 A bottom- line contribution to organizational
effectiveness is viewed as more important than
cost- cutting
 There is a move from a narrow focus on training to
a broader
concern for development
 An emphasis on the needs of the organization
rather than the needs of existing staff
 Shift from reactive problem solving to proactive
management

 Jackson (2002) opined that some cultural assumptions
underlie
human resource management
 with regards to developing employees: he deliberated
through an example which highlighted
 the distinction between the hard and soft approaches
on developmental aspects, appearing in
 the strategic HRM literature.The hard approach
assumed the
employees in the organizations
 as mere resources to achieve the objectives of the
organization, where as the soft approach
 viewed the employees more as valued assets capable
of
development (Tyson and Fell 1986;
 Hendry and Pettigrew 1990).

 The need for developing our employees is compelling
because a
 sound Training and Development plan has its contributions
to increase productivity and
 quality of work.The development strategy reduces staff
turnover and absenteeism and also
 helps in improving motivation among the employees. In
order to stay
ahead of our
 competition, training and development plan must
incorporate innovation and reinvention and
 this is only possible when training encompasses a wide
range of learning actions.Therefore,
 an ideal training shall become part of a company-wide
strategy and it
must be is linked to
 business goals and organizational performance.
