INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION
In the era of decision making, every company or a corporate looks to have a cutting
edge over competitors. It is all about human resources who play a pivotal role in enriching
the organization towards it goals and winning the brand image of the organization in the
market. But in order to have a strong and potential manpower means we need to enrich the
skills sets based on the changes in the environment through potential training and
development interventions based on the requirement of the organization. Training and
development plays an important role in the effectiveness of organizations and to the
experiences of people in work. At present, majority of the corporate and industries re
investing huge investment in training and development in order to develop their human
resources. But after having the training and development programmes, the organizations are
not coming with successful results in terms of their expectations. This is due to lack of
training need assessment by the organizations. This paper will begin with an overview of the
training and development function and how the needs assessment fits into this process,
followed by an in-depth look at the core concepts and steps involved in conducting a training
need assessment.
A needs assessment is a part of planning processes, often used for improvement in
individuals, education/training, organizations, or communities. It can refine and improve a
product such as a training or service a client receives. It can be an effective tool to clarify
problems and identify appropriate interventions or solutions. By clearly identifying the
problem, finite resources can be directed towards developing and implementing a feasible
and applicable solution. Gathering appropriate and sufficient data informs the process of
developing an effective product that will address the groups needs and wants. Needs
assessments are only effective when they are ends-focused and provide concrete evidence
that can be used to determine which of the possible means-to-the-ends are most effective and
efficient for achieving the desired results.
Definition:
A needs assessment is the process of identifying performance requirements and the
"gap" between what performance is required and what presently exists.
The training needs assessment is a critical activity for the training and development function.
Training needs assessment is an ongoing process of gathering data to determine what training
needs exist so that training can be developed to help the organization accomplish its
objectives. Conducting needs assessment is fundamental to the success of a training program.
Often organizations will develop and implement training without first conducting a needs
analysis. These organizations run the risk of overdoing training, doing too little training or
missing the point completely.
Effective training or development depends on knowing what is required for the individual,
the department and the organization as a whole. With limited budgets and the need for the
cost-effective solutions, all organizations need to ensure that the resources invested in
training are targeted at areas where training and development is needed and a positive return
on the investment is guaranteed. Effective training need assessment is particularly vital in
todays changing workplace as new technologies and flexible working practices are
becoming widespread, leading to corresponding changes in the skills and abilities needed.
Analyzing what the training needs are is a vital prerequisite for any effective training
programme or event. Simply throwing training at individuals may miss priority needs, or even
cover areas that are not essential. Effective training need assessment involves systematic
planning, analysis and co ordination across the organization to ensure that organizational
priorities are taken into account that duplication of effort is avoided and economics of scale
are achieved. Training need assessments enables organizations to channel resources into the
areas where they will contribute the most to employee, development, enhancing, morale and
organizational performance. Training need assessment is a natural function of appraisal
systems and is key requirement for the award of investors in people. The analysis of training
needs is not a task for specialists alone. Managers today are often responsible for many forms
of people management, including the training and development of their team and should
therefore have an understanding of training needs analysis and be able to implement it
successfully.
Training needs analysis involves:
Monitoring current performance using techniques such as observation, interviews and
questionnaires
Anticipating future shortfalls or problems
Identifying the type and level of training required and analyzing how this can best be
provided.
Definition
Training Needs Assessment (TNA) is the method of determining if a training need exists
and, if it does, what training is required to fill the gap. TNA seeks to identify accurately the
levels of the present situation in the target surveys, interview, observation, secondary data
and/or workshop. The gap between the present status and desired status may indicate
problems that in turn can be translated into a training need.
Training Needs = Desired Capability Current Capability of the Participants
Training can reduce, if not eliminate, the gap, by equipping the participants with knowledge
and skills and by encouraging them to build and enhance their capabilities. The data on the
present status are vital to the evaluation or impact survey in the latter part of the training ycle.
These shall serve as the baseline data. The following are some techniques for acquiring such
data. These may be applied independently or in combination.
TNA is also the process of collecting information about an expressed or implied
organizational need that could be met by conducting training. The need can be a performance
that does not meet the current standard. It means that there is a prescribed or best way of
doing a task and that variance from it is creating a problem. The TNA process helps the
trainer and the person requesting training to specify the training need or performance
deficiency. Assessments can be formal (using survey and interview techniques) or informal
(asking some questions of those nvolved).
Why do we need training?
Because training is a means to ensure that government officials have the knowledge and right
skills to be able to do their work effectively and competently. Training may be needed when
there is a gap between the desired performance, and the current performance, and the reason
for that gap is lack of skill or knowledge. Training may only be able to resolve part of the
problem. Thus we need to analyze the problem and find out whether training will be able to
resolve it. If training is necessary, we also need to define the objective of the training and
how it will help the staff member(s) become more effective. This process is called a Training
Needs Assessment
shown above or Training Needs Analysis.It is important to note that, despite many reasons to
conduct training shown above, training may sometimes not be the only solution to a problem.
There are many other means that impact on someones ability to do their work, as pointed out
in the Report on Training Needs Assessment by PILAC. The following are other examples.
Realizing the policy direction of the organization, performance analysis known as gap
analysis is conducted to look at an officials current working performance and knowledge
and identify whether an official is performing as desired based on given roles and
responsibilities. Then the more explicit the standard for current performance and knowledge,
the easier it will be to describe the gap in performance or knowledge deficiency. During the
preliminary study of PILAC, the current problem was identified as follows: Training
officials is urgently needed to implement D&D reform and improve local administration,
because the efficient and effective implementation of the D&D Framework requires deep
understanding of the Framework among public officials at the national, provincial, and
district levels who are in charge of local administration.
After identifying problems and needs, set up overall objectives for a training course. In
PILAC, the following objectives of the training course were already set up through discussion
between JICA and the Ministry of Interior (MOI) prior to project implementation, i.e., during
the preliminary study.
Public officials improve their understanding of D&D policy.
Public officials improve their skills to apply D&D policy to their daily duties and
functions assigned.
Sometimes it may be impossible to fulfill the need, but that is not the decision of the person
conducting TNA. Actually, knowing exactly what elements of information are required can
serve as a guide a road map- for your analysis.
The survey must clearly define the target group of the training, i.e., target population.
Although no strict rules for defining exist, the target population must be defined in line with
the objectives of TNA. The survey should produce the following elements in its report:
training subject(s); importance of the training; time requirements; current target group;
potential target group; frequency of training; and required outputs of the training.
Once a target group for the training, i.e., target population, is identified,interviewees for the
survey are selected. It is likely that all the officials of the target group cannot be interviewed
due to time constraints. Thus, sampling of the target population which will be addressed in
the next section should be used.
The following figure indicates types of needs analysis and contents. It is suggested that those
analyses be used in combination depending on the needs, time availability and manpower.
Data collection and analysis are essential parts of needs assessment. The following table
describes the most commonly used methods of data collection. TNA is optimized when a
combination of data collection methods is used to analyze quantitative and qualitative data.
Regardless of which methods are used to collect and analyze data, it is important to consider
the reliability, validity and trustworthiness of the data.
Based on the questionnaire for individual survey and guide question for group discussion
developed during the preparation stage (step 2), pre-test of the questionnaires should be
conducted with officials who will be the target population to see the applicability of the
questions. If tested interviewees seem to have any difficulty in answering those questions, it
should be noted those points and modified the questions to make it easier to answer. After
testing, the GDLA Task Force should revise and formulate the questionnaires based on the
results of the pre-test.
The following five steps are to be taken in conducting a group discussion:
1. Orientation on objectives and contents of the survey for interviewees;
2. Explaining questionnaires (individual survey);
3. Conducting a group discussion with a guide question;
4. Wrapping up the interview; and
5. Modifying methods, process and questionnaires if needed. A proto-typed cycle of
conducting a group discussion is shown the figure below. However, those cycle and
process can be modified according to a survey plan.
1. Measurement:
This is an organizational store review using a critical area checklist developed in
conjunction with your management and staff. It identifies what is happening now and
compares it with what should be happening and determines gaps using the store objectives,
performance standards and staff appraisals as the basis.
2. Investigation
Once performance gaps are identified from the measurement stage they are investigated to
gather more specific and detailed information. The investigation uses a combination of
methods that include:
Observation
Interviews
Performance appraisals
Questionnaire
Skill audits
The reason for an evaluation system is simple. The evaluations of training programs are
without a doubt the most important step in the training process. It is this step that will indicate
the effectiveness of both the training as well as the trainer.
There are several obvious benefits for evaluating a training program. First, evaluations will
provide feedback on the trainers performance, allowing them to improve themselves for
future programs. Second, evaluations will indicate its cost-effectiveness. Third, evaluations are
an efficient way to determine the overall effectiveness of the training program for the
employees as well as the organization.
The importance of the evaluation process after the training is critical. Without it, the trainer
does not have a true indication of the effectiveness of the training. Consider this information
the next time you need to evaluate your training program. You will be amazed with the results.
The need for training your employees has never been greater. As business and industry
continues to grow, more jobs will become created and available. Customer demands,
employee morale, employee productivity, and employee turnover as well as the current
economic realities of a highly competitive workforce are just some of the reasons for
establishing and implementing training in an organization. To be successful, all training must
receive support from the top management as well as from the middle and supervisory levels of
management. It is a team effort and must implement by all member s of the organization to be
fully successful.
Organizational Analysis
It involves a study of the entire organization. In terms of its objectives, it is resources,
resource allocation and utilization, growth potential and its environment. Its purpose it to
determine where training emphasis should be placed within the organization. Organizational
analysis consists of the following elements:
Analysis of objectives
Resource Utilization Analysis
Organization analysis
Environmental Scanning
Training Objectives:
Generally line manager ask the personnel manager to formulate the training policies.
The personnel Manager formulates the following training objectives in keeping with
companys goals and objective:
a. To prepare the employee both new and old to meet their present as well as the
changing requirements of the job and the organization.
b. To prevent obsolescence.
c. To prepare employees for higher-level tasks.
d. To assist employees function more effectively in there present positions by exposing
them to the latest concepts, information, and techniques and developing the skills they
will need in their particular fields.
e. To built up a second line of competent officers and prepare them to occupy more
responsible positions.
f. To develop the potentialities of people for the next level job.
g. To ensure smooth and efficient working of a department.
h. To ensure economical; output of required quality.
i. To promote individual and collective morale, a sense of responsibility, cooperative
attitudes and good relationships.
Classroom Training
Under this method, training is provided in company classrooms or in educational
institutions. Lectures, case studies, group discussions, and audio visual aids are used to
explain knowledge and skills to the trainees. Classroom training is suitable for teaching
concepts and programmes. Some companies maintain their own training institutes or schools.
Special training courses are designed e.g., management course for foremen, computer course
for typists, etc., Courses in retraining and upgrading may also be conducted. Small firms
depend on outside schools and courses.
Internship Training
It is a joint programme of training in which educational institutions and business firms
cooperate. Selected candidates carry on regular studies for the prescribed period. They also
work in some factory or office to acquire practical knowledge and skills. This method helps
to provide a good balance between theory and practice. However, it involves a long time due
to slow process. This method of training is used in professional work e.g. MBBS, CA,
ICWA, Company Secretaries, etc.
Departmental Analysis
Department strength and weakness including special problems of the department or a
common problem of a group of employees like acquiring skills and knowledge in operating
computer by accounting personnel.
Job / Role Analysis
This includes study of jobs/roles, design of jobs due to changes, job enlargement, etc.
Manpower Analysis
Individual strengths and weaknesses in the areas of job knowledge, skills etc.
Ist class employee Development
Ist class employees are the most valuable assets of any organization. The manager is
the dynamic life-giving element in the organization. The success and growth of organization
depends on caliber and performance of the Ist class employees. It is essential to train and
develop Ist class employees who can succeed the managers of today.
Concept of Ist class employee Development:
Ist class employee Development or management development is a systematic process
of learning and growth by which managerial personnel gain and apply knowledge, skills,
attitudes and efficiently. Ist class employees learn conceptual, theoretical knowledge and
managerial skills in an organized through an educational process. The main aim of formal
education for manager is to increase his ability to learn from experience.
Ist class employee development consists of all the means by which Ist class
employees learn to improve their behaviour and performance. It is designed to improve the
effectiveness of managers in their present jobs and to prepare them for higher job in future.
Ist class employee development is a planned and organized process of learning rather
than an accident or trial an error approach.
Ist class employee development is a long-term process, as managerial skills cannot be
developed overnight.
Ist class employee development aims at preparing managers for better performance
and helping them to realize their full potential.
Ist class employee development is guided self-development.
Objectives of Ist class employee Development:
Any programme of Ist class employee development aims at achieving the following ways
To improve the performance of managers at all levels in their present jobs.
To sustain good performance of managers throughout their careers by exploiting
they are full potential i.e., to prepare managers for higher jobs in future.
To prevent obsolescence of Ist class employees by exposing them to a latest
contests and techniques in their respective areas of specialization.
To replace elderly Ist class employees who have risen from the ranks by highly
competent and academically qualified professionals.
been achieved. Observation of the trainees behavior, rating of the training elements, opinion
surveys, interview, tests, and changes in productivity, quality, cost etc., can be used to
evaluate development programmes.
Methods and Techniques of Ist class employee Development:
It is of two types
i) one-the-job Techniques
ii) off-the-job Techniques
On-the-job Techniques:
It is divided into some groups.
Coaching:
In this method, the superior guides and instruct the trainee as a coach. The coach or
counselor sets mutually agreed upon goals, suggest how to achieve these goals, periodically
reviews the trainees progress and suggests changes required in behavior and performance.
Understudy:
An understudy is a person selected and being trained as the apparent to assume at a
future time the full duties and responsibilities of the position presently held by his superior. In
this way a fully trained person becomes available to replace a manager during his long
absence or illness, on this retirement, transfer, promotion, or death.
Position Rotation:
It involves movement or transfer of Ist class employees from one position or job to
another on some planned basis. Position rotation is also called job rotation. The aim is to
broaden the knowledge, skills, and outlook of Ist class employees. Job rotation or position
rotation is often designed for junior Ist class employees. It may continue for a period ranging
from six months to two years.
Project Assignment:
Under this method a number of trainee Ist class employees are put together to work on
a project directly related to their functional area. The group called project team or task force
will study the problem and find appropriate solution. This is a flexible training device due to
temporary nature of assignments.
Committee Assignment:
A permanent committee consisting of trainee Ist class employees is constituted. All
the trainees participate in the deliberations of the committee. Trough discussion in committee
meeting they are acquainted with different viewpoints and alternative methods of problem
solving. They also learn interpersonal skills.
Multiple Management:
Under it, a junior board of young Ist class employees is constituted. Major problems
are analyzed in the junior board, which makes recommendations to the Board of Directors.
The young Ist class employees learn decision making skills and the Board of Directors
received considerable exposure to problems and issues.
Selective Reading
Managing has become a specialized job requiring a close touch with the latest
developments in their field. By reading selected professional books and journals, mangers
can keep in touch with the latest research finding, theories, and techniques in management.
Lectures
These are formally organized talk by an instructor on specific topics. Lecture is
essential when technical or special information of a complex nature is to be provided. These
can be supplemented by discussions, case studies, demonstrations, audio visual aids, and film
shows. Lecture method is a simple way of imparting knowledge to a large number of persons
within a short time.
Lecture method can be made effective in the following ways:
i) A lecture should be well planned as to its purpose and contents
ii) The lecturer should be competent and a good speaker
iii) The lecture should not be for more than an hour.
iv) The lecture should be made interesting through leading questions, guided
discussions, and audio visual aids.
Group Discussions
It is a variant of the lecture method. Under it, paper is prepared and presented by one
or more trainees on the selected topic. This followed by a critical discussion. The chairman
of the discussion or seminar summarizes the contents of the paper and the discussion with the
related topics.
Conference Method
A conference is a meeting of several people to discuss the subject of common interest.
However, contribution from members can be expected as each one builds upon ideas of other
participants. This method is best suited when a problem has to be analyzed and examined
from different viewpoints. The success of the conference depends on the conference leader.

RESEARCH DESIGN
RESEARCH DESIGN
Research design is the specification of method and procedure for acquiring the
information needed to structure to solve the problems.
Research design is systematic gathering, recording and analyzing the data, which is use to
solve the problems.
The research Design is of Descriptive nature.
Descriptive research studies are those studies which are concerned with describing the
characteristics of a particular individual or a group. These are the studies concerned with
Specific predictions, with narration of facts and characteristics concerning individual, group
or situation. The design in such studies must be rigid and not flexible and must focus
attention on the following:
Formulating the objective of the study.
Designing the methods of data collection.
Selecting the sample.
Collecting the data.
Processing and analyzing the data.
Reporting the findings.
Training Need Assessment helps in optimizing the utilization of human resource that
further helps the employee to achieve the organizational goals as well as their individual goals.
It 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 and it also helps in increasing the productivity of the employees that helps the
organization further to achieve its long-term goal.
Training is very important for over all development of the employees for achieving
organizational objectives. When in MAY I joined Sasya Motors the process of identification
of training needs of all the staff and officers had started in the HR department and they wanted
suggestions for improvement and effectiveness.
REVIEW OF LITERATURE
Training Needs assessment is the first step in the instructional design process and as such
is an important process for performance improvement practitioners (Rossett, 1987), especially for
those for whom training is a primary function. Needs assessment is not just for training, however;
performance improvement practitioners identify and prioritize all types of performance gaps by
conducting a needs assessment (Kaufman, 1994; Rothwell & Kazanas, 2004). This leads to a
needs analysis to determine the cause of the performance problem and the appropriate solution
that will close the gap in performance, regardless of whether the solution is training (Kaufman,
1994).
Even though performance improvement practitioners generally accept needs assessment and
analysis as important first steps to solving performance problems (Rossett, 1997; Fulop, Loop-
Bartick, & Rossett, 1997), they do not always conduct needs assessments prior to implementing
performance improvement solutions. Sometimes organizational needs or constraints prevent the
use of a needs assessment or dictate the assessment method used in each situation. Generally, the
practitioner chooses his or her preferred method of conducting a needs assessment (Bemis,
Belenk~7, & Soder, 1983).
Since there is no one method of needs assessment to fit all situations, examining and
using more than one method for needs assessment may be confusing for practitioners new to
needs assessment (Cline & Seibert, 1993). There are multiple terms in needs assessment literature
to refer to the process.
Front-end analysis, training needs assessment, needs assessment, needs analysis, task
analysis, and job-task analysis are several terms used synonymously with needs assessment
(Rossett, 1987; Robbins, Doyle, Orandi, & Prokop, 1996). Most of these terms tend to have the
same meaning in that they all seek to determine performance needs. At times, practitioners
also consider the analysis of the cause of problems and the selection of a performance
improvement solution as part of the definition. With so many terms for needs assessment, it
becomes clear why new practitioners are confused when choosing a needs assessment
method. This study seeks to outline needs assessment methods and their appropriate
application for assessing and analyzing performance problems
Once a practitioner identifies a need, he or she determines if the need has enough
priority or impact to allocate resources for an analysis that will determine the root cause of
the performance problem. Based on the root cause, the practitioner designs a solution to close
the performance gap (Nolan, 1996). Confusion and disagreement regarding assessment and
analysis terms is a common occurrence in the needs assessment literature.
Authors use the terms needs assessment and analysis interchangeably to mean one or
both of the definitions presented in the Definition o/Terms. This may stem from the fact that
both assessment and analysis are vital to the design of performance improvement solutions
that work.
Once the root cause of a performance gap is determined, the solution mayor may not
include training or instruction. If the solution is training, the instructional objectives derive
from the organizational, operational, and/or individual needs identified in the assessment
(Rothwell, 1984). At times, the term training needs assessment is described as needs
assessment, but according to Watkins and Kaufman (1996), ifthe solution is training there is
no need to do an assessment or analysis. A training needs assessment is more accurately
described as a training requirements assessment that may follow a needs assessment and
needs analysis. Despite this, many organizations conduct a training needs assessment and
implement a training solution prior to conducting a needs assessment in the hope that
performance problems will disappear (Renard and Sinnock, 1990). Without a needs
assessment, however, there is no guarantee that the training solution will solve the
performance problem. Resources, time, energy, and learner goodwill may be depleted while
the performance problem persists
Needs assessment is an important first step for identifying and analyzing performance
problems (Rossett, 1997; Fulop et aI., 1997), but practitioners do not always conduct a needs
assessment. Understanding needs assessment methods and theirapplication is one barrier to
conducting a needs assessment and analysis. This literature review aims to compile needs
assessment methods and their recommended use to serve as an aid for performance
improvement practitioners.
Training is still a major focus in needs assessment literature, but there is a move toward
analysis of performance and all the possible variables for improvement. This change requires
a change in assessment and analysis methods. Most needs assessment and analysis methods
do not analyze organizational culture or environmental factors that may lead to solutions
other than training. The focus is primarily on the individual performer and the tasks
performed. More needs assessment and analysis methods are needed that include assessment
and analysis of the organization and environment as factors for performance improvement.
Existing needs assessment and analysis methods may also be revised to include a more
comprehensive view of performance and the factors that influence performance.
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
DATA COLLECTION:
Data can be collected through primary or secondary or by both primary and secondary
sources.
Primary Data
Primary data consists of original first hand information collected specially for the purpose of
study. Data can be collected by primary sources by using consumer surveys. I n this type of
information person could himself collected the data by personal interview or questionnaires
or other things.
In this report the primary data is collected through Questionnaire and Personal interview.
Secondary Data
Secondary data consists of information that already exists somewhere, having been collected
for another purpose.
In this Project report the secondary data is used for track past performance of Sasya Motors.
1) Internet
2) Information from the manager at Sasya Motors.
SAMPLING TECHNIQUES
In this survey Stratified sampling method is used.
A method of sampling that involves the division of a population into smaller groups known
as strata. In stratified random sampling, the strata are formed based on members' shared
attributes or characteristics. A random sample from each stratum is taken in a number
proportional to the stratum's size when compared to the population. These subsets of the
strata are then pooled to form a random sample.
SAMPLING UNIT:
Sampling unit refers to eligible individual respondent for the project.
In my study the sampling unit is Staff and employees of Sasya Motors, Kurnool.
SAMPLING SIZE:
Sampling size refers to total number of respondents targeted for collecting the data for the
research. Out of total population the sample of 50 respondents is taken in my study.

INDUSTRY PROFILE
INDUSTRY PROFILE
HISTORY OF THE TWO WHEELERS:
The Britannica Encyclopedia a motorcycle as a bike or tricycle propelled by an
internal combustion engine (or, less often by an electric engine). The automobile was the
reply to the 19th century reams of self-propelling the horse-drawn carriage. Similarly, the
invention of the motorcycle created the self propelling bicycle. The first commercial design
was three-wheeler built by Edward Butler in Great Britain in 1884. This employed a
horizontal single-cylinder gasoline engine mounted between two steer able front wheels and
connected by a drive chain to the rear wheel. The 1900s saw the conversion of many bicycles
or pedal cycles by adding small, centrally mounted spark ignition engine engines. There was
then felt the need for reliable constructions. This led to road trial tests and competition
between manufacturers. Tourist Trophy (TT) races were held on the Isle of main in 1907 as
reliability or endurance races. Such were the proving ground for many new ideas from early
two-stroke-cycle designs to supercharged multivalent engines mounted on aerodynamic,
carbon fiber reinforced bodywork.
INVENTION OF TWO WHEELERS:
The invention of two wheelers is a much-debated issue. Who invented the first
motorcycle? May seem like a simple question, safety, bicycle, i.e., bicycle with front and
rear wheels of the same size, with a pedal crank mechanism to drive the rear wheel. Those
bicycles in turn described from high-wheel bicycles. The high wheelers descended from an
early type of pushbike, without pedals, propelled by the riders feet pushing against the
ground. These appeared around 1800, used iron banded wagon wheels, and were called
bone-crushers, both for their jarring ride, and their tendency to toss their riders. Gottiieb
Daimler (who credited with the building the first motorcycle in 1885, one wheel in the front
and one in the back, although it had a smaller spring-loaded outrigger wheel on each side. It
was constructed mostly of wood, the wheels were of the iron-banded wooden-spooked
wagon-type and it definitely had a bone-crusher chassis!
FURTHER DEVELOPMENTS:
Most of the developments during the early phase concentrated on three and four-
wheeled design since it was complex enough to get the machines running with out having to
worry about them falling over. The next notable two-wheeler though was the Hildebrand &
Wolf Mueller, patented in Munich in 1894. In 1895, the French firm of DeDion-button built
and engine that was to make the mass production and common use of motorcycle possible.
The first motorcycle with electric start and a fully modem electrical system; the Hence
special from the Indian Motorcycle Company astounded the industry in 1931. Before World
War 1, IMC was the largest motorcycle manufacturer in the world producing over 20000
bikes per year.
INCREASING POPULARITY:
The popularity of the vehicle grew especially after 1910, in 1916; the Indian
motorcycle company introduced the model H racer, and placed it on sale. During World War
1, all branches of the armed forces in Europe used motorcycles principally for dispatching.
After the war, it enjoyed a sport vogue until the Great Depression began in motorcycles lasted
into the late 20th century; weight the vehicle being used for high-speed touring and sport
competitions. The more sophisticated of a 125cc model. Since then, an increasing number of
powerful bikes have blazed the roads.
HISTORICAL INDUSTRY DEVELOPMENTS:
Indian is the second largest manufacturer and producer to two wheelers in the World.
It stands next only to Japan and China in terms of the number of V produced and domestic
sales respectively. This destination was achieved due to variety of reason like restrictive
policy followed by the government of India towards the passenger car industry, rising
demand for personal transport, inefficiency in the public transportation system etc. The
Indian two-wheelers industry made a small beginning in the early 50s when Automobile
products of India (API) started manufacturing scooters in the country. Until 1958, API and
Enfield were the sole producers.
The two wheelers market was opened were opened to foreign competition in the
mid-80s. And the then market leaders-Escorts and Enfield were caught unaware by the
onslaught of the 100cc bikes of the four Indo- Japanese joint ventures. With the availability
of fuel-efficiency low power bikes, demand swelled, resulting in HERO then the only
producer of four stroke bikes (100cc category), gaining a top slot.
The first Japanese motorcycles were introduced in the early eighties. TVS Suzuki and
HERO brought in the first two-stroke and four-stroke engine motorcycles respectively.
These two players initially started with assembly of CKD Kits, and later on progressed to
indigenous manufacturing.
The industry had a smooth ride in the 50s, 60s and 70s when government prohibited
new entries and strictly controlled capacity expansion. The industry saw a sudden growth in
the 80s. The industry witnessed a steady of 14% leading to a peak volume of 1.9 mn vehicles
in 1990.
In 1990 the entire automobile industry saw a drastic fall in demand. This resulted in a
decline of 15% in 1991 and 8% in 1992, resulting in a production loss of 0.4mn vehicles.
Barring HERO, all the major producers suffered from recession in FY93 and FY94. HERO
showed a marginal decline in 1992.
The reason for recession in the sector were the incessant rise in fuel prices, high input
costs and reduced purchasing power due to significant like increased production in 1992, due
to new entrants coupled with recession in the industry resulted in companies either reporting
losses or a fall in profits.
GROWTH OF TWO WHEELER INDUSTRY DURING THE LAST DECADE:
The two-wheelers market has had a perceptible shift from a buyers market to a sellers
market with a variety of choice, players will have compete on various fronts viz. pricing,
technology product design, productivity after sale service, marketing and distribution. In the
short term, market shares of individual manufacturers are going to be sensitive to capacity,
product acceptance, pricing and competitive pressures from other manufacturers.
As incomes grow and people grow and people feel the need to own a private means of
transport, sales of two-wheelers will rise. Penetration is expected to increase to
approximately to more than 25% by 2005.
The motorcycle segment will continue to lead the demand for two-wheelers in the
coming years. Motorcycle sale was increased by 20% yoy as compared to 1% growth in the
scooter market and 3% by moped sales respectively during the previous two years.
The four-stroke scooters has added new dimension to the two-wheeler segment in the past
years.

MOTIVATION PHILOSOPHY IN HERO
HERO recognizes that employees are the most important resource of any
organization. In the modern world, the human factor alone can provide a competitive edge to
any organization. As one author remarks Some of the best assets walk into and outside the
organization everyday.

potential for growth and development that can be converted into performance by investment
of time and effort by management at all levels. In HERO Human Resource
Management is identified as a key area providing the cutting edge to the organization in its

organization and the needs of the individual employees.
The need to recognize the fact that HRD attempts must be incorporated into the basic

The need to ensure that training is a proactive process, which must be designed taking
into consideration future changes in the environment, the business, and the
competition and customer expectations.

more efficient and effective in discharging their duties.
To aim at attitudinal changes required making the employee more conscious of his
role as a representative of the organization.
To provide avenues for the growth and development of the individual through
actualization of inherent potentialities.
TRAINING PERIOD
The duration of training varies with skill to be acquired, the complexity of the subject,
a trainees aptitude and ability to understand, and the training media used.
Generally, a training period should not be unduly long: if it is, trainees may feel bore
uninterested. The ideal session should not go beyond 2 to 3 hours at stretch, with a break in
between 2 sessions. It convenient employees may be trained for a week or a fortnight for an
hour or two, every day after work hours.
The training period may extend from 3 weeks to 5 months even more, depending
upon job requirements.
IMPLEMENTATION OF TRAINING
Once the training programmes have been designed, it needs to be implemented.
Implementation is beset with certain problems. Firstly, most managers are action oriented
and frequently say no to training efforts. Secondly, there is problem of location suitable
METHODS OF EVALUATION
Several methods can be employed to collect data on the outcomes of training. Some
of these are:
1. The opinions and judgments of trainers, superiors, and peers.
2. Asking the trainers to fill up evaluation forms.
3. Using a questionnaire to know the reactions of trainees,
4. Giving oral and written tests to trainees to ascertain how far they have learnt,
5. Arranging structured interviews with the trainees,
6. Comparing trainees performance on the job before and after training.
7. Studying profiles and career development charts of trainees,
8. Measuring levels of productivity, wages, costs, absenteeisms and employee turnover
after training.
9. Trainees comments and reactions during the training period, and Cost benefit analysis
of training programme.
FEEDBACK
After the evaluation, the situation should be analysed to identify the possible causes
for difference between the expected outcomes and the actual outcomes. The precautions
should be taken in designing and implementing future training programme so as to avoid
these causes. The outcomes of training programme should justify the time, money, and
efforts invested by the organization in training. Information collected during evaluation
should be provided to the trainees and the trainers as well as to others concerned with the
designing and implementation of training programmes. Follow-up action is required to
ensure implementation of evaluation report at every stage.
