Traditional approach
Modern approach
Two approaches of T and D
TRADITIONAL AND MODERN APPROACH OF TRAINING
AND DEVLOPMENT
Traditional Approach – Most of the organizations
before never used to believe in training. They were
holding the traditional view that managers are born
and not made. There were also some views that
training is a very costly affair and not worth.
 Modern approach-
Training is now considered as more of retention
tool than a cost. The training system in Indian
Industry has been changed to create a smarter
workforce and yield the best results.
Methods of Training
COGNITIVE METHODS
BEHAVIORAL METHODS
CONTD…
COGNITIVE METHODS
Cognitive methods are more of giving theoretical
training to the trainees.
Methods that come under Cognitive approach
 LECTURES
 DEMONSTRATIONS
 DISCUSSIONS
 COMPUTER BASED TRAINING (CBT)
LECTURES
This method is used to create understanding of a topic
or to influence behavior, attitudes through lecture.
A lecture can be in printed or oral form.
Lecture is given to enhance the knowledge of listener or to
give him the theoretical aspect of a topic.
Demonstration
This method is a visual display of how something
works or how to do something.
Example, trainer shows the trainees how to perform
or how to do the tasks of the job.
Discussion method
This method uses a lecturer to provide the learners with
context that is supported, elaborated, explains, or
expanded on through interactions both among the
trainees and between the trainer and the trainees.
Discussion method is a two-way flow of communication
knowledge in the form of lecture is communicated to
trainees
Then understanding is conveyed back by trainees to
trainer.
Cbt training
Providing training to employees through Intranet
or Internet.
CBT does not require face-to-face interaction with a
human trainer.
BENEFITS OF CBT
BEHAVIORAL METHODS
Behavioral methods are more of giving practical training
to the trainees
The various methods in this allows the trainee to behavior
in a real fashion
These methods are best used for skill development.
Methods that come under Behavioural approach
GAMES AND SIMULTATIONS
Game is defined as spirited activity or exercise in which
trainees compete with each other according to the defined
set of rules.
Simulation is creating computer versions of real-life
games.
It is about imitating or making judgment on how events
might occur in a real situation.
Business games
These are based on the set of rules, procedures,
plans.
In business games, trainees are given some
information that describes a particular situation
and are then asked to make decisions that will best
suit in the favour of the company.
Role plays
Role play is a simulation in which each participant is given a
role to play.
Information is given to Trainees related to:
description of the role
concerns
objectives
responsibilities
emotions, etc.
Contd…
Then, a general description of the situation, and the
problem that each one of them faces, is given.example,
Situation could be strike in factory,
Managing conflict between two parties
 Scheduling vacation days, etc.
In basket techniques
In this technique, trainee is given some information about the
role to be played such as, description, responsibilities, general
context about the role.
The trainee is then given the log of materials that make up the
in-basket and asked to respond to materials within a particular
time period.
After all the trainees complete in-basket, a discussion with the
trainer takes place.
Equipment simulators can be used in giving training to:
Taxi Drivers
Telephone Operators
Maintenance Workers
Product Development Engineers
Airline Pilots
CASE STUDY
The trainee is given with some written material, and the
some complex situations of a real or imaginary
organization.
DEVELOPMENT
The more future oriented method and more
concerned with education of the employees. To
become a better performer by education implies
that management development activities attempt to
install sound reasoning processes.
Two parts of development
ON THE JOB TRAINING
OFF THE JOB TRAINING
ON JOB TRAINING
The development of a manager’s abilities can take place on the
job. The four techniques for on-the job development are:
COACHING
MENTORING
JOB ROTATION
JOB INSTRUCTION TECHNIQUE (JIT)
COACHING
Coaching is one of the training methods, which is
considered as a corrective method for inadequate
performance.
Coaching is the best training plan
It is one-to-one interaction
It can be done on phone, meetings, through mails,
chat etc.
Mentoring
Mentoring is an ongoing relationship that is developed
between a senior and junior employee.
Mentoring provides guidance and clear understanding of
how the organization goes to achieve its vision and
mission to the junior employee.
Job Rotation
This approach allows the manger to operate in diverse
roles and understand the different issues that crop up.
It is the process of preparing employees at a lower level to
replace someone at the next higher level.
Job Instruction Technique(JIT)
Job Instruction Technique (JIT) uses a strategy with focus
on knowledge (factual and procedural), skills and attitudes
development.
OFF THE JOB TRAINING –
There are many management development techniques
that an employee can take in off the job. The few popular
methods are:
SENSITIVITY TRAINING
TRANSACTIONAL ANALYSIS
STRAIGHT LECTURES/ LECTURES
SIMULATION EXERCISES
Sensitivity Training
Sensitivity training is about making people
understand about themselves and others reasonably,
which is done by developing in them social sensitivity
and behavioural flexibility.
Transactional Analysis
Transactional Analysis provides trainees with a
realistic and useful method for Analysing and
understanding the behavior of others.
In every social interaction, there is a motivation
provided by one person and a reaction to that
motivation given by another person. This
motivation-reaction relationship between two
persons is a transaction.
Lecture – A Method of Training
Lecture is given to enhance the knowledge of listener or to
give him the theoretical aspect of a topic.
Training is basically incomplete without lecture.
Training For Special Purposes
Global business training samples include:
Executive etiquette for global transactions
Cross-cultural technology transfer
International protocol and presentation
Business basics for the foreign executive
Language training
Training For Special Purposes
Diversity training
Better cross-cultural sensitivity
Results examples:
Improving technical skills
Socialization
Distance and internet based training
Distance training
Teletraining
Videoconferencing
Internet based Training
The virtual Classroom-uses special collaboration software
to enable multiple remote learners,using their PCs or
laptops to participate in live audio and visual
discussions ,communicate via written text and learn via
content such as Power point slides.

Introduction
Effective training practices involve the use of an
instructional systems design process.
The instructional systems design process begins by
conducting a needs assessment.
The example of Texas Instruments shows, before you
choose a training methods, it is important to determine
whether training is necessary.
3 - 46
Needs Assessment
Refers to the process used to determine if training is
necessary.
Because needs assessment is the first step in the
instructional design process:
If it is poorly conducted, training will not achieve the
outcomes or financial benefits the company expects.

Editor's Notes

  • #6 Page 185 At a minimum, new employees usually receive either printed or Internet-based employee handbooks. These explain things like working hours, performance reviews, getting on the payroll, and vacations. Under certain conditions, the courts may find that your employee handbook’s contents represent legally binding Don’t underestimate orientation’s importance. Without basic information on things like rules and policies, new employees may make time-consuming or even dangerous errors. Their performance—and the firm’s—will suffer. Furthermore, orientation is not just about rules.
