Smart WFM: Trends and Tips for Success



Posted Nov 28, 2024

My job involves working with new and existing customers, and I’ve seen countless approaches to Workforce Management (WFM). One thing I’ve noticed? Many companies struggle to make the leap from traditional scheduling to a more dynamic, employee-centric approach. 

 

I’m often asked how to improve WFM processes and flow 💡 Here’s what I always say: “WFM is no longer just about scheduling - it’s about adaptability and empowerment”. 

 

To stay ahead, consider these approaches:

  1. Leverage AI for Precision: Use AI tools to forecast demand accurately, especially for seasonal peaks. Automated insights can reduce last-minute staffing changes and overtime costs.
  2. Embrace Flexibility: Support remote and hybrid work by offering dynamic scheduling. Time-zone-aware tools and self-service options can empower employees while maintaining efficiency.
  3. Focus on Employee Well-being: Regularly monitor workload distribution to prevent burnout. Encourage breaks and use real-time adherence tools to spot issues early.
  4. Scenario-Based Planning: Prepare for the unexpected by simulating multiple demand scenarios. This ensures you’re ready to pivot without disrupting workflows.

What about your WFM strategy? Are you making changes to improve adaptability and employee satisfaction?
