Managerial Estimates ✔✔The most common method of estimating HR demand. These are

are no longer needed.
Replacement Planning ✔✔This type of planning uses charts that show the names of the current
occupants of positions in the organization and the names of likely replacements.
Simple Linear Regression ✔✔A projection of future demand is based on a past relationship
between the organization's employment level and a variable related to employment, such as sales
and shows how these measures are connected.
Succession Planning ✔✔This type of planning tends to be long-term, developmental, and flexible.
Although this type of planning is widely practiced, many employers who use it tend to emphasize
characteristics of the managers and downplay characteristics of the positions to which the
managers may eventually be promoted.

action based on how well that action conforms to some rule or principle, regardless of the
consequences.
