The workforce is changing fast…

More individuals are choosing to freelance and work flexibly, which means organisational teams are now made of both full-time and independent workers.

No longer can we afford to treat independent workers as merely ‘managed services’; In the war for talent, they are quickly becoming an indispensable part of a more blended workforce.

Traditional structures and ways of managing our human capital, regardless of its make up and designation, need an upgraded framework from which to build, manage and support a multidimensional workforce of the future, now.

Welcome to OpenHR™: The Human Capital Framework for the Blended Workforce

In this book, Jeremy Blain and Dr. Rochelle Haynes build the case for OpenHR and the framework to support it. The book is your how-to blueprint to build an OpenHR approach for your organisation, and provides:

A comprehensive ‘glossary of glossaries’ to bring you up to date with the latest terminology and definitions for the blended workforce
Case studies and examples of organisations reaping the benefits from an OpenHR approach
Interviews with business leaders, HR professionals and independent workers, accessing a broad range of perspectives, advice and insights
Roadmaps, models and templates to help you understand and implement OpenHR, step-by-step, in your organisation
Access to a supporting suite of services, through Jeremy and Rochelle, to help you accelerate success.
