Project Staffing & Assignment Process Prompt

Prompt

Our resource assignment process is ad-hoc and political, leading to suboptimal assignments. Build a staffing and assignment process.

Include: (1) Current state – how are resources assigned today? Criteria? (2) Assignment criteria – what should drive assignments? Skill, development, availability, client? (3) Staffing plan template – standardized plan by project phase with roles. (4) Assignment authority – who approves? Escalation process? (5) Transparency – how do people know what's available? (6) Fairness – how do we ensure consistent, fair assignments?

Include staffing plan template and assignment framework. Make process transparent.

Why it works

Transparent assignment improves morale and staffing quality. Less politics.

Watch out for

Over-democratic assignment slows decisions. Designate clear authority.
