FAQs

To create a staffing plan, begin by considering the goals of your department, your resources, and influences, including talent availability and market strength. While every staffing planning process is different, most staff plans will prompt you to:

- Identify your business objectives

- Gather job descriptions of current team members

- Anticipate changes to your current staffing (including promotions, paid leave, retirement)

- Determine which roles you need to fill

- Update staff plans regularly to reflect internal and external changes

With plenty of data and all hands on deck, you should be able to start assembling a plan that reflects the realities of your situation and meets the needs of your org and team.

You can start your staffing plan off right by downloading your free customizable FigJam template. Allow our strategic staffing plan template to streamline every aspect of team management—from organizing resources to staying on track.

Your staff plan covers many of all of the human-resources-related needs of your organization, whether that’s identifying the roles and responsibilities of current staff members or outlining a future vision of team growth.

Staffing plans can also include project deadlines, upcoming changes in availability, and company-wide goals—information that helps team managers assess how many resources and personnel will be needed to achieve desired results.

Every staffing plan example begins with the team coming together to establish goals. Sample staffing plan goals might be anything from a product launch to a company expansion. No matter what your objectives may be, they will necessarily guide your staffing plans, so take care to establish them at the top and be sure to share them with your entire team.
