QUESTIONAIRE

INTRODUCTION As a part of the curriculum of MBA (III) semester, I underwent my ……… Summer training project at LUMAX INDUSTRIES LTD, SIDCUL. This six-weeks training in an industrial organization seems to be necessary for the complete understanding of the phenomenon related with Training and development. This study prescribes add situation before the researcher, there by he/she gets perfection. This short of study injects flavors of confidence in heart and mind of the researcher. It provides ample opportunity to comprehend the phenomenon and suggest best solution of it.

I was assigned the title "Training and development". My topic is concerned with the employee's development at LUMAX INDUSTRIES LIMITED, SIDCUL. Employees training tries to improve skills, or add to the existing level of knowledge so that employees is better equipped to do his present job, or to prepare him for higher position with increased responsibilities. However individual growth is not and ends in itself. Organizational growth need to be measured along with individual growth.

Training refers to the teaching or learning activities done for the primary purpose of helping members of an organization to acquire and apply the same. Broadly speaking training is the act of increasing the knowledge and skills of an employee for doing a particular job.

In today’s scenario change is the order of the day and the only way to deal with it is to learn and grow. Employees have become central to success or failure of on organization they are the

cornucopia ideas. So it high time the organization realize that “train and retain is the mantra of new millennium.”

OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY The specific objectives of the study are:  To examine the effectiveness of training in overall development of skills of workforce.  To examine the impact of training on workers.  To study the changes in behavioral pattern due to training.  To find out new methods of training and development in LUMAX, SIDCUL. I have tried to take a view on the topic in a practical manner, so that the feedback can be provided to the organization.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Every organization needs to have well trained and experienced people to perform the activities that have to be done. If current or potential job occupants can meet these requirements, training is not important. When this not the case, it is necessary to raise the skills levels and increase the versatility and adaptability of employees.

It is being increasing common for individual to change careers several times during their working lives. The probability of any young person learning a job today and having those skills go basically unchanged during the forty or so years if his career is extremely unlikely, may be even impossible. In a rapid changing society employees training is not only an activity that an organization must commit resources to if it is to maintain a viable and knowledgeable work force.

The entire project talks about the training and development in theoretical as well as new concepts, which are in trend now. Here we have discussed what would be the input of training if we ever go for and how can it be good to any organization in reaping the benefits from the money invested in terms like (ROI )i.e. return on investment. What are the ways we can identify the training need of any employees and how to know what kind of training he can go for?

Training being in different aspect likes integrating it with organizational culture. The best and latest available trends in training method, the benefits which we can derive out of it. How the evaluation should be done and how effective is the training all together. Some of the companies practicing training in unique manner a lesson for other to follow as to how train and retain the best resource in the world to reap the best out of it.

Development is integral part of training if somebody is trained properly and efficiently the developments of that individual and the company for whom he is working. Here we discussed about development of employees, how much to identify the needs, and after developing how to develop executive skill to sharpen their knowledge. Learning should be continues process and one should not hesitate to learn any stage. Learning and developing is fast and easy at LUMAX industries ltd.

MEANING OF RESEARCH & DEFINITION Research refers to a search for knowledge. Once can also define research as a scientific and systematic search for pertinent information on a specific topic.

• • •

Research is an art of scientific investigation.

Systematized effort to gain new knowledge [Redman and Mary] It is a voyage of discovery

METHODOLOGY Methodolgy can be defined as• • •

“The analysis of the principles of methods, rules, and postulates employed by a discipline”.

“The systematic study of methods that are, can be or have been applied within a discipline”.

“A particular procedure or set of procedures”.

Methodology includes a collection of theories, concepts or ideas as they relate to a particular discipline or field of inquiry: Methodology refers to more than a simple set of methods; ] rather it refers to the rationale and the philosophical assumptions that underlie a particular study relative to the scientific method. This is why scholarly literature often includes a section on the methodology of the researchers. This section does more than outline the researchers’ methods might explain what the researchers’ ontological orepistemological views are.

Another key (though arguably imprecise) usage for methodology does not refer to research or to the specific analysis techniques. This often refers to anything and everything that can be encapsulated for a discipline or a series of processes, activities and tasks. Examples of this are found in software development, project management and business process fields. This use of the term is typified by the outline who, what, where, when, and why. In the documentation of the processes that make up the discipline, that is being supported by "this" methodology, that is where we would find the "methods" or processes. The processes themselves are only part of the methodology along with the identification and usage of the standards, policies, rules, etc.

Researchers acknowledge the need for rigor, logic, and coherence in their methodologies, which are subject to peer review.

TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT IN LUMAX

In the field of human resource management, training and development is the field concerned with organizational activity aimed at bettering the performance of individuals and groups inorganizational settings. It has been known by several names, including employee development, human resource development, and learning and development Harrison observes that the name was endlessly debated by the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development during its review of professional standards in 1999/2000. "Employee Development" was seen as too evocative of the master-slave relationship between employer and employee for those who refer to their employees as "partners" or "associates" to be comfortable with. "Human Resource Development" was rejected by academics, who objected to the idea that people were "resources" — an idea that they felt to be demeaning to the individual. Eventually, the CIPD settled upon "Learning and Development", although that was itself not free from problems, "learning" being an overgeneral and ambiguous name. Moreover, the field is still widely known by the other names.

Training and development encompasses three main activities: training, education, and development. Garavan, Costine, and Heraty, of the Irish Institute of Training and Development, note that these ideas are often considered to be synonymous. However, to practitioners, they encompass three separate, although interrelated, activities:

Training This activity is both focused upon, and evaluated against, the job that an individual currently holds.

Education This activity focuses upon the jobs that an individual may potentially hold in the future, and is evaluated against those jobs.

Development This activity focuses upon the activities that the organization employing the individual, or that the individual is part of, may partake in the future, and is almost impossible to evaluate.

The "stakeholders" in training and development are categorized into several classes.

The sponsors of training and development are senior managers. The clients of training and development are business planners. Line managers are responsible for coaching, resources, and

performance. The participants are those who actually undergo the processes. The facilitators are Human Resource Management staff. And the providers are specialists in the field. Each of these groups has its own agenda and motivations, which sometimes conflict with the agendas and motivations of the others.

The conflicts are the best part of career consequences are those that take place between employees and their bosses. The number one reason people leave their jobs is conflict with their bosses. And yet, as author, workplace relationship authority, and executive coach, Dr. John Hoover points out, "Tempting as it is, nobody ever enhanced his or her career by making the boss look stupid." Training an employee to get along well with authority and with people who entertain diverse points of view is one of the best guarantees of long-term success. Talent, knowledge, and skill alone won't compensate for a sour relationship with a superior, peer, or customer.

IMPORTANCE OF TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT

•

OPTIMUM UTILIZATION OF HUMAN RESOURCES- Training and development helps in optimizing the utilization of human resource that further helps the employee to achieve the organizational goals as well as their individual’s goals.

•

DEVELOPMENT OF HUMAN RESOURCE- Training and development helps to provide an opportunity and broad structure for the development of human resources technical and behavioral skills in an organization. It also helps the employees in attaining personal growth.

•

DEVELOPMENT OF SKILLS OF EMPLOYEES- Training and development helps in increasing the job knowledge and skill of employees at each level. It helps to expand the horizons of human intellect and an overall personality of the employees.

METHODS OF TRAINING There are various methods of training, which can be divided in to cognitive and behavioral methods. Trainers need to understand the pros and cons of each method, also its impact on trainees keeping their background and skills in mind before giving training. The various methods that come under cognitive approach are: LECTURE- A method training It is one of the oldest methods of training. This method is used to create understanding of a topic or to influence behavior, attitudes through lecture. A lecture can be in printed or oral form.

Lecture is telling someone about something.

Demonstration training method

This method is a visual display of how something works or how to do something. As an example, trainer shows the trainees how to perform or how to do the tasks of the job. In order to be more effective, demonstration method should be accompanied by the discussion or lecture method.

Discussion training method This method uses a lecture to provide the learners with context that is supported, elaborated, explain, or expanded on through interactions both among the trainees and between the trainer and the trainees.

The discussion method consists a two-way flow of communication i.e. knowledge in the form of lecture is communicated to trainees, and then understanding is conveyed back by trainees to trainer.

Computer based training With the world-wide expansion of companies and changing technologies, the demands for knowledge and skilled employees have increased more than ever, which in turns, is putting pressure on HR department to provide training at lower costs. Many organizations are now implementing CBT as an alternative to classroom based training to accomplish those goals.

Behavioral methods are more of giving practical training to the trainees. The various methods under behavioral approach allow the trainee to behave in real fashion. These methods are best used for skill development.

The various methods that come under behavioral approach are: •

GAMES AND STIMULATION



BEHAVIOR-MODELING



BUSINESS GAMES



CASE STUDIES



EQUIPMENT STIMULATORS



IN-BASKET TECHNIQUE



ROLE PLAY

ON THE JOB TRAININGThere are many management development techniques that an employees can take in off the job.

The few popular methods are: 

SENSITIVITY TRAINING



TRANSACTIONAL ANALYSIS



STRAIGHT LECTURE/ LECTURES



SIMULATION EXERCISE

TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT METHOD ADOPTED BY LUMAX INDUSTRIES LTD. The training methods which are generally used in an organization are classified into two i.e 1-ON THE JOB: On the job training places the employees in an actual work situation and makes them appear to be immediately productive. It is learning by doing. For jobs, that either are difficult to simulate or can be learn quickly by watching and doing on-the job training makes sense.

2- OFF THE JOB: Off-the-job training covers a number of techniques classroom lectures, films, demonstration, case studies and other simulation exercises, and programmed instruction.

INPUTS IN TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENTS IN LUMAX INDUSTRIES LTD.

Any training and development program must contain inputs which enable the participants to gain skills, learn theoretical concepts and help acquire vision to look into distant future. In addition to these, there is a need to impart ethical orientation, emphasize on attitudinal changes and stress upon decision-making and problem-solving abilities.

Skills Training, as was stated earlier, is imparting skills to employees. A worker needs skills to operate machines, and use other equipments with least damage or scrap. This is a basic skill without which the operator will not be able to function. There is also the need for motor skills. Motor skills refer to performance of specific physical activities. These skills involve training to move various parts of one’s body in response to certain external and internal stimuli. Common motor skills include walking, riding a bicycle, tying a shoelace, throwing a ball and driving a car. Motor skills are needed for all employees – from the clerk to the general manager. Employees, particularly supervisors and executives, need interpersonal skills popular known as the people skills. Interpersonal skills are needed to understand one self and others better, and act accordingly. Examples of interpersonal skills include listening, persuading, and showing an understanding of others’ feelings.

Education The main purpose of lumax industries is to provide education to teach theoretical concepts and develop a sense of reasoning and judgment. That any training and development program must contain an element of education is well understood by HR specialist. Any such program has university professors as resource persons to enlighten participants about theoretical knowledge of the topic proposed to be discussed. In fact organizations depute or encourage employees to do courses on a part time basis. Chief Executive Officers (CEO’s) are known to attend refresher courses conducted by business schools. Education is important for managers and executives than for lower-cad reorders.

Development Another component of a training and development is development which is less skill oriented but stressed on knowledge. Knowledge about business environment, management principles and techniques, human relations, specific industry analysis and the like is useful for better management of the company.

Ethics There is need for imparting greater ethical orientation to a training and development program.

There is no denial of the fact that ethics are largely ignored in businesses. Unethical practices abound in marketing, finance and production function in an organization. They are less see and talked about in the personnel function. If the production, finance and marketing personnel indulge in unethical practices the fault rests on the HR manager. It is his/her duty to enlighten all the employees in the organization about the need of ethical behavior.

TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT AS SOURCE OF COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE: LUMAX derive competitive advantage from training and development. Training and development program, as was pointed out earlier, help remove performance deficiencies in employee. This is particularly true when – (1) The deficiency is caused by a lack of ability rather than a lack of motivation to perform, (2) The individual(s) involved have the aptitude and motivation need to learn to do the job better, and (3) Supervisors and peers are supportive of the desired behaviors.

Training & Development offers competitive advantage to LUMAX by removing performance deficiencies; making employees stay long; minimized accidents, scraps and damage; and meeting future employee needs.

There is greater stability, flexibility, and capacity for growth in an organization. Training contributes to employee stability in at least two ways. Employees become efficient after undergoing training. Efficient employees contribute to the growth of the organization. Growth renders stability to the workforce. Further, trained employees tend to stay with the organization.

They seldom leave the company. Training makes the employees versatile in operations. All rounder’s can be transferred to any job. Flexibility is therefore ensured. Growth indicates prosperity, which is reflected in increased profits from year to year. Who else but well-trained employees can contribute to the prosperity of an enterprise?

Accidents, scrap and damage to machinery and equipment can be avoided or minimized through training. Even dissatisfaction, complaints, absenteeism, and turnover can be reduced if employees are trained well.

Future needs of employees will be met through training and development program.

Organizations take fresh diploma holders or graduates as apprentices or management trainees.

They are absorbed after course completion. Training serves as an effective source of recruitment.

Training is an investment in HR with a promise of better returns in future.

In LUMAX training and development pays dividends to the employee. Though no single training program yields all the benefits, the organization which devotes itself to training and development enhances its HR capabilities and strengthens its competitive edge. At the same time, the employee's personal and career goals are furthered, generally adding to his or her abilities and value to the employer.

Efforts for making training and development formats user friendly should be

kept

continued.

CONCLUSION This study was a learning experience for me and I came to know the training and development programs in lumax Industries Ltd Sidcul, Rudrapur was positive in response but still more training and development is needed in Lumax so that the employees are motivated time by time and they should know their strength & weakness so that they can work on it & improve their knowledge & skills for the betterment of their organization.

In the last but not the least I conclude that all the training and development programs of company are highly effective & beneficial to the employees in giving their best contribution to their personal growth & development as well to meet the organizational objective.
