Building a Sustainable Workforce through Incremental Growth
Wednesday, November 20, 2024, 2:40 PM - 3:15 PM
Immersion
Many organisations have started building in-house Strategic Workforce Planning capabilities, but many are still navigating what this truly means and how to maximize its value. In the fast-paced, highly competitive retail sector, skill requirements evolve, business demands shift, and the workforce plays a crucial role in the customer journey. Strategic Workforce Planning holds immense potential to unlock competitive advantages and ensure we are prepared for the future.
This session will explore
- Starting small – how we laid the tracks for SWP as we went.
- Removing the stabilizers – how we valued the initial support of consultancy partners but maintained the ultimate goal of in-housing the process.
- Creating layers – how we are getting clearer on prioritising and sizing work, addressing multiple time horizons and broadening our reach as a small team.
- It’s all to play for – where we’re going next, just over a year into our journey.
Learning outcomes
- An honest account of Tesco's progress in SWP and learnings to date
- Reflections on how to make an in-house practice sustainable for the future - How Tesco have shifted the view of SWP from academic to practical.
