Executive Development in Bangladesh: A Conceptual Framework

Abstract

In view of the importance of developing executives’ skills for organizations in both developed and developing nations, this study addresses how organizations help develop and effectively utilize their members, especially in the executive cadre. The paper discusses the various dimensions of executive training and development as applicable to organizations in Bangladesh. The theoretical framework of this study has been generated from the literature review on executive development and centers around four issues such as (a) distinctive skills that executives require, (b) learning tools and methodologies needed for their development, (c) a favorable corporate culture, and (d) availability of facilities for learning. The study found that facilities for executive training and development are still modest in Bangladesh and has remained virtually dormant, especially with the universities. To the extent that universities offered training facilities for the executives of sector corporations and the corporations instituted a culture of training for their members geared at skills development, the excellence for executive training and education was achieved. The study implies that there is no one program of developing the skills of executives which could be adopted by all. In fact each plan would have to be tailored to suit the specific needs of a particular company.
