In
applying the system theory to the study at hand, the civil service is
seen as an open system which comprises of a whole entity with
sub-systems that interact within itself and within the outside bodies,
the larger society.
Hence the various sub-systems (department) are
not autonomous within the guild structure, rather they are independent
part of the unitary organization.
Accordingly, the civil service as
an organization receives imputs (men, skills) etc in the form of demand
and supply from the people. Demand could be regarded as positive and
negative expression of individuals towards the activities occurring in
the environment of a particular political system.
The fundamental
idea here is that the staffs are the life-blood and the success of the
civil service ultimately depends on them. The individual staff therefore
requires a planned development and training programme to improve their
skills and knowledge in their various levels and areas of operation so
as to respond effectively to the demand of the people and also to
achieve the objectives of the civil service.
To make for efficiency
in human resource and achieve increased productivity, workers in the
system are trained and developed in the best method so that productivity
can be achieved at a very minimal time and reduced cost, if they fail
to do this the reverse will be the case which might lead to the total
collapse of the civil service.
Since the civil service is a system
with various sub-system both the senior and junior executives need
development and training programmes that will prepare them to occupy a
position especially for a position vertically higher than he/she was.
The
demand and supply are critically analyzed in the conversion process and
are passed out as output in the form of authoritative allocation of
values, laws, regulations and services that will determine if the
productive level of the civil service is enough to achieve their
objectives.
Human resources development and productivity in Kogi
State civil service will lead to efficiency among the workers and
effectiveness in reaching their stated goals.
