In Hermie the HR Hermit Crab: Out of the Loop, Into the Fire, or HR Hung Out to Dry, our well-meaning crustacean discovers the absurdity of leaders excluding him from strategic discussions while they ask him to fix the mess that follows. Through a carefully cultivated set of cartoons, Hermie shines a light on a serious truth: organizations cannot thrive without Human Resources at the strategy table.
This book blends workplace satire with evidence-based lessons, reminding leaders that culture, trust, and people strategy don't exist as "extras;" they form the foundation of lasting success. Whether you work as an HR professional, a leader, or just someone who has survived a few too many staff meetings, Hermie's stories will make you laugh, think, and maybe even change the way you see your workplace.
