I. What is it?

Human resource planning involves


getting the right number of qualified
people into the right jobs at the right
time.
Developmental Overview (2)
According to Taylor (2002)
Manpower Planning and HRP are concerned
with
 ‘looking ahead’, using systematic
techniques, i.e. auditing skills to be able to
meet org. requirements of the future.
 Having ‘the right people, with the
right skills, in the right places at the
right time.
Why Look ahead and Forecast?
Why Look ahead and Forecast?
 To deal with changes
– External Environmental Situations
 Expansion
 Competition
 Globalisation
 Technological
 Political
 Social
 Economical
 Ecological
 Legal
 Once this $10.7 billion deal is sealed,
India’s largest telecom firm by revenue
and number of customers, will become the
seventh largest telecom company in the
world, and fifth in the cellular mobile
segment.
 As analysts have said, one of the main
challenges for the Bharti Airtel in Africa after the
deal is
 - to evolve a new strategy to become a
dominant player there. After all, Zain has been
on the back-foot in key markets like Nigeria and
Kenya, and the company needs to tackle its
foreign exchange exposure efficiently as it has to
buy equipment in dollars whereas revenue will
come from local currencies.
 Yes, there are challenges but for Bharti Airtel and its
promoters including chairman Sunil Bharti Mittal, it’s
more like chasing a global dream. A few years ago, Mr
Mittal wanted to make a foray into infrastructure
business, and then Bharti Enterprises and Singapore’s
Changi Airport formed a consortium to bid for the
development and management of airports in Delhi and
Mumbai. But that was before two relatively low-profile
companies from South, GMR and GVK, put an extra
effort to make a mark in India’s political and financial
capitals respectively. In this round, Mr Mittal may not
like any dropped call.
Success mantra’s

productivity
C. the “demographic imperative”
demands more such planning
