Management's Role and Competence in HRD: An Evaluation

The human resources development process in many organizations begins with the hiring of a new employee and continues throughout that employee's employment with the company. HR development is intended to provide employees with the knowledge they need to adapt to the culture of the firm and perform their jobs efficiently. The management of an organization plays an important role in the formulation and implementation of human resource development programmes and policies. This largely depends on their willingness and competencies to introduce such programme in the organization. The present paper is an attempt to evaluate the role, willingness and competencies of management of Himachal Road Transport Corporation (HRTC) and Himachal Pradesh Tourism Development Corporation towards human resource development in their respective organization.
