Finally, Hellström and Dank guide us through nurturing an ever-evolving, lightning quick business that can keep up with tech giants, global shifts, and the chain of firsts required to get us to Mars and beyond, address climate change, be the next Google, and establish equitable psychological safety in an exhilarating, uplifting, profitable place to work."
“This is the handbook we wished we had when we started to apply Agile HR within our work. The book brings to life all the learning we’ve gained from our personal experiences over the last decade, as well as the recommendations and insights from the leaders and teams we’ve collaborated with across the globe. We can’t wait for you to put the handbook into practice and join our mission in transforming the HR profession.”
