About This Simulation
Horizon 2030: Building the Workforce for an AI-Enabled Future is an applied learning simulation created to support Strategic Human Resource Management by Roger Batchelor. It complements Chapter 2 by giving you an opportunity to apply human resources planning and workforce analytics concepts to a realistic organizational situation.
Review Chapter 2 before beginning, or consult the chapter while completing the simulation.
In this simulation, you will serve as Director of Strategic Workforce Planning at Meridian Digital Group, a 1,200-employee technology and business-services organization preparing to launch an AI-enabled product line and enter two new markets.
You will interpret workforce evidence, forecast future requirements, assess internal and external workforce supply, identify capability gaps, develop a coordinated workforce strategy, and determine how results should be measured.
Your decisions should draw on concepts such as strategic workforce planning, demand forecasting, internal and external labour supply, workforce gaps, recruitment, retention, employee development, succession planning, job redesign, human resources information systems, workforce metrics, analytics, evidence-informed decision-making, and strategic HR outcomes.
Your choices will affect four live organizational indicators throughout the simulation: Capability Coverage, Workforce Readiness, Retention Stability, and Evidence Confidence.
