Read some of the best HR Most Influential profiles in our special ebook

HR magazine celebrated 10 years of the HR Most Influential ranking in 2015 – its definitive annual lists of the HR practitioners and thinkers who have had the greatest influence in the field of people strategy

HR magazine’s HR Most Influential ranking – the definitive annual lists of the HR practitioners and thinkers who have had the greatest influence in the field of people strategy – marked its 10th anniversary with the creation of a free ebook containing profiles of some of the Most Influential HR directors we have been lucky enough to interview since HR Most Influential was launched.

These interviews give an inside view on some of the major issues business has faced during the past 10 years, from the collapse of RBS to the oil price crash.

Highlights include Imelda Walsh, then group HR director of Sainsbury’s, discussing the rebranding of flexible working, and Dean Royles, former chief executive at NHS Employers, asking how HR can communicate with staff and patients.

Dave Ulrich, author and professor of business at the Ross School of Business, offers his own insight into why HR should look outside the business, not remain cocooned within it.
