Operational Impact
The company now uses a monthly planning process to capture workforce demand for different groups within the organization. Visier Workforce Planning enables multiple people to collaborate on the same plan to create a more accurate picture of demand. Department leaders can review and refine projections that Visier makes based on historical data and then assign other leaders who report to them to refine the plan further. | |
During the month, the planning director checks in with leaders to ensure they can meet the plan deadline and runs a meeting on staffing governance. He pulls in other stakeholders as needed, encouraging everyone to share input and provide insight. If hiring isn’t progressing as fast as necessary, he talks to Recruiting about how to stay on plan. If leaders recommend a plan that’s over budget, he discusses options with stakeholders from Finance. | |
Because of the improvements to workforce planning and analytics, it’s easy for leaders at the company to share their headcount plans with other areas of the business so they can plan their own work. For instance, by reviewing up-to-date hiring targets, the Learning & Development team can plan the right number and type of onboarding and training sessions. | |
