Synopsis

Aimed at ambitious, mid-level Human Resources and OD people, this book is full of practical tips and tricks to move from being a good HR person, to being great. Ted gives insights into the various ways that you can influence others, get change accepted, and make things happen in your organisation. Everything is tried and tested, and better still, Ted offers extra support, beyond the book, to anyone who contacts him through LinkedIn, where he runs a regular Dear Ted blog, based on questions posed by the many people he mentors. This book is written in an A to Z style, so that you can dip in and out, or go straight to an issue that you're thinking through, as well as the more traditional complete read through, which you won't regret. Everyone who has read it so far reported back that they have learned many practical things from Human Resources A to Z, and some even enjoyed Ted's writing style! 25% of Ted's royalties will go to Macmillan Cancer Support.
