Given the increasing volatile and complex socio-economic structure of our Business Organization in Nigeria, two business factors are crucial for business success capital and human resources capital whether acquired through load or from private source, is by far easier to manage, control only when there is qualified and human resources organizations whether public or private are prone to Jeopardy when there is no adequate human resource or staff management
It is from the for going premise that the compelling need arises for staff management and development as a sine-qua non for enhance productivity considering the fact that available human or man power organization in Nigeria have not been properly manage nor do the available human resource or improving our economic when organization one properly managed and the country will be badly affected.
According to (1974) Udoji report and quoted by Oshioneno (2001) the public services much be changed and strengthened to respond effectively to demand of development. They need qualified and skilled and motivated people at the right time to achieve objective to, to transfer paper plan into actual achievement of all aspect of personnel management, perhaps the most importance for us here in Nigeria today is training and management. It is good to note that public sector has continued to accord appreciable attention to proper improvement of staff of management and staff development. In the wake of the professionalism introduced or reinforced by 1988 civil services reform, it was imperative for every Job incumbent to posses requisite knowledge, skills and attitudinal tendencies in specific job activity in government or other public sector service.
