How should the manpower plan be prepared In order to upgred our country as a developed country
Answers
Answer:
Developed countries have had a good head start on the “under-developed” countries.
Enterprise, good fortune and the particular style of social order that Western countries employed over the last couple of centuries, in particular since the start of the Industrial Revolution, have contributed strongly to the style of the Western countries political and social systems.
The release of a vast number of people occupied as farm labourers before the Industrial Revolution set a new standard of existence in Western countries.
While agriculture was the principal occupier of people the pace of social reform and industrialisation stagnated. There were developments in science and business (principally local small to medium manufacturing enterprises that employed skilled tradespeople) that supported trade, they were all under the scrutiny of the church, the power at the time.
Manpower planning took the form of the number of people needed to keep food production at the necessary level and people trained to defend their country. The latter was bolstered by the farm workers at times of conflict. Education was for the privileged but contributed to the development of technological changes that paved the way for released farm workers to gain employment.
It was the migration of people into cities and the enterprises that trained and occupied these people in paid work that forged the financial and political status of the Western society.
Suddenly people were freed from the arduous work of farming and were re-employed in technology based enterprises that utilised the new found energy and the “modern” materials of the day.
Most countries that are reaching for the well-being of the people of Western societies are progressing through these stages today. The installation of energy sources and the availability of the energy to entrepreneurs provide a base for the establishment of enterprises able to absorb people released from other duties.
Many have been released from agricultural duties and re-deployed to work in enterprises in cities. Over a number of years of good production and trade these people gather personal wealth and an ability to pursue a life of relative comfort in pursuit of a Western person’s good fortune.
Manpower planning in developing countries is about how to provide people with work that will allow them to gain personal self-worth and realisation. Opportunity for employment and availability of people for employment has to be balanced and take into account skill sets required for the enterprises in demand of people. Education and training are key aspects of manpower utilisation and overwhelms the simple thought of planning. All these factors have to come together for successful occupation and production.
The 2 countries that I admire most in their determination to gain Western style benefits and satisfaction are Japan and China. Despite their different political models these countries have elevated the well-being of their people as they transformed from an agricultural society with limited education, and with endemic poverty in some instances, to technological powerhouses with unprecedented skill sets. India is not far behind them although some of their social systems and the absolute capitalism that pervades will offer some stiff opposition to opportunity for all.
Other countries are struggling in their utmost efforts to gain similar status principally because of low national resources, the reigning political system or disproportionate wealth. We can only hope that these limitations will be overcome.
