Description
As individual workers become more entrepreneurial—managing their own careers, jumping from job to job, and assembling their own distinctive professional narratives—the burden is now on managers to keep an organisation running. The Alliance addresses this very real challenge both for companies and their people.
Written by an impressive trio of thinkers and doers—LinkedIn cofounder Reid Hoffman, author and entrepreneur Ben Casnocha, and executive and investor Chris Yeh—the book offers the first concrete advice on generating value both for employees and companies in today's networked world.
Building on their 2013 article in Harvard Business Review ("Tours of Duty: The New Employer-Employee Compact," June 2013), the authors propose a new framework that unearths opportunity for all parties involved in the pact, reflecting an optimistic view of future employee-employer relations.
Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?
