How Google Works

by David Meyer

Laszlo Bock, Google’s head of People Operations, explains its highly effective HR policies.

Former McKinsey consultant and GE executive Laszlo Bock joined Google in its infancy and now oversees its People Operations. He explains Google policies you could draw from to transform your organization from a company that controls employees to one that sets them free to innovate, make improvements and inspire one another. 

Bock asserts that Google’s philosophy stems from founders Sergey Brin and Larry Page’s early decision to make talent their first priority. To retain the people it hires, Google provides them with stock ownership, benefits, freedom, autonomy and inclusion.
