OUR SERVICES

Workforce strategy

At In Context, we are specialists in developing workforce strategy. With an evidence-based, data driven, and highly engaging design model, our focus first and foremost is on creating a clear link for business leaders between the business strategy, and the workforce required to deliver that strategy. While your P&C team may hold the strategy, it’s critical the Executive Team lead and own it alongside P&C in order to drive business success.

We have an established and proven development process that supports business leaders to identify current and future workforce needs, based on the achievement of business objectives.

Key aspects of the workforce strategy development process include:

  • Establishing clear themes & priorities for workforce delivery, linked directly to business strategy

  • Workshop facilitation to engage and hold Leadership teams accountable for the strategy (this is not just P&C’s work…)

  • Comprehensive environment assessment of where we are today, including business analytics, market conditions, risks, scenario planning and gap analysis

  • Identification of real or potential competitive workforce advantage

  • Clarity on the tangible actions to be taken to achieve your workforce strategy

  • Expertise and insight to current and future workforce trends, and the future of work

  • Workforce skills and capability needs
