Majority of its employees are Chartered Accountants and CPAs. The company has ambitious plans

for expansion in view of boom in consultancy industry consequent upon globalization. Company’s

policy is promoting within and therefore most of its senior level employees are promoted from entry-

level accountants. In view of its promotion policy, the company invests heavily on training of

employees in the form of development of in-house educational and training facilities. Most of its

employees receive training at frequent intervals in the company’s training colleges.

Majority of training investment of the company is on technical and procedural training

for entry- level accountants in the areas of accounting, finance, tax, auditing, project reports and

report writing. However, KPMG has problems in attracting dynamic and energetic young

attracting dynamic and energetic young graduates from the colleges and universities, This

situation, sometimes, discourages clients to continue with KPMG in case of existing clients and

approaching KPMG in case of new clients. This situation to some extent is due to the ‘fast – in,

fast –out style of big-time consulting Employees of the company gradually learn to interpret the

subtleties of clients needs and sometimes employees have been let go due to the absence of

interpersonal skills.

The training colleges of the company, therefore suggested to provide training in

interpersonal skills. But the line managers point out that the company has conducted training in

client and customer relations, just two years back. They added that there is no improvement in

customer relations and the return on money spent on training can’t be justified. The senior

managers of the company feel that much investment in training is unnecessary as some of the

trained employees join other organizations.

However, most of the managers feel that investment in training is essential, but the

dilemma is that which part of the skill should receive more attention and investment.

Questions:

1. Will training correct the problem of interpersonal relations?

2. Is training cost effective?

3. Is KPMG provide the right knowledge and skill?
