Impact of Training and Development on Perceived Employee Performance: A Case Study of Agricultural Development Bank Ltd

Abstract

Ltd of Nepal. Based on the survey method, the study collected the data through a structured questionnaire administered from February to March of 2018 on a sample of 112 employees (hierarchical strata of junior and assistants, and junior officers) drawn from a population of 185 through a random, stratified sampling method. Using descriptive statistics and regression analysis, the study discovered a statistically significant impact of T&D constituents on the perceived performance of junior officers and assistant level employees of the studied bank. Among the four predictors (T&D constituents), the impact of attitude and behavior change was found to be significant whereas that of other three (training content and deliverability, instructional design, and skills, knowledge and ability development of employees) was not significant. What ensues from the data results is that the ADBL management needs to ensure training contents, deliverability and instructional design to enhance competency and productivity of employee. Furthermore, the ADBL management needs to ensure that T&D strategies bring about positive change on attitude and behavior to enhance their HR performance.
