HRD is concerned with the development of employees on the one hand and optimum utilization of these existing human resources on the other hand. Today, there are high expectations from HRD. Good HRD requires well-structured function, appropriately identified HRD systems, and competent staff to implement and facilitate the change process. Development is the soul of human resource management function, which affects the organization's effectiveness. HRD in a growing economy like India is the need of the time. It demands a specific and congenial climate to take root. It enriches the work life in an organization and aims to link productivity with a sense of personal fulfilment. Various studies have been conducted on HRD Climate, be it at a micro or macro level. Some have studied organization climate while some have laid stress on culture of the organizations.
