CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1  Background to the Study
Business organization whether manufacturing, commercial or construction requires some inputs in their operations. These input resources may be raw materials or human. The interaction of these resources through design, rules, policies and prescription give rise to the final product which may be tangible or intangible in nature. Fearns (2010) points out that organization employs three (3) main resources factors of production –natural resource such as land and raw material, man-made resources such as building, machinery /equipment and people of all these, people are the most important assets of any organization.
According and Nwachukwu (2010) human resources are considered the most important because the success or failure of an organization depends on them. In other words, human resources/ employees are those that operate, direct and manage the other resources in order to achieve the desired objectives of the organization. Manpower development is a process by which an organization endeavors and  strives to prepare it’s employees to be active in a particular job are and ensure it develops their skills to be better and useful to the organization helping it to achieve it’s overall objectives. Miller (2014). By focusing on productivity, organizations are realizing that it is imperative to hire employees who can do the job and be successfully at it and to find these people, bring them into the organization and develop their skills for the job is a sound human resources implementation.
It is interesting to note that in any organizational set up, managers must have a clear idea of the current configuration of human resources. The need to known the strengths and weakness of their present stock of employees as well as information on the job specification and job evaluation must be considered. Again, to review the organizations overall objectives and revenue projection. To translate the organization’s revenue projection into a forecast of demand for human resources. Mager (1970).
The environmental situation of business generally has influenced   the importance attached to the human resources of an organization. Most organizations now look forward to the planning and developments of their labour forcer in terms of quality and composition. As a result of this, the issue of manpower development has continued to interest organizations and scholars alike.
Manpower development, which was born into the family of human resource management, emanated from effective strategic management. This is to say that through the mid 1950s, the basic concept of strategic management was that of policy making from where the course “business policy” took it’s name, there have been enormous environmental changes facing most business organizations.
These changes therefore brings to our door steps the need for an organization to develop and beat up her manpower for them to be able to acquaint themselves the reoccurring changes in business. An organization is required not only to keep replacing managers to be able to tackle these ugly situations when they come, but developing the best possible managers to meet required demands. Nelson (2014). This works was designed to investigate human resources planning and development approaches used in Port Harcourt Electricity Distribution Company of Nigeria PLC. Uyo, the influential factors involved in the exercise.
1.2  Statement of the Problem
The human resources (manpower) is considered the most critical to any organizational survival of a truism that adequate supply of material and financial resources that utilized these available resources to bring about the desired goals. However, most organization plan meticulously for their investment in physical and capital resources and these plans are reviewed with utmost attention to human investment in which the capital and equipment will be in vain. Not many organizations consider the necessity for a well defined and sustained training and development for staff in order to upgrade their performance or they are not able to cope financially with training and development programmes.
They few organizations that give thought to this very important aspect of staffing functions do so with lack of seriousness, all round attention and continuity.

It is the opinion of industry observes that the poor performance of the organization. Workers follow from their inability to keep abreast with the new technological current as a result of the absence of appropriate and sufficient staff training. It is against this background that the researcher considered the impact of performance training and development on organizational performance of this mission, however, the researcher used Port Harcourt Electricity Distribution plc as a reference point.
