In THREE, Ian has distilled his insight and wisdom into a game-changing, highly practical, and forward-thinking tool that raises the bar on HR capability by addressing the what, who, when, where, why, and how of great HR leadership.”
“Ian has always had the unique ability to take HR from the theoretical to the practical and make it ‘real'. In today's business environment, the organizations that differentiate talent and human capital management for competitive advantage and value creation will be the ones that break out of the pack, and this book offers a ‘real world' approach to achieve just that.”
“Increasingly, business success hinges on effective leadership and management of human capital. Ziskin's passion for the HR profession is captured in THREE as he generously shares insights based on his own experiences and thoughtfully takes us through the critical components of being a successful business leader. This book provides great practical guidance for both current and future leaders.”
“In this wonderful book for rising HR executives, Ian combines personal experiences as a leader and consultant with top organizations to help rising high performers reach their potential. This truly unique book goes beyond, and offers a range of tools and frameworks that can aid one's journey.”
“Ian is a guiding light in the world of HR, and THREE is a fantastic integration of the major trends in business and how human capital (or people) management must respond to drive business value. THREE is a must read for anyone who's interested in the creation and management of high-performance organizations.”
“THREE is a primer in the world of the human resources executive, written by one who has BEEN THERE and DONE IT. Ian Ziskin knows his subject matter thoroughly, as he has lived it. We are privileged that he has taken the time to share it.”
“As a former CHRO and as a parent to two emerging HR leaders, I know what book I will be recommending they read. Ian has done us all a great service by providing an engaging vehicle for current and prospective HR leaders to contemplate their personal development and to learn from proven leaders in the HR profession.”
“One of the most important jobs we have as CHROs is to develop the next generation of HR leaders who will take the function to a higher level…Ian's book will help all of us to make that happen.”
“THREE provides sound, practical and actionable ideas, as well as practices and tools for any aspiring (or current) CHRO. Ian has brought his 30 plus years of HR leadership to bear in providing a resource to the profession that is infinitely readable and more importantly do-able.”
“The more the business strategy and the people strategy are integrated…the bigger the wins. Ian has created a very practical guide to help HR leaders get laser focused on the right questions to drive to the right solutions and outcomes for the business. Great HR leaders are the ultimate portfolio managers, not just managing processes, tools and frameworks, but ruthlessly prioritizing where to invest in the right people to accelerate value for the firm.”
“Ian has done a masterful job of distilling the art and science of HR into a practical and compelling guide. A must read for any aspiring HR leader.”
“At heart, great HR leaders are great business leaders. THREE delivers a dynamic mix of thought-provoking insights and practical tools for HR professionals to continue their own growth and help the function achieve its full potential. Ziskin does an amazing job of challenging HR leaders to lift up their heads, look around, and develop themselves in a way that connects with both the function and the business overall.”
“THREE offers a thorough, balanced and actionable framework for CHROs and senior HR executives seeking to define and sustain HR functional excellence within their organization. Ziskin has advanced the HR profession considerably with an operative model firmly grounded in a critical analysis of the function, augmented by years of insights across a wide range of industries and organizational settings.”
“Ian Ziskin has been able to crystalize over three decades of impressive HR experience into a compelling, thought provoking, and ‘must read' book for everyone who seeks to be a great leader in HR and a great leader overall. Most compelling for me is Ian's vision of exemplary HR leaders as “Orchestra Maestros” with the responsibility and opportunity to ‘lead, follow, or get out of the way – to reach out beyond the boundaries and traditional disciplines of HR to bring together expertise and capabilities from multiple functions.' Ian's vision for excellence, combined with practical advice, should be on everyone's reading list!”
“THREE is packed with future vision as well as practical ideas. Learn how great leaders are like orchestra conductors managing human capital black holes and white spaces. Ian provides an insight into future trends that will impact us all, but he gives us the opportunity to influence our future.”
