Abstract:
The paper examined the impacts of staff training and development on the organizational performance and productivity using Akwa Ibom State Ministry of Finance as a focus point. This paper maintained that in spite of some outstanding efforts by government through various interventions and programmes directed towards effective staff training in Nigeria, the Nigerian public sector’s score-card (especially the Nigerian Civil Service), has remained poor and inefficient due to shortage of skilled manpower, lack of adequate fund and facilities needed for effective staff training and development. The study adopted Historical and Descriptive research methods and data were collected using secondary sources. The population of the study was drawn from Akwa Ibom State Ministry of Finance. The major findings of the study revealed among others that: poor staff training and development lead to poor organizational productivity. The study also revealed that for any organization to grow and attained its objectives and goals, staffs training and development should be viewed with serious attention. This is because untrained employee’s in organization tends to debilitate employee’s performance which in turned affect organization productivities negatively. Based on the major findings, the paper recommended among others that Seminars, workshops, and regular conferences etc. should be organized promptly for all staffs of Akwa Ibom Ministry of Finance in order to equip them with modern techniques, skills towards actualizing the present and future needs of the organization. The paper also recommended that method and manners of selecting staffs for training and development should not be based on nepotism, favouratism as well as clientelism, but rather based on merit. This implies that those qualified and due for training should be given ultimate consideration and opportunity to do so if the organization wish to attained their set goals and objectives
