Is "Human Resource Planning in Organizations" a Good MBA Project Topic? Seeking Advice and Suggestions

Hello friends,

I'm an MBA student. I'm planning to do my project with the title "HUMAN RESOURCE PLANNING IN ORGANISATIONS." I need some information about it and some guidelines on how to proceed. Is it a good topic or not? Please help me in this regard and provide me with topics for projects that will help my career.

With regards,

Hi Martin,

Your topic sounds generic. For an academic project, you have to choose a specific topic and do research on it. You can work on "Retention Strategy." Here, you can research the retention potential of the company, what the potential of the company is to retain its people. You can analyze the retention potential in three periods: past, present, and future. Find out the parameters that keep people in the organization, such as growth aspects, recognition, and compensation. Check with people how these factors motivate them over the three periods. By doing this, you will determine the organization's potential in retaining its employees. Feel free to reach out if you have any queries.

Thank you.

Some topics that come to my mind include:
- Talent Management
- Competency Mapping
- KRA (Key Result Area) and Performance Management
- Competency-based training
- Competency-based Performance Management
- Change Leadership and OD
- Change Management
- Human Resource Accounting
- Training Effectiveness
- Training Need Assessment
- Attrition Management

If the topic is very specific, it would be easy to focus on that particular area.

Thank you for the topic. Can you give me more insight into the topic? How should I proceed with it? Is it related to employee satisfaction in the organization, or is it a part of it?

The topic "human resource planning" is too generic. Why don't you take up something like the role of HR during the recession period? HR is not being acknowledged by corporates during this stressful period. Prepare a project on how beneficial HR is during these trying times and how cost-effective it would be to have a good HR team! The topic may be "The HR Bailout Strategy!" Thanks
