After an initial screening of titles and abstracts, the selected articles were further assessed for their relevance. The selected articles were carefully read and analyzed to extract key findings, research methodologies, and theoretical frameworks. Results: The reviewed studies indicate that effective resource planning plays a significant role in fostering innovation and supporting organizational growth. The studies highlight that resource planning, when aligned with organizational goals and objectives, can promote a culture of innovation and facilitate the implementation of growth strategies. This includes efficient allocation of resources, identification of potential opportunities, and prioritization of projects.
