonstrable means of aligning and shaping HR to key business drivers...I highly recommend it.
Rami Cassis, Managing Director, Business Process Outsourcing, Atos Consulting

A very valuable book for those who are seeking to transform their HR function...many practical tools, techniques and workshop guidelines as well as perspectives from various practitioners who have undertaken this type of change.
Jan Bujko, Training & Development specialist working in the public sector, with previous experience at John Lewis Partnership, Kuoni Travel and the National Health Service

Provides a down to earth guide to making sense ofit all, stressing throughout the need to ensure that clients and key stakeholders are supportive of all that needs to be done. A book to keep close at hand!
Martin Moore, Head of Human Resources, The British Museum

Written in an accessible and practical style, the authors draw upon many relevant experiences of where HR has been transformed and provide a clear blueprint for action with a wealth of useful frameworks and tools. This is most definitely a 'how to' book and, as such, is a 'must have' for all HR professionals!
Jerry Arnott, Managing Director, Origin Consulting (previously senior HR practitioner at National Grid, Cable & Wireless and LloydsTSB)

This book will help HR practitioners and consultants challenged to 'transform HR' to move from fuzzy concept to practical reality. Theory is presented as common sense supported by clear guidance on practical implementation processes.
Terry Haskins, Managing Director, Spirit Level (previously senior HR practitioner at Shell and Cable & Wireless)
