| contents | <p>This paper presents the results of an empirical investigation of 78 human resource managers employed in 78 wholly foreign owned, foreign and local joint venture and wholly local owned export-oriented clothing manufacturing companies in Sri Lanka. The study investigated human resource managers’ views on whether organisations identify development needs of managers, and if so, from what sources. The findings of the study shed light on the identification of management development needs and on differences across companies of different ownership. The data revealed evidence of the existence of the identification of development needs of managers in the industry. Organisational strategies, succession plans and performance appraisal give rise to identify development needs of managers, other than requests from both heads of divisions/immediate superior managers who like their subordinates to be developed and managers themselves who desire to develop. Further, the results of the analysis of variance revealed that in certain aspects there are significant differences in the identification of development needs of managers. The results and implications of the findings are discussed.</p> |
