"Many Indian companies have increased their emphasis on training tremendously. I think it is absolutely essential to spend a lot of money on training and continuous improvement. In our group every employee has to undergo at least five days of training a year." - Adi Godrej, Chairman Godrej Group.1 Introduction
Parivartan2 was launched in September 2000 in GSL to train new as well as
existing employees on various aspects of the business and to motivate them.
In 2001, new initiatives like Young Entrepreneurs Board (YEB), Red and Blue
Teams, Mentoring and Reverse Mentoring were introduced in the Godrej Group,
(Godrej) to encourage the involvement of youth in strategic decision-making.
In January 2003, a special HR programme on honing the interpersonal and negotiation skills of officer- level employees was launched in GIL. Further, in October 2003, an English language training programme was held for floor workers of Godrej and Boyce Manufacturing Company Ltd (GBML), so that they could follow all instructions issued in that language independently.
