TRAINING PROBLEMATIC

Change management is a major challenge to leaders, who are called upon to put into place new methods of Human Resources management. Are they conscious in this context of globalisation ?

At the last seminar in August 2002 in Kribi - Cameroon on Human Resources Management, participants (from Cameroon, Chad, Gabon, Niger and the Democratic Republic of Congo) confirmed the observations of the experts in organisation Development of AGESFO Consultancy on the main problems in Human Resources Management and the functioning of teams (groups), notably;

- The absence of a common vision among members of the team ;
- The ignorance of the organisation by the principal heads ;
- The difficulty of the organisation to adapt to change or to put into place a procedure for change ;
- A type of Leadership that does not always facilitate productivity ;
- The absence of clearly defined roles and responsibilities among members of the team ;
- The centralisation of powers having as a consequence the poor utilisation of Human Resources ;
- The absence of a communication system which encourages creativity ;
- The absence of evaluation tools and a Human Resources motivation policy ;
- The poor organisation of managers which leads to stress ;
