Explanation of Human Resources Planning/ Development Questionnaire
Affirmative answers to all the questions in this section means the organization’s development and human resource needs are being met. The emphasis is on connecting development and workforce need projections with internal and external workforce skills.

Questions one through seven deal with influences on the planning process) changing workforce, markets and customers, products, services, technology/skills base and identification of external supply).

Questions eight through 17 deal with internal assessment and availability of these same considerations: organizational development activities in management development, training, career and succession planning to satisfy workforce demands within the organizations. If the internal labor supply is greater than the need, then the tougher issues of resource reallocation have to be addressed (questions 18 and 19).

Human resources planning is particularly important for emerging, rapid-growth and high tech USER businesses.
Mature businesses in need of new products, services, markets, acquisitions or divestitures must also plan to identify, attract or reallocate the talent necessary for revitalization and continued competition.
