After 30 years national/international consulting work, I am convinced that Holistic Workforce Planning embodies the ultimate contribution HR Departments can make to key stakeholders, executives and employees alike within their given organisations.
Holistic Workforce Planning is, however, a discipline with which many HR professionals are not overly familiar. Some think it is about staff recruitment, some think it is about staff development, while others think it is about staff replacement. Many also think it involves complicated data and algorithms to calculate future staffing levels.
From my experience, all of these assumptions are correct to some extent, but there remains scope for further clarity and understanding. In simple terms, Holistic Workforce Planning is about shaping, resourcing, engaging, and sustaining the future workforce in alignment with business trends and direction, complemented by ongoing changes in the global workforce landscape.
For those HR Departments, teams or professionals seeking to escape the drudgery of staff governance and compliance, I am confident that the essential systems and processes required are within HR's capability & scope, whether delivered internally or via an external vendor.
