The book provides an understanding of how service design and design thinking could address the needs of organisations in tackling processes of transformations which include changes in the way people behave, interact and grow. It addresses the demand of human resource management functions, which are primarily called to manage such transformations about what regards people, namely the employees. It suggests a framework that defines a course of action, based on design features, aimed at supporting organisations in facing organisational change.The book will be of interest of researchers in the field of service design, design thinking and HR management, consultants/practitioners working in those fields, and educators that would like to train learners in becoming human resource designers.
