Why You Should Care

Professional services can be particularly vulnerable to VUCA (volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity).

Over-utilization cannot fully address the challenges of VUCA.

Many businesses attempt to use poorly fit solutions for complex forecasting.

For businesses, the challenge is to onboard, retain and develop the talent to compete in a data-driven world. However, many organizations lack a clear view of the skills and headcount required to capitalize on new opportunities.

What does the future look like? Which skills are hot and trending? Is the workforce strategy aligned with supply and demand for talent? Without a mature approach to demand forecasting and capacity planning in the human resources function, established enterprises will be unable to answer these types of questions – putting them at a significant disadvantage to nimble market entrants.

In this eBook, Retain International consider the risks associated with ineffective
demand forecasting and capacity planning, identify the ways in which legacy tools can stand in the way of true insight, and show how businesses can prepare their workforces for the demands of the future.
