In this wide-ranging and deeply practical conversation, Peter shares how workforce planning has evolved from static spreadsheets and reactive headcount decisions into a strategic, data-driven discipline that directly impacts business resilience and growth. He explains why many organizations struggle with workforce planning today, not because of a lack of data, but because their internal job architectures, skills frameworks, and headcount models are disconnected from real labor market signals. Peter walks through how Vemo was designed to solve that exact problem by creating a dynamic bridge between internal workforce data and continuously updated external market intelligence. Peter also breaks down how predictive analytics and AI can move organizations beyond backward-looking reports toward forward-looking scenarios, enabling leaders to test assumptions, anticipate talent shortages, and understand the downstream effects of hiring, upskilling, redeployment, or attrition before those decisions are made. The discussion explores how automated supply and demand modeling allows companies to shift from annual planning cycles to ongoing, adaptive workforce strategies that respond to business change in near real time. Throughout the episode, we dive into the challenges of standardizing job taxonomies across large enterprises, the risks of relying on inconsistent job titles and legacy role definitions, and how aligning internal structures with external labor data can unlock far more accurate forecasting. Peter shares real-world examples of how organizations are using workforce planning not only to support HR, but to inform finance, strategy, and executive decision-making. He also discusses how AI can augment human judgment in workforce planning, rather than replace it, by giving leaders better inputs, clearer tradeoffs, and stronger confidence in their decisions. We also explore the future of workforce planning as AI adoption accelerates, roles continue to evolve, and skill requirements change faster than traditional planning models can keep up. Peter offers insights into where HR technology is heading, what capabilities organizations should prioritize, and how workforce planning can become a competitive advantage rather than a compliance exercise. This episode is especially relevant for HR leaders, people analytics teams, finance partners, and executives who want to move from reactive headcount management to proactive talent strategy.
