Webinar description

In today’s fast-moving, services-driven world, capacity planning is no longer just a tactical function - it’s a strategic advantage. But how do leading organizations actually plan for the unpredictable? We’ll sit down with two seasoned operations and resource management leaders from DocuSign and Palo Alto Networks to unpack how they approach capacity planning in large, complex environments. From dealing with sudden shifts in demand to balancing utilization and well-being, you’ll hear real-world stories and frameworks that bring both clarity and confidence to the planning process. Whether you're building out a new capacity planning strategy or refining a mature function, this conversation will offer people-centered insights and proven methods for staying ahead - without burning out your teams.

What you'll learn:

  • The most common capacity planning mistakes — and how to avoid them
  • Tactics for managing unexpected spikes or dips in workload
  • How forecasting, scenario planning, and the right data can de-risk your planning
  • Strategies to balance utilization with team well-being
  • How AI and automation are shaping the future of capacity planning
  • Advice for building a scalable, human-centered planning approach
