At this point, Abby had a lot of important information figured out. She could clearly see what would need to happen to get the work done, and what it would take to get there. Abby decided the best next thing to do next was to review and add to her human resource management plan, to finish planning how to best manage her team.

Her human resources management plan would become especially helpful once the work began, though. By planning ahead for how to best manage her team to get the work done, Abby could come up with ideas for how to train everyone and how to review their work and provide the right feedback.
