Is Your Organization Ready for Strategic Workforce Planning?
Original Air Date: 4/7/2020
For years, HCI has investigated how organizations successfully implement strategic workforce planning. A strategic workforce plan (SWP) aligns people and mission-critical roles with future goals and objectives. In this webcast, we’ll discuss two critical components of this process:
- Securing executive support for your initiative; and,
- Building the cross-functional team and collaboration you’ll need for execution and success.
These two topics are of critical importance to develop and present long-term forecasts and plans of the human capital needs of your organization. You need the support and leadership of a sponsor for credibility and resources and you need a team, often composed of both internal and external members, that can execute the plan. Learn what has worked from those who have already traveled down the SWP road.
Join Bruce Walton, an HCI Senior Faculty member, for this webcast. Bruce has taught HCI's SWP certification program for over ten years and has consulted with a wide range of organizations on their SWP implementation approaches. He will share many case-study examples, best practices and a number of tools you can use as you develop the SWP approach for your organization.
You will learn how to:
- Identify strategies and tools to build executive sponsorship for your SWP initiative.
- Understand your readiness for building executive sponsorship and identifying some next steps.
- Determine the right organizational structure for your SWP project.
- Assess your readiness to build a Strategic Workforce Planning cross-functional team in your organization.
