Is Learning different than other HR Disciplines?
Learning and development as a discipline is usually clubbed under HR in most organizations. However,management training is essentially a very different aspect and one which should be kept separate. HR is a broader field which looks into staff welfare, reduction of attrition levels, increased motivation levels and proper recruitment practices. While these are crucial aspects for any business, these do not generate immediate monetary value to the organization. Training and development on the other hand has direct linkage with sales targets, cost reductions and improved quality.
