I read the negative reviews for this audio book before purchasing. Those reviews are people working in HR (or Personnel as Steve referred to) driven by policy, black or white, reactive administrators. Not to be harsh, but those resistant to change would not like this book based on that.

Steve Browne talks about bringing the human aspect back in HR. It’s extremely refreshing to get his take on how HR has developed and is more of a partner to the business. He talks about how employees should be valued, listened to as a proactive nurturing approach to HR. I’ve been in HR for 7 years, focusing on Talent Acquisition mainly and I loved his softened approach.

Great book for those looking ahead in HR, not stuck in the past

Lots of nuts and bolts tips and anecdotes designed for HR professionals. I’m a business owner so this wasn’t exactly written for me but it was quite enjoyable and the author was very likable. Five star listen.

Enjoyable book about the HR profession

This was the book I needed to recharge my mindset within HR. We can feel alone sometimes and often question why we do what we do and this book is exactly the reasons.

The narrator sounded stuffy the entire book which was distracting personally. There were some things that would have crossed over better with reading the physical book.

Great story, stuffy narrator
