New Release: A Roadmap for HR Professionals

On November 14, 2025, Yosuke Yoshida, the head of the HR Library and representative of Trustyyle, released his new book entitled 'How HR Professionals Move: What Innovative HR Thinks to Drive Business Growth.'

This book has created a buzz in the HR community by topping Amazon's bestseller list in the categories of HR & Labor Management, as well as General Administration well before its official release date. With its focus on practical tips and a structured approach, it aims to assist HR professionals in navigating their roles more effectively.

Breaking Down Barriers: The Challenge Facing HR

Many HR professionals find themselves feeling unrecognized despite their hard work. Responsibilities such as recruitment, staff development, labor management, and organizational development are critical; however, they often encounter skepticism regarding their impact on the company.

Particularly in environments where they are the sole HR representative without a mentor or role model, doubts like 'How should I progress in my career as an HR professional?' frequently arise. This book is designed to address these concerns. By engaging in dialogues with over a thousand HR practitioners, Yoshida provides a compendium of strategies for creating meaningful contributions as a professional in the field.

A Structured Roadmap for Professional Growth

The book lays out a clear framework through which HR professionals can develop their careers. It focuses on
1. Information Gathering: What kind of data do professional HR practitioners gather before taking action?
2. Decision-Making Process: Based on that information, how do they assess and deliberate?
3. Action Execution: What specific steps should they take to effectively involve their team and management?

Each topic is unpacked through real-life examples, equipping inexperienced HR newcomers and those facing uncertainties with a reliable roadmap for their career.

The First Step Towards Empowering HR Professionals in All Organizations

The HR Library operates under the motto, 'Creating the Future Together with Colleagues.' This book represents a significant initial step toward their vision of having a professional HR presence in every organization. The goal is not merely to support individual HR practitioners but to bolster the overall growth potential of their organizations through enhanced HR capabilities.

As part of the book's launch, a series of events are planned, offering opportunities for knowledge exchange:

• - November 15, 2025: Joint event titled Finding Hidden Strengths.
• - November 22, 2025: Collaborative event focusing on practical HR strategies.

Yoshida, as both the author and the head of the HR Library, is committed to traveling nationwide to engage in discussions about the future of HR practices. The initiative aims to create dialogue opportunities between the HR Library and local communities under the overarching goal of promoting proficient HR professionals.
