What Is Next for Companies with Low Human Efficiency: The Quantitative Talent Planning Model

Abstract

Quantitative workforce management has become more popular since the pandemic as companies are eager to find methods to accurately locate the sources of their reducing human efficiency and ROIs of human capital. This paper aims to shed light on the applicable methods of quantitative talent planning to adjust the workforce costs and staff ratios between different departments of a company. The present study analyzed the average workforce costs and cost benefit ratios data from electronics production & design companies. The regression method was also applied to illustrate these two factors' trends and relationships. The paper's main findings are the Equal Workforce Efficiency Curve and the four-zone coordinate axis, which can help companies understand their current economic position compared to other competitors in their field. We also propose a strategic management framework to assist companies in using our methodologies more conveniently and confidently.
