July and August — Workforce Planning and Headcount Review: Starts: 1 July | Deadline: 31 August (plan submitted to finance): Workforce planning ensures the organisation has the right people, with the right competencies, knowledge and skills, in the right roles at the right time. Summer is the right moment for this work — it is the quietest operational period, giving senior leaders the space for strategic conversations. The plan must be complete before the autumn budget process closes, because people costs are typically the largest single line in any company's budget. The gap between today's workforce and tomorrow's requirements drives every recruitment, development, and succession decision that follows.
