1. Superminds: The Surprising Power of People and Computers Thinking Together -by Dr. Thomas Malone

In this book, Dr. Malone talks about the convergence of human intellect and #ArtificialIntelligence (AI). He believes that everything that is successful is the result of a group of minds coming together – think governments and companies that have ruled the stock market. As a natural consequence then, AI can leverage human intelligence significantly by creating new methods of human interaction, changing its quality. Together, #AI and humans can group together to drive innovation and change.

2. Lead With Imagination -by Brian Paradis

If you’re wondering what the connection between leadership and imagination is, this book provides the answer. Thinking out of the box is no longer associated only with creative activities. Paradis convinces the reader that imagination is central to innovation and to leadership.

Leading a #workforce that is technologically savvy but is also grappling with new technologies requires imagination. It requires coloring outside the lines and transforming one’s approach to people management.

3. HR From the Outside In: Six Competencies for the Future of #HumanResources -by Dave Ulrich, Jon Younger, Wayne Brockbank, and Mike Ulrich

You will find this book on numerous lists of HR books to read, and with reason. As the workplace and workforce change, HR has evolved into a more strategic function. It is one department that needs to keep up with it all. Whether you come from an HR background or are new to the HR field, this is one book that should make it to your library.

Todd recommends HR From the Outside In as a must-read for the agile HR professional who believes the role of HR is to understand and build workforce capabilities to inform and influence strategic business decisions.

4. Artificial Intelligence for HR: Use AI to Support and Develop a Successful Workforce -by Ben Eubanks

We at HR Technologist are big proponents of the myriad applications of AI in HR. We believe that AI has the potential to simplify the HR function significantly. Not surprisingly, Ben Eubanks is of the same opinion, and his book is supported by data from the biggies – from IBM to Uber, Eubanks covers companies that have transformed the HR function by implementing AI. But that’s not all. His book also covers the ethical issues that arise with the application of #AIinHR.

Artificial Intelligence for HR by Eubanks lays a strong foundation for any HR professional looking to get started with this technology.

5. Difficult Conversations: How to Discuss What Matters Most -by Douglas Stone, Bruce Patton, Sheila Heen

Whether it is the workplace or at home, a difficult conversation can be, well, difficult. Nielson believes that in the workplace, difficult conversations can take up a wildly disproportionate amount of mental energy. So to help you, Difficult Conversations offers clear, relatable guidelines on how to approach those potentially stressful conversations that everyone – even in the HR profession – is guilty of avoiding.
