As the executive who built Google's People Operations function, Bock distils a decade of data-driven experimentation into a practical playbook for hiring, motivating, and retaining exceptional talent. This brand-new paperback edition is ideal for managers, HR professionals, entrepreneurs, and students of organisational behaviour who want proven, research-backed strategies for building healthier, higher-performing workplaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Book\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nWork Rules! blends candid storytelling with rigorous research to explain how Google became one of the world's most admired employers. Laszlo Bock led the team responsible for attracting, developing, and retaining tens of thousands of \"Googlers,\" and here he shares the specific policies, experiments, and philosophies that shaped the company's culture. He challenges conventional workplace wisdom — from how interviews are conducted to how performance reviews are structured — and shows, with data to back it up, why giving employees more freedom, transparency, and trust actually improves results. Bock covers subjects ranging from recruitment and compensation to feedback, learning, and wellbeing, offering readers a toolkit that can be scaled from small teams to entire organisations. Whether the goal is building a start-up culture from scratch or reforming an established company, the book provides a clear, evidence-based framework rather than vague inspirational advice. Its accessible tone and real-world case studies have made it a staple recommendation among leadership thinkers and business schools alike, and it remains one of the defining texts on the modern workplace nearly a decade after publication.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWritten by the executive who led Google's People Operations for over a decade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCombines rigorous data and research with practical, actionable advice\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCovers hiring, feedback, compensation, learning, and workplace culture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestseller\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal for managers, HR teams, founders, and business students\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDurable paperback format, easy to annotate and reference\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nLaszlo Bock served as Senior Vice President of People Operations at Google, where he built and led the team behind the company's hiring, development, and culture practices for over a decade.
