RESEARCH PROPOSALResearch BackgroundFirms aim to raise performance in order to compete with competitors, but it is notpossible without having skilled employees in the organization. Improvement in capabilities ofworkforce and their knowledge can support in gaining competitive advantage to the entity(Szegedy and et.al, 2017). Tahir and et.al. (2014) defined Training and development “as theplanned learning experiences that teach employees how to perform current and future jobs”(p.87) This definition demonstrates that the ability of employees are built to ensure that theymeet a certain expected standard that will see them perform in the workplace. They also arguedthat By organizing training and development program at the workplace, firms try to fill gap inbetween skills required and current abilities of an individual (Tahir and et.al., 2014). This research uses a case study of Tesco which is the multinational retail firm. It isoperating its business in more than 12 countries and having more than 6553 stores. It hasemployed approx. 476000 employees across the world. All its employees are skilled and havingnecessary education that is required to perform their duties (tescoplc.com, 2017). Main aim ofthe dissertation is to identify effectiveness of training and development programs in improvingperformance of staff members. Furthermore, it will describe various methods of training anddevelopment that can support in raising the skills of an individual at workplace. The relationshipbetween training and employee's performance will be analysed in this study (Xu, Zhong andWang, 2013). Research ProblemTesco is operating its business in the retail sector; it has a strong supermarket chain.Tesco has made commitment for improving knowledge and skills of its workforce. It hasannounced that company will introduce apprenticeship programme in order to train its 3000existing staff. It has included IT training for its workers in order to improve their IT skills. Forrunning business smoothly, it is essential to have reliable, efficient workers those who canperform their duties well. Currently, staff members of Tesco are making mistakes whileperforming their responsibilities. Cormier and Hagman, (2014) has stated that if company doesnot provide quality products to consumers then it may get failed to meet with its objectives. Due1
to these mistakes, company fails to provide quality products and services to its valuableconsumers.Managers of most of the companies ignore significance of training and development.Success or failure of an organization is much more dependent upon the skills and abilities of anindividual. If employee does not have necessary skills then individual cannot perform well in thecorporation (Saks and Gruman, 2014). Training and development not only enhances theperformance of staff members but also give more profit to entity. But due to ignorance of thiselement, job turnover is increasing in Tesco which affects its productivity. This study willconcentrate on all these components in order to minimize the gap between skills required for joband current knowledge of an individual so that performance of workers can be improved (Kokand et.al, 2014).
