Ahmed is very excited about his new position as the first Human Resource Manager for Savox Company, a specialty food importer and distributor located in Jeddah. When he was offered the job, the CEO made it clear that his role would be vital as the company completed its strategic planning process this year. "We've never had an HR manager before, so things have been hit and miss in planning the people part of the equation. We will be counting on you to improve our accuracy in forecasting how many and what type of people we'll need, and to help us get much better at figuring out from where those people will come. In addition to the usual turnover, we have some very exciting plans. We're expanding further into mainstream grocery stores next year, launching several new products and planning a new venture for 2017 - Ahmed has some experience in the process of HR planning, but he is a little nervous about exactly how he will guide Savox's managers through the forecasting process for such a complex chain of events. The CEO has asked Ahmed to begin by presenting an overall plan for the HR planning process, and how those plans will be implemented at the next Board meeting-a week from today.
