Leading the consumer operations team at News Corp (and previously in creative operations roles at Canva and Facebook), Jacquie Ford understands resource planning like the back of her hand 😌 That’s why we thought she’d be the perfect person to share the top misconceptions people have about resource planning. Here’s what she said 👇 🔢 It’s not just a numbers game. Numbers only tell half the story of productivity, quality output, and team health. You need to listen to the team to get the full picture. 😶🌫️ Resourcing is not a set-and-forget exercise. Know when to fix it and when to flex it. 🕐 Time spent on non-billable tasks is still valuable. For example, internal meetings keep projects on track and the team in sync, so you should factor that time into your resource plan. What misconceptions have you been itching to call out? Tell us in the comments below. #resourceplanning

The old way: I think we might be able to get this project done 🤔 The new way: Based on our team’s capacity in Float, we have the time and the skills to get this project to the finish line 😎 Our customers have moved away from gut feeling and guesswork to make data-driven project decisions 📈 For example, Pascal Josephy, Managing Director at digital agency novu ag, first checks if his team has enough time to get a project delivered before saying yes to a potential customer. And Angela Faunce Leaf, Executive Producer, Integrated Production, at creative studio Tilt Creative Production, uses Float to make sure her team has the necessary skills to get the work done, so they don’t run the risk of committing now and outsourcing later.
