Training, Development, and Performance Enhancement in Universities: An Analytical Study

Abstract

This study looked into the effects of managerial attitude, organizational culture, personal challenges, training, and employee development on the performance of employees in the university sector. The study indicated that the training programme aimed at employees would enhance organization performance when there is appropriate managerial and supervisor support. A sample of 140 university employees was surveyed in a quantitative study. Data were analyzed by the SPSS statistical package (version 20) employing regression analysis, correlation and reliability analysis. Of all the variables considered, managerial attitude, organizational culture, personal challenges and training programmes were significantly predictors of employee performance. The study suggested the universities adopt a more productive approach in training and managerial philosophy.
