So, what is Workforce Planning?
Workforce Planning is part of Workforce Management. With Workforce Planning, you can anticipate on tomorrow’s recruitment demands. Organizations in a growing market need to plan ahead to grow and innovate. If the size of your organization doubles in the next five year, you’re going to need a lot of new employees. A good Workforce Planning prepares you for growth in the upcoming years. In addition to this, Workforce Planning together with Succession Planning helps your organization to identify future leaders.
