Abstract:
Transfer of training facilitates a knowledge-driven organizational culture that provides competitive advantage to the firm. A self-report survey was conducted on employees of an Indian public manufacturing organization. Data was collected from 156 respondents to test the mediating role of supervisory support using structural equation modelling (SEM) (AMOS 24). The major findings are: (1) Supervisory support is a significant predictor of training transfer (2) The mediating mechanism of supervisory support between transfer design, training readiness and transfer of training is empirically established (3) Transfer design was not directly related to training transfer. The theoretical and practical implications of the study are discussed.
