What types of training and development will best
attract, retain and develop the talent needed for
success?

KSS achieves business goals by sharing knowledge and creating a team of
high performing individuals. This philosophy has helped employees learn
and enhance their skill for achieving business goals, as well as share its
benefits with the society.

Through training and development, KSS Electrical & Automation builds
competency. This contributes to the efforts on organisational capability
development, organisation renewal and change management.

TRAINING PHILOSOPHY


The business has set up training centres symbolizing importance attached
to a mutually beneficial association with customers. It is a part of the
companys commitment to ensure that its switchgear provides maximum
benefit to customers.


TRAINING MISSION


KSS Switchgear Training Centres (STC) aim to upgrade and enhance the
standards of installations, maintenance and operation of low voltage
switchgear and control gear in the Indian industry.

These centres seek to promote good electrical practices among a wider
circle of users and personnel within the trade. The continuing efforts of
the STCs are certain to bring about an industry-wide improvement in
productivity.


TRAINING MOTTO


Enhancing customers level of knowledge and skills is KSSs obligation as
a responsible switchgear manufacturer.


Training has always been given high priority at KSS. The STCs symbolize
the importance attached to a mutually beneficial association with
customers.


If KSS can invest some percentage of Electrical & Automation Business'
turnover in developing a new product, it makes sense to invest one per
cent or so in ensuring that the product is properly used.

PERFORMANCE ORIENTED DEVELOPMENT PLAN (PODP)


PODP is the plan for identifying developmental and training needs of the
business. It provides a format to capture these needs during feedback. To
ensure holistic development of competencies, PODP recommends
employing methods like on-the-job-practice, self-study, participation in
external/internal competitions, special projects, voluntary assignments,
external programmes / seminars, etc.


CORE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMMES (CDP)


This programme seeks to develop and groom talent in the sphere of
general management and addresses higher-level responsibilities.

Orientation Programmes :
These programmes ensure a smooth transition to the corporate world. It
includes induction to KSS culture and values, information sharing about
the organisation, businesses and interaction with senior and top
management. These programmes are organised for MTs, GETs, PGTs,
PGETs, SSTs and DETs.

Theme Based Programmes :
These are programmes conducted on the basis of requirements of the
organization at that point of time. The programmes aid in spreading
awareness and knowledge about a particular system, model or process
which are important from the organization's viewpoint.

External Training Programmes :
These programmes aim at meeting the training needs at different levels
and are addressed through programmes offered by external training
agencies.

Does the organization have a plan for making the link
between training and development and the business
strategy understood by executives, managers and
employees or customers?

The primary objectives of Learning and Development within KSS are to:
Enable the organization to build competence needed in order to
achieve our business strategies
Support employees skill development to enable effective
performance in their roles
Support the development of employees to enable their career
progression.

Our Learning Commitment explains what learning opportunities KSS
provides and what KSS expects from its employees in terms of
competence. The Individual Performance Management discussions with
the line manager gives a clear picture of what is expected from us and
what competence to improve in order to meet our targets and career
ambitions. As a KSS employee, we are responsible for continuous learning
and acquisition of competence in line with business demands, assessing
needs and keeping our-self updated. Managers are responsible for
setting the right expectations in terms of performance targets and
competence development activities. Managers are also responsible for
holding individuals accountable for performance improvements that are
required after agreed competence development activities. In essence,
managers must secure that individuals maximize their potential in order
to meet current and future business demands. In this way the
organization makes the link between training and development and
business strategy understood by the various stakeholders.
