In the current competitive business environment, the demand of organisations compels Indian Industries to rethink their vision and mission about human resource development (HRD) practices through training and development. Changes are inevitable anywhere i.e. in our personal life, social life, work life, in nature, in society, in universe etc. We cannot avoid changes, but we can adjust and adapt to such changes for betterment through training and development. Today's industries are moving towards globalisation, and this process is characterised by intense competition, technological innovations, consumer satisfaction, competitive advantages etc. Here, the human resource provides impetus training and development to deal with such competitive and complex situations in the business world. In this day and age, organisations are forced to thrive on the cutting edge competition using the most appropriate technology. For this, managing HR is more effectively through appropriate training to the organisational workforce. Training might thus mean showing a machinist how to operate his new machine; a new sales person, how to sell his firm's product; or a new supervisor how to interview and appraise employees. For analysing the existing training and development programme of private sector organisation and employees' attitude, we have conducted an empirical study on 'employees' attitude towards training and development' in private sector manufacturing and business organisations. Based on this research, we have come to certain conclusions about employees' mindset towards training and development in private sector organisations.
