EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Based on the data collected through the questionnaire and interactions with the
officials and executives of Hero Motors. Training is considered as a positive step
towards augmentation of the knowledge base by the respondents. The objectives of
the training programmes were broadly known to the respondents prior to attending
them. The training programmes were adequately designed to cater to the
developmental needs of the respondents. Some of the respondents suggested that the
time period of the training programmes were less and thus need to be increased. Some
of the respondents also suggested that use of latest training methods will enhance the
effectiveness of the training programmes. Some respondents believe that the training
sessions could be made more exciting if the sessions had been more interactive and in
line with the current practices in the market. The training aids used were helpful in
improving the overall effectiveness of the training programmes. The training
programmes were able to improve on-the-job efficiency. Some respondents also
recommended that the number of training programmes be increased. The organization
may utilize both subjective and objective approach for the training programmes. The
organization may consider deputing each employee to attend at least one training
programmes each year. The In-house training programmes will be beneficial to the
organization as well as employees since it will help employees to attend their official
work while undergoing the training. The organization can also arrange part time
training programmes in the office premises for short durations, spanning over a few
days, in order to avoid any interruption in the routine work. The organization can
arrange the training programmes department wise in order to give focused attention
towards the departmental requirements.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
The present work is an effort to throw some light on Training & Development
Practices in Organisations A Case Study of Hero Motors. The work would not
have been possible to come to the present shape without the able guidance,
supervision and help to me by number of people.

INTRODUCTION
1.1. Overview of Industry as a whole
INTRODUCTION TO THE RESEARCH TOPIC
Every organization needs to have experienced and well-trained employees to perform
the activities. Rapid changes in the environment have not only made the jobs more
complex but have also created increased pressures for the organisations to re-adapt
the products and services offered to compete in this fast changing world. Therefore, in
a rapidly changing society training is an activity, which is must for maintaining a
viable and knowledgeable work force.
Success of any training programme largely depends upon proper identification of
training needs. Training needs are felt by the managers when they discover/perceive
deviation between standard performance and actual performance of its employees. It
is not that only workers need training. Simultaneously supervisors, managers and
executives need to be trained and developed to grow and acquire maturity of thought
and action. Many organisations invest considerable resources in training and
development but never really examine how and where this can most effectively
promote organisational objectives and individual growth. The failure to analyse
training needs within the organisation will lead to lesser of benefits and huge
investment in the training programme of the institute. Hence it would be pertinent to
analyse training needs first and then impart training accordingly.
Training is a long term investment in human resource using the equation given below:
Performance = ability x motivation
Training can have an impact on both these factors. It can heighten the skills and
abilities of the employees and their motivation by increasing their sense of
commitment and encouraging them to develop and use new skills. It is a powerful
took that can have a major impact on both employee productivity and morale, if
properly used.

WHAT IS TRAINING?
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 skills, knowledge, attitudes or social behavior. It
may mean changing employees, how they work, their attitudes toward their work of
their interaction with their co-workers or supervisors.
TRAINING OBJECTIVES AND STRATEGIES
Having identified the training needs based on the various analyses discussed above,
the next logical steps are to set training objectives in concrete terms and to decide on
the training strategies to be adopted to meet these objectives. The training needs
basically highlight the gap between the existing and desired repertoire of knowledge
attitude and skills at individual, group and organizational level to enable the
employees to contribute towards the realization of
organizational objectives at
optimum efficiency. The training effort, thus will have to aim at filling in this gap by
clearly stating the objectives in quantitative and qualitative terms to be achieved
through
evaluate, monitor and measure the extent to which stated objectives have been met
through training intervention. As the training objectives are related to organizational
objectives, the involvement of the top management will be necessary to ensure that
the two sets of objectives are integrated.
It will be desirable to use the following criteria in setting training objectives:
Specific requirements of individuals and organizations so as to achieve integration
of the two.
Roles and tasks to be carried out by the target group.
Relationship with other positions vertically and horizontally and technological
imperatives.
Relevance, applicability and compatibility of training to wok situations.
Training as a means of bringing about a change in behavior back on the job.
11
Behavior including activities that can be observed, measured and/or recorded the
expected change in behavior must be useful, closely related to and subject to
maintenance in the work environment.
More specifically the following steps could be involved in setting training
objectives:
Identification of the behavior where change is required.
Nature and size of the group to be trained in terms of prior training, situational
factors, formal education.
Existing behavior defined in terms of ratio, frequency quality of interaction and
supervision, routines and repetitiveness, innovations, omissions, error, etc.
Desired behavior aimed at improving the existing condition stated preferably in
quantitative such as ratio, frequency of occurrence, reporting by exceptions, selfmonitoring mechanisms etc.
Operational results to be achieved through training stated in terms of increase in
efficiency and effectiveness criteria such as productivity, cost, down time,
turnover, time for innovations and creativity.
Indicators to be used in determining changes from existing to the desired level in
terms of ratio and frequency.
Depending on the objectives set, the next step is to decide on the strategy of training
involving the following:
Classification of objectives in terms of purposes :
Corrective objectives
Maintenance/status-quo objectives
Problem solving objectives, and
Innovative objectives
II. Classification of objectives in terms of levels of learning :
Skills of motor responses, memorization and simple conditioning.
Adaptation level where one is gaining knowledge or adapting to a simple
environment;
interpersonal understanding and skill;
Values of individuals and groups.

Economic development
Mr. Munjal started Hero Cycles in 1956 with limited resources and no technical

achieved that successfully and today Hero Cycles features in the Guinness Book of
World record for manufacturing 18500 Bi-cycles daily.
Mr. Munjal had pioneered the concept of, Off the assembly line in India and a pull
based supply system, which was sheerly driven by the constraint of capital. Inspite of
rapid industrialization he maintained Hero Cycles as a labour intensive unit since for
him the employees were an extended family. Most of them have joined and retired
from Hero Cycles, which is a no mean achievement.
The growth and prosperity of Hero Cycles was not just restricted to the promoters but

CAMPUS RECRUITMENTS

engineers for the industry. Since we constantly strive to recruit the best talent, Hero
Motors has developed a strong industry & academia link. We believing in catching
talent first so our Campus Recruitment Program (CRP) provides a platform for us to
meet the aspirants and pick up intellectual, committed youth who have requisite
19
enthusiasm and zeal to prove themselves. Students from top academic institutions
across India are picked up to work on live technical and business management
projects at our multi-locational offices. Our strong Graduate engineer Training and

may be of greater relevance. Nor would training be the answer of the problem lies
outside the job activity itself.
For examples, if salaries re low, if supervision is poor, if workers benefits are
inadequate or if the physical work tryout is deficient, spending on employee training
may have little or no effect on productivity, since inadequate performance is due to
conditions that training cannot remedy. Training can enhance skills but does nothing
to relieve monotony.
Once if has been determined that training is necessary, training goals must be
established. Management should explicitly state what changes or results are sought for
each employee. It is not adequate merely to say that change in employee knowledge,
skills, attitudes or social behavior is desirable, we must clarify what is to change, and
by how much. These goals should be tangible, feasible and measurable. It should be
clear both to the management as well as the employee.

Training imported in any type would be skill, attitude or knowledge based training or
a combination of the three.
Classroom training outside the organisation through external agencies for meeting
specific job function related needs which cannot be imported internally. This is
normally the case when the training involves specific areas and smaller numbers
making it uneconomical to conduct the programme internally. These external sources
must be chosen with care and must be able to fulfill the organization's analyzed
training and development needs. These training methods must be supplemented by
enabling the trainees to apply in the work place and translating into job competence
the knowledge and skill gained through such training.
Classroom training within the organisation through external and internal agencies :
These programmes must be carefully designed to ensure that they mirror the trainee
groups requirements individually and collectively. Like the external courses, when
designing these programmes, one must ensure that the training objectives are
expressed in terms of job competence as well s knowledge and skill.
This method of training is must effective in bringing together employees in larger
numbers to address common training needs. The training faculty is critical to the
success of such training programmes. The importance and the initiality of the need for
proper communication of knowledge and ideas dictate that the selection of faculty
members must be made keeping the receiver in mind.
On the job training enables the employees to learn the job while actually carrying out
the tasks involved in the job. All new recruits joining the organisation are required to
undergo induction programme with planned work experience in various departments
associated with the employees own department for a short duration to
employee with basic knowledge fundamental to his job function.

increased.
The duration of the training sessions should be amplified.
New programmes for personal as well as professional development of the
officers should be developed.
Officers should be referred for the training programmes as per their
developmental needs.
The training programmes should be organized outside the office in order to
avoid disturbance in the work.
Some training sessions should also be organized in house for the officers who
find it difficult to attend them if held outside the office premises.
Better presentation technologies should be used in order to increase the
effectiveness of the programmes.
The course curriculum for the training programmes should be current in terms
of the new developments in the world.

CHAPTER-4
FINDINGS
64
FINDINGS
The major findings of the project are enumerated as follows:
45% of the officers have attended 6-15 training programmes in the last 5 years,
which is an indication of an effective training policy of the organization. However,
40% of the officers have attended only 0-5 training programmes, which needs to
be evenly
monitored by the organization.
35% of the respondents moderately agree to the fact of knowing the training
objectives beforehand, in addition to 25% who strongly agree. But a small
population disagrees as 20% strongly disagree to this notion. Training objectives
should therefore be made known compulsorily before imparting training in the
organization.
70% of the respondents feel that the training programmes were in accordance to
their developmental needs. 15% respondents could not comment on the question
and 15% think that the programmes are irrelevant to their developmental needs
and the organization must ensure programmes that satisfy the developmental
needs of the officers.
52% respondents feel that the time limit of the training programme was adequate
but 25% feel that it was insufficient. Also, 21% could not comment on the
question. All the respondents though felt that increase in time limit of the
programmes would certainly be beneficial and the organization should plan for
this to be implemented in the near future.
Training is considered as a positive step towards augmentation of the knowledge
base by the respondents.
The objectives of the training programmes were broadly known to the respondents
prior to attending them.
The training programmes were adequately designed to cater to the developmental
needs of the respondents.
65
Some of the respondents suggested that the time period of the training
programmes were less and thus need to be increased.
Some of the respondents also suggested that use of latest training methods will
enhance the effectiveness of the training programmes.
Some respondents believe that the training sessions could be made more exciting
if the sessions had been more interactive and in line with the current practices in
the market.
The training aids used were helpful in improving the overall effectiveness of the
training programmes.
The training programmes were able to improve on-the-job efficiency.
Some respondents also recommended that the number of training programmes be
increased.

RECOMMENDATIONS
67
RECOMMENDATIONS
Based on the data collected through the questionnaire and interactions with the
officials and executives of Hero Motors, the following recommendations are made for
consideration:
The organization may utilize both subjective and objective approach for the
training programmes.
The organization may consider deputing each employee to attend at least one
training programmes each year.
The In-house training programmes will be beneficial to the organization as well as
employees since it will help employees to attend their official work while
undergoing the training.
The organization can also arrange part time training programmes in the office
premises for short durations, spanning over a few days, in order to avoid any
interruption in the routine work.
The organization can arrange the training programmes department wise in order to
give focused attention towards the departmental requirements.
