Whether one organization can survive or not, it will depend on its competitiveness. In other words, an organization which is not competitive enough will be forced to leave from this competitive battlefield. On the perspective of human capital, while taking about the level of the organizational competitiveness, the quality of ¡§human resource¡¨ is the key indicator besides the production equipment. In this case, almost every organization put efforts on employee training and education on talents for long-term planning.
On personal perspective, training does not only increase one¡¦s confidence and job satisfaction, but also improve the performance ¡]Baldwin & Ford, 1988; Roat, 1988; Curry, Dobbins & Ladd, 1994¡^. In other words, a complete training can increase personal confidence and job performance efficiency as well. Curry (1994) indicated that the only 10-13% trainees can transfer what they have learned from training program to their work, which turns out the waste of 87-90% training cost (Huang, 1999). Moreover, one¡¦s willingness on participation depends on his motivation (Amabile, 1988) which implies that employees¡¦ motivation will significantly influence their performance.
In this study, according to the released information of companies from The Life Insurance Association of The Republic of China, we have surveyed the employees of the top 8 companies. The variables including training transfer, as the independent variable, job performance, as the dependent variable, and work motivation, as the moderator, will be examined in this study. We are going to discuss that the work motivation will mediate the relationship between training transfer and job performance through hierarchical regression analyses.
The result indicated that training transfer significantly influence job performance and work motivation mediates the relationship between training transfer and job performance. In practice, the trainers can try to increase the trainees¡¦ motivation on participation or consider those employees who are tend to be active on participation while developing organizational training program. Besides, the course design and teaching approaches can improve higher satisfaction of trainees. Increasing employees¡¦ work motivation through social support from managers and colleagues, promotion incentives, new job skills learned from training programs to improve employees¡¦ job performance.
