HR and business leaders continue to require better insight into their workforce, and an improved ability to react quickly and effectively to business changes. Increasingly, organizations are seeking more effective ways of making sense of their workforce data to gain insight into what drives productivity and competitive advantage. Leading organizations have turned their focus to how best to apply that information to deliver improved business results through comprehensive workforce plans. Workforce planning is a powerful solution in helping organizations turn data into actionable plans to optimize the workforce and business; however, there are many challenges to overcome. Workforce planning is not a new idea but technology and best practice processes to achieve success are rapidly evolving.
Workforce planning is a fundamental exercise in proactive business management that keeps organizations aligned with their markets, and ensures organizational ability to execute on the business strategy. In most organizations, workforce planning is a manual process that is tracked in spreadsheets and only occurs annually. Even with regular reviews to ensure the plan is tracking accurately to the business, collaborating and reconciling plans is labor intensive and error prone. The consequence is that the value of workforce planning is diminished due to the relative infrequency of its iteration, the inefficiency of the process, the inaccuracy of the estimates produced, and the difficulty in drawing actionable conclusions. For the business this means missed opportunity and a workforce plan that is out of line with the business priorities.
This one-hour complimentary webinar will review several critical challenges in undertaking an enterprise workforce planning process and the practical problems that arise--common roadblocks that ultimately reduce the effectiveness of the desired results. This informative webinar will deliver a common sense approach to building or enhancing workforce planning programs to deliver tangible business outcomes such as improving productivity, profitability and performance. Webinar participants will discover common pitfalls associated with workforce planning initiatives, understand the implications of falling into these predicaments, and acquire constructive insights into how these situations can be mitigated or avoided. More importantly, this webinar will discuss where workforce planning should be focused in order to maximize value from the time invested, and how to measure a return from the process.
