About this listen

Every bold leader has hit the HR wall: you’re racing to transform your business, only to be stopped by compliance checklists and “policy” objections. If that frustration sounds familiar, this book is your way forward. In this book you’ll discover a counterintuitive strategy to “ignore” HR – not by dodging it, but by turning your HR team into an invisible ally.

Drawing on behavioral psychology and real executive case studies, the author reveals proven tactics to quietly get HR on your side so you never lose momentum on a big project. You’ll learn how to involve HR at just the right moments to neutralize their concerns before they even become roadblocks, how to speak “HR’s language” to secure rapid buy-in, and how to create a culture where HR actively smooths the path for innovation.

By leveraging the human psyche (including what makes HR professionals tick), you’ll effectively remove bureaucratic friction from your leadership journey. No more surprise eleventh-hour stop signs. How to Ignore HR gives you a blueprint to lead fearlessly and execute your vision faster – with HR’s help and far less headache. It’s time to transform the department of “no” into your secret weapon for getting big things done.
