Defining the Journey from Operational to Strategic Workforce Planning
Ausra Gabrenaite

Everyone’s journey is unique – there is no ‘one size fits all’ when it comes to strategic workforce planning. As much as it’s an organisation’s journey, it may be also your professional one, and there is nothing more exciting than figuring it all out! In this session, Ausra will share how SWP has been – and still is – evolving within Nissan, and then lead an open discussion with attendees about successes and objectives.

SWP may be a confusing topic to address and implement in any organisation. How it should be approached and what does it even mean? The answer will be very different for different organisation, unlike more established HR disciplines such as Talent Management or Comp & Ben.

Recognising what is needed, and how you can play a part, is a journey self-discovery, and one person’s answers may vary significantly from another’s. And that’s OK. This session is hopefully going to give more confidence and comfort to those who are going through that self-discovery journey at the moment.

This session will explore:

  • SWP – what is it, really?
  • What SWP is for Nissan today
  • What SWP might become for Nissan tomorrow
  • Where are YOU in your journey?

Learning outcomes:

  • Recognise where you are in your journey to bringing your workforce planning to a strategic level
  • Benchmark your journey status with those of other participants
  • Get inspired and find confidence in pushing ahead.
