Abstract
The present paper describes the method in use in an industrial company for drawing up the personnel policies concerning the ‘Cadres’ (professionals and managers). This method aims at fulfilling concurrently both the needs of the organization and the career aspirations of the individuals. Its original feature is to use qualitative information together with more usual quantitative data. Such qualitative information is included into a detailed medium to long-term description of the company needs and it is subsequently incorporated into the description of the manpower planning policies themselves, allowing for a better allocation between the needs of the company and those of its workforce.
