Back to Links The challenge is to increase the manpower pool The Head Corporate Development, Cmrdgroup said, manpower is one of the key elements of growth or key elements of the company. Any transaction we do, any company we evaluate, at least 50% of the value of the company is derived from the manpower, most people term it as company cost, we term it as values. With the people in place, the management is in place to take up any challenge at each level giving due importance to recruitment, training, continuous improvement, motivation, motivational plans, entire gamut of activities are looked into which play a key role in any transaction. VP and Head HR said that it is not to have a crowd but a profile of people for whom excitement maters and who want to look forward to get a job, they want to happy with discipline security delivery quality. EVP training said the fact that we have a lot of people out there who are wiling to work in our industry. They come to work in the industry that they seem to have extremely high growth. In the past 27 years we have recruited about 5000 people after screening around about a hundred thousand people. One of the key challenges is actually the current education system in India. China has come into existence long before and they have really done something. Head HR practices the first issue that the industry faces is how we keep get the hundred thousand people if the selection has to be 5 percent. How to increase the pool to something 8 percent is one dimension which is a big challenge to the industry as a whole. The second huge issue is the large amount of attrition. Director HR Services said that one thing we are practicing every day is to keep a smile on the face and have loads of patience. When we are talking about quality, we are talking about the quality of resources, and the resources that are responsible for recruitment, training, how much of time we devote towards their training, towards recruitment, towards their career development because that is the biggest challenge. The second is the security of the employees within the organization. When we came to India we did not have a vast pool of human resources that we could depend upon. So what did we have to do? We went in and we established what makes the best skillset from that we can't then build upon." How did we get this fresh clay. We know that we have a highly educated work force with good English speaking capabilities. I think the first thing to look at is really the cross cultural challenge. Because you are servicing a market that has expectations that are here but then you have a human resource pool that again is in its infancy of maturity. So how do we match that very raw immature human resource with a global expectation? What are the qualifications to get into this industry? So our aim is to attract the freshers coming out of college and convert them into existing professionals from other industries. India may be number two in the world in terms of overall population but of that population how many of those people are really employable in this market, how many of them are qualified to compete in this market at both an entry level, mid level, and an advanced level. Demand is right now trending to really outweigh or grow much farther than the existing capacity. Co-founder and VP said that we are creating a highly motivated, challenging environment and give career path to our people that will take care of long-term attrition, creating processes that deliver to us highly challenged motivated people with the cultural sensitivity so that we deliver quality at the end of the day. It is simple things or little things that make a big difference. So probably the challenge is to do little things but do with utmost passion and make sure it creates a major impact on the organization. First challenge is getting into a new process as if you are an expert even though you may not have the required quality people. The second, challenge is the ramp up that is required and the challenge is to get the right kind of people. Our aim thus becomes that we should have empowered employees. So that he does not have to wait for instructions; he should have the empowerment to carry on with his work with needs to be done on a day to day basis and for that we need to enable him with all the analytical tools and any other skills that are required. The challenge is actually to keep our employees to look at employment as an opportunity to savour. At an individual level nobody says that they are not talented. At an individual level it has to have that amount of compassion to be able to say that I can plug the holes in the organization. If the employee aspiration is something which as an organization I do not expect that I will be able to meet in a reasonable period of time then it is better to let that employee go rather than retain him and create problem for the rest of the workforce. Aspirations differ from individual to individual. Some are content doing eight hour job and do it year after year and want to move to another process to be content doing that.
