Human resources planning starts by conducting an analysis of staffing needs throughout the organization. This could mean either assessing the current staffing requirements of projecting future requirements if changes are expected. In either situation there are several questions that need to be answered and fully understood prior to the analysis.
- What is the organization’s strategic vision?
- What are the short-term and long-term goals?
- Are there any major changes in the market that will impact the organization’s future?
- What changes in staffing requirements, if any, are needed to support the strategic vision of the organization?
- If changes are needed within the organization, what type of resistance can be expected to the changes?
Once these questions are answered, assessing the staffing requirements can be completed.
