Abstract

Human resources are the most central influence of production in a corporate world. Employees are regarded as the life blood of any organisation (for profit and nonprofit alike). But despite its importance, some organisations still have various difficulties associated with the implementation of employee training and development programmes. Hence, this study investigated human resource development and employee performances in non-profit organisations using the Living Faith Church, Ota, Ogun State, Nigeria. The study's specific goals include analyzing the influence of career development on employee motivation, the impact of mentoring on employee engagement, the effect of corporate training spending on employee adequate training, and the influence of human resource development on employee effectiveness, engagement, and competencies. For this study, a structured questionnaire was given to 133 clergy members of the Living Faith Church (Headquarters), both ministerial and non-ministerial. A descriptive research approach was specifically chosen for the research work. Purposeful sampling methods and Simple random were used to choose a sample size of 340. Only 108 of the 133 administered questionnaire were located and used in the regression analysis by SPSS, the statistical package for social sciences. The study shows that when employees are on off/on- the job training they have a certain level of how much they think and carry out mental activity on behalf of the organization there by increasing their cognitive engagement to the organization. Workers are given an avenue for career development, they elude a degree of affection as well as emotional responsiveness towards the organization, causing a positive effect on the affective engagement of workers to the organization. According to the findings employers should view human capital as an asset rather than a variable cost. Businesses must view employee development as an asset rather than a mere expense, allocating sufficient funding and giving it the attention it deserves.
