Most teams plan around confirmed work, but future demand often starts taking shape long before projects are signed off. The result? Last-minute resourcing decisions, hidden capacity gaps, and teams that only see the impact once it’s too late. In this 30-minute guided walkthrough, we’ll show how teams use Runn to forecast tentative work, use placeholders to represent demand before people are assigned, compare Scenarios for different pipeline possibilities, and explore “what-if” questions to understand how future projects could affect capacity, availability, and utilization. This session focuses on how earlier forecasting helps teams plan with more confidence, starting with a key question: What happens to our team’s capacity if this future work becomes real?
• How to forecast future demand using tentative projects before work is confirmed
• How to use placeholders to capture demand before named people are assigned
• How to compare Scenarios for different pipeline possibilities, like high-confidence deals or priority projects
• How to explore “what-if” questions without changing your confirmed plan
• How to spot capacity risks across roles, teams, availability, and utilization early

Jenna works with project-based teams every day, helping them gain clarity and control over resource planning and capacity forecasting. Through ongoing conversations with resource managers, operations leaders, and executives across industries, she brings real-time insight into the challenges teams are navigating. Passionate about helping organizations move from reactive planning to confident, data-informed decision-making, Jenna brings a powerful perspective to complement the survey findings.
