The Human Resources Today Stay At Home Reading List

In April 2020, we reached out to our subscribers and asked for book, ebook, and article recommendations so that we could create a reading list that would be useful during your time at home. We hope this list will help you find something new to read and give you useful knowledge to help you grow in your professional life!

Books

Coaching Presence, Maria Lliffe-Wood.

“Working towards a coaching model of management and HR management, I’ve found this book an excellent resource for helping to build self-awareness in the people I work with - giving them the tools to make conscious and deliberate choices rather than be reactive.
