In the knowledge economy, there is no more important resource than talent so understanding how best to manage talent should be the highest priority of any successful business. I highly recommend Sharon Armstrong and Barbara Mitchell’s Updated The Essential HR Handbook to not only HR professionals, but also to today’s C-level executives as they seek to understand how to recruit, retain and upskill their workforce. Armstrong and Mitchell’s concise and well-researched material is easily digested and applied. I have valued their earlier edition, and have found their updates to the Handbook to be extremely pertinent and enormously helpful. Do yourself a favor and keep this book close as I do. You will find yourself reaching for it often.
