Theoretical analysis of The city bank limited

Definition of Human Resource Management (HRM):

According to Garry Dessler, HRM is the policies and practices that one needs to carry out the “people” or human resource aspects of a management position, including recruiting, screening, training, rewarding and appraising.

Definition of Selection:

The selection process is a series of specific steps used to decide which recruits should be hired. The process begins when recruits apply for employment and ends with the hiring decision. According to Dale Yoder, “selection is the process by which candidates for employment are divided into two classes those who will be offered for employment and those who will not.”

Definition of Training:

Training consists of planned programs designed to improve performance at the individual, group and organizational or organizational levels. Improved performance in turn implies that there have been measurable changes in knowledge, skills, attitude and social behavior.

According to Griffen, “training usually refers to the teaching operational or technical employees how to do the job for which they are hired.”

 

Definition of Development:

Employee development, by design, is more future oriented and more concerned with education than employee job specific training. According to Griffen, “development refers to teaching managers and professionals the skill needed for both present and future jobs.”

Employee developments methods are:

  • Job rotation
  • Assistant- to positions
  • Committee assignment

Training and Development program of The City Bank Limited:

Human Resource development is an essential pre-requisite to achieving organizational goals. Continuous training of the employees and executives is aimed at capacity and professional skill building throughout the year .The City Bank Limited has an established resourceful training institute .Experienced banker’s work as faculty members under the direct guidance of a director

Training is a learning experience in that it seeks a relatively permanent change in an individual that will improve his /her ability to perform on the job. We typically say training can involve the changing of skill, knowledge, attitudes or social behavior. It is application of knowledge.

Development is a related process. It covers not only those activities which improve job performance but also those which bring growth of the personality; help individuals to the progress toward maturity and actualization of their potential capacities so that they become not only good employees but better men and women. The most popular training methods used by The City Bank Limited can be classified as either on the job or off the job training.

On – the – Job Training:

The most widely used methods of training take place on the job. This can be attributed to the simplicity of such methods and the impressions that try are less costly to operate. 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.

One of the drawbacks to on the job training can be low productivity while the employees develop their skills.

Off- the -Job -Training:

Off-the -job training cover a number of techniques classroom lectures, films demonstrations, case studies and other simulation exercises, and programmed instruction. The facilities needs for each of these techniques vary for small makeshift classroom to an elaborate development center with large lecture halls, supplemented by small conference rooms with sophisticated audiovisual equipment, two many mirrors, and all the frills.

Training Needs and Priorities of The City Bank Limited:

Now that we have an understanding of what should include we can look at how we assess whether there is a need for training. We propose that management can determine this by answering four questions:

(1) What are the organization’s goals?

(2) What tasks must be completed to achieve these goals?

(3) What behaviors are necessary for each job incumbent to complete his/her assigned tasks?

(4) What deficiencies, if any, do incumbent have in the skills, knowledge or attitudes required to perform the necessary behaviors?

Training will be its judged by its contribution to performance where performance is a functional of skills, abilities, motivation, and the opportunity to perform. Manager must compare the value received from the increase in performance. That can be attributed to training with the costs incurred in that training. The desire for improved worker productivity cannot e approached in a vacuum. The benefits that accrue from training must exceed the costs incurred.

Steps in the Evaluation of training and Development:

  • Evaluation criteria
  • pretest trained or developed-
  • Workers posttest
  • Transfer to the job
  • Follow-up-studies

Rewards & Control Systems:

Rewards & Control Systems are meticulously refined to reinforce behavior that is deemed pivotal to succession the market place.
