About this title

Synopsis

Shortages and downtime are deadly for businesses. So what strategies are other organizations using to solve their workplace challenges?

Positioned captures the best workforce planning practices from leading organizations such as Boeing, HP, the US Intelligence Community, and others in the private and public sectors to help businesses address the constant challenge of having the right people available when needed in order to maximize creativity, efficiency, and productivity.

World-renowned thought leaders including Dave Ulrich, John Boudreau, James Walker, Jac Fitz-enz, Peter Howes, Dan Hilbert, and Naomi Stanford weigh in on the future of:

• strategic staffing, 
• virtual workplaces, 
• disruptive technologies, 
• globalization, 
• and what practices will and will not help organizations succeed.

By examining the evolution of workforce analytics and the roles of human resources professionals, and by incorporating input on best practices from expert people strategists, Positioned provides invaluable insight about how your organization can adjust to turnover seamlessly and do so in a way that produces even better results.
