From the Paper:

"During recent years, U.S. Cellular has been engaged in growth and development strategies, managing in 2007 to add a total number of 297,000 new clients to their already existent customer base. This resulted in increased need for more staff and the human resource department had to develop the personnel planning, process through which they identify the present and future staffing needs of the organization. Another major change that generated implications was the introduction of newer and better technologies. These brought about a net increase in the quality of the products and also managed to increase the efficiency of the operations process, but forced the company employees to develop along. And this education and training of the personnel is an ongoing process within U.S. Cellular who wishes to benefit from the best employees that add value to the organization and help it differentiate its products and services."
