Dhanaraj T informs that Indian Bank has launched the LDP for 800 officers in scale IV
LEADERSHIP: ONLINE TOOLS
For existing employees, the Indian Bank conducts 4 tests in a year to test the knowledge of the employees regarding latest banking updates and policies. Earlier the bank didn’t link these tests to annual performance appraisal report (APAR) score, however, Dhanaraj T, GM, HRM / CDO, (Chief Development Officer), clarifies: “At present these tests carries weightage in the APAR score. The bank conducts Leadership Development Program (LDP) for officers in scale IV to VI and psychometric test is part of LDP. In the current FY, our bank has launched the LDP for 800 officers in scale IV. The objective of this exercise is to identify and groom future leaders of the bank.”
The LDP consists of 3 phases – phase 1 entails the administration of online tools (psychometric assessments, situation judgment test, managerial aptitude and leadership simulation tests). Dhanaraj adds:“The phase 2 entails a set of TBEIs (Targeted Behavioral Event Interviews) and GDs (group discussions) for the top 250 participants. Phase 3 consists of panel interviews conducted by the senior management.”
