This workshop is suitable for all HR practitioners who need to work with resource planning, especially HR Business Partners and planning specialists.

Workforce Planning is defined as the forward planning of resourcing needs, both in terms of numbers and capabilities. It is often captured in the goal of "the right people, in the right place, at the right time, with the right skills.... and the right contract".

In this workshop we will cover the following:

• the business case for effective workforce planning
• the framework of guiding policies on resourcing
• the scope of planning - how far ahead? how frequent? how broad in coverage?
• scenario planning
• creating a set of questions regarding external demands (such as technology, demographics etc)
• creating a series of questions about internal demands (such as company strategy, organisational change, productivity changes etc)
• defining roles and job families
• modelling workforce flows
• internal supply sources - potential, career and succession planning – limitations.

The workshop will be illustrated by practical exercises and case studies. Participants will be able to take away a workbook to apply to their own organisations.

Andrew's book, "The Human Value of the Enterprise" is influential. Dave Ulrich, co-author of The HR Scorecard, said of the book, "The ‘Human capital Monitor' architecture encompasses research to date and offers a pragmatic way to assess people performance in a firm. I learned a lot from reading the book and will refer to it frequently as a disciplined roadmap for deriving human capital value."

He has also written two extensive Guideline publications - "The Measurement of Human Capital" for the ICAEW, and "Return on investment in HR" for Personnel Today.
