Employee training and development are pivotal in enhancing organizational performance, fostering employee engagement, and ensuring long-term business sustainability. This systematic review examines the impact of training and development on organizational productivity, employee retention, innovation, and job satisfaction. By synthesizing empirical research from multiple industries, the study identifies key training methodologies, such as on-the-job training, blended learning, leadership development programs, and technical skill boot camps that significantly contribute to workforce efficiency and performance enhancement. The findings reveal that organizations investing in structured training programs experience productivity improvements of up to 30%, lower turnover rates, and increased innovation capabilities. Moreover, the review highlights critical barriers organizations face in implementing training programs, including financial constraints, employee resistance, inadequate evaluation metrics, and outdated training content. While training enhances employee competence, the effectiveness of such programs depends on alignment with organizational goals, leadership support, and the implementation of robust assessment models to measure return on investment (ROI). The study underscores the relevance of human capital theory, emphasizing that workforce development is a strategic investment yielding long-term economic and organizational benefits. This review contributes to human resource management literature by offering data-driven insights and best practices for optimizing training investments. It calls for future research to explore standardized training evaluation frameworks and the long-term financial impact of workforce development initiatives. By fostering a culture of continuous learning, organizations can achieve higher productivity, increased employee satisfaction, and sustained competitive advantage in a rapidly evolving business environment.
