Recenzii
"This book cuts through the complexity of HR leadership and clearly shows what it takes to move from HR individual contributor to strategic senior leader. Nicola’s ideas are simple, logical, and immediately useful, the kind that make you wonder why no one explained this sooner. With strong industry insight and practical tools you will revisit throughout your career, this book will put ambitious HR professionals ahead of their peers."
Kristina Kellman, People Director at Masabi, ex Facebook
"What an inspiring and thought provoking read! Nicola demonstrates her lived experience of being a strategic people leader in start-ups and scale ups, sharing invaluable guidance and insights. As an A-List Alumni, I can personally vouch for Nicola's approach as she has been a role model to me on my own Head of People journey. This book should be on the 'must read' list of any aspiring or current senior people leader (and CEO's as well!)"
Helen Monk, Head of People at Crunch
