How Can I Help My Organization Find the Right Manpower Size? Seeking Advice on Key Factors and Steps

Hi, how can I support my organization to right-size its manpower numbers? How can I identify the right size for my organization? What factors need to be considered, and how do I go about it? Thanks.

What performance your organization wishes to achieve will decide the manpower requirement. To decide on the performance, you need to measure ratios associated with each department. This measurement will help you understand what needs to be increased or decreased. Once you determine this, you will know how much manpower you require. While making decisions, it is not just a question of numbers, but the type of manpower also matters.

Finally, I can say that "rightsizing" depends on who can deliver what level of performance.

Thanks,
