    Peoples in the world usually dislike getting change. They try to complete their work as per their existing knowledge. So that is the reason for the difficulty to develop the human resource. Their religion, family backgrounds, their habits, and their culture, education background, etc struggle with their minds.

    People and personal development is a very important factor. Or they will be lost in the rapidly evolving world of technological knowledge as they go to work with their existing knowledge. It affects the short-term as well as long term growth of the organization.

    As you mentioned, Human resource development is currently seen as a critical strategic method to increasing productivity, efficiency, and profitability. Performance management and appraisal, as well as human resource planning, are encouraged. Human resource development helps to enhanced productivity by developing the competencies of the workforce.

    As you mentioned, Human Resource Development (HRD) is the framework for helping employees develop their personal and organizational skills, knowledge, and abilities.
    External factors influencing human resource management are economic, socio-cultural, technical, political-legal, and professional association. These factors have different effects on human resource management. Human resource development contributes to increased productivity and contributes to building manpower capabilities. Human resource policy should take into account the aspirations and needs of individuals as well as the importance of increasing employment both inside and outside the organization.

    There are two types of environmental factors in human resource management: external and internal. External factors, such as human resource management, are all parts that exist outside of an organisation and impact its operations. All internal elements that impact human resource management are referred to as "internal factors."
    Economic, socio-cultural, technical, political-legal, and trade association factors all have an effect on human resource management. These variables have a variety of effects on the management of human resources.
    Internal variables impact human resource management techniques within the firm. Human resource management in an organisation operates within the context of the organization's larger vision.
    Affected business aspects give an overall view of the operation of human resource management, the most important of which are the organization's strategy, workplace culture, labour unions, and economic standing.

    Human resource development (HRD) is the backbone of the HR department’s function in organizations as it provides the structure to help HR to augment their knowledge, abilities, and organizational skills. HRD also develops the key competencies that allow employees in organizations to perform current and future projects through planned learning activities.However, several elements such as lack of finances, organizational policies, poor employee evaluation, poor change management and leadership, lack of planning, conflicts, and disputes undermine the effectiveness of the development of the workforce in organizations.

HRD Evaluation Model

Donald Kirkpatrick has developed a very popular evaluation model that has been used since the late 1950s by the training community. The focus is on measuring four kinds of outcomes that should result from a highly effective training program' Perhaps the best-known evaluation methodology for judging learning processes is Donald Kirkpatrick’s Four Level Evaluation Model which was first published in a series of articles in 1959 in the Journal of American Society of Training Directors (now known as T + D Magazine). The series was later compiled and published as an article, “ Techniques for Evaluating Training Programs”, in a book Kirkpatrick edited, “ Evaluating Training Programs” (1975). However, it was not until his 1994 book was published, Evaluating Training programs, that the four levels became popular. Nowadays" his four levels remain a cornerstone in the learning industry. Kirkpatrick's model includes four levels or steps of outcome evaluation : ·   Level 1 Evaluation –...
