Page 65 of 86 M.P.Birla Institute of Management.

Shashidhar VN

4.

International training: Bosch training is an international issue, since the

company also has to cover its needs for skilled workers at its locations all over the world. In its plant in Hatvan, Hungary, for example, Bosch offers a crash course for electronics engineers. At the same time, a cooperation agreement with three junior technical colleges pro-vided for the introduction of Bosch classes, teaching subjects that are especially relevant for working life.

5.

International Development Program: In its International Development Pro-

gram, or IDP for short, Bosch fosters young talent from all over the world. In 2005, the company will has recruited 150 especially well qualified candidates in 22 countries outside Germany. These associates have been prepared systematically for the assumption of leadership assignments in their home countries. During the entire training period, they were Associates supervised by an experienced executive from their country, who will act as a mentor.

6.

Jobstairs online job exchange: Bosch is also using electronic channels in its

quest for qualified associates: in 2003, an online job exchange was set up together with 27 other companies.

JOBS WITH IDENTITY

7.

Further training - Support and demands: Bosch and innovation are

synonymous. Contributing to this culture is a challenge that every staff member must face on a daily basis. Since Bosch expects so much from its staff, it must provide the necessary conditions to develop both professionally and personally. And that is exactly what it does. RBIN’s discerning, comprehensive training and further education program systematically supports all associates. Belonging to the international Bosch Group, also brings with it added responsibilities: to support an environment of openness to learning, being self confident, and a high sense of self initiative in international cooperation needs to be the overall goal for employee and organization development. To sum up, leadership competence is necessary to work at Bosch.

8.

Technical Leadership: Bosch India works on the latest in Bosch Technology,

from AUTOSAR initiatives, and high end security systems to embedded systems and automotive development. Here associates have the opportunity to work on technologies outside of the normal realm, be it hardware or software.

9. Women - Powered by Bosch!- Supporting women's careers is not a policy, it is a philosophy which is spread. Bosch is committed to supporting women. It wants ever more women to be represented on all hierarchical levels and in all functional divisions, and are committed to equal opportunities for women and men. It has already managed to significantly increase the number of women among its workforce. And perhaps it will have a female President in the foreseeable future.

10.

International work with Bosch: Bosch is an international and globally active

corporation. The global Bosch team comes from extremely wide backgrounds. It develops and produces products in more than 50 countries - and supply markets in Page 67 of 86 M.P.Birla Institute of Management.

Shashidhar VN

around 150 countries. Its employees can therefore work in an international atmosphere and learn at first hand how a global player works. This exposure is an ideal chance for the corporation and staff alike to learn from other cultures and benefit from the wealth of perspectives and ideas, since they are important influences in developing new products and services.

11.

Cultural Pride: At Bosch India, they believe that building an awareness of and

appreciation for ones own culture is very important, before understanding and working with another culture. Be it Kathak or Manipuri, RBIN associates are exposed to the gamut of Indian culture to inculcate a sense of appreciation for India and what it stands for. It is hard to explain, but at Bosch a sense of self is very important.

12.

Stability: Bosch has been around for more than 115 years. Being around for

more than a century means that it is a very agile organization, but yet are old fashioned in some ways - it gives a stable career, an environment where scientists and inventors are nurtured, a place where minds are given the opportunity to think, reflect, and create.

13.

Infrastructure: RBIN’s infrastructure is one of the best in the country. Individual

workplaces designed as per international standards provide an environment that one can be proud of. Facilities such as health care, canteen, sports, gym are also offered. 14.

CONCLUSION 1.

All around the world, the name of Bosch stands for competence, quality and

reliability. The "workshop for precision engineering and electrical engineering" that Robert Bosch founded in Stuttgart, Germany, in 1886, has grown in the course of more than one hundred years to become a true global player.

2.

Every day, countless people at Bosch group work towards improving our

technical standards and thereby improve the future. By inventing, improving and refining electronics and mechanics, modern technology supports people in everyday life, making it far more comfortable, varied and often more entertaining. Research and development is a core activity and a part of life at Bosch. The innovative drive and the ability to manufacture technologically advanced products in large series are the mainstays of Bosch's success. The Bosch group demonstrates its competence as a supplier of cutting-edge technology with a number of new developments and processes in all sectors of its activities.

3.

Robert Bosch India, is a leading automotive supplier, is all set to look for

opportunities in the rapidly growing Indian market. On the market potentials in Indian auto-industry, In India, automotive technology represents a huge area of business, supplying both to the local automotive industry as well as exporting components around the world. Hence RBIN have plans to continue its business focus on Asia and invest heavily in markets like China and India. About areas of concentration, RBIN is strengthening industrial technology and building technology business sectors. In addition, it is moving into new growth areas such as microsystems technology. Last year the Bosch Group focused more strongly on the growth regions in Asia, extending its development and manufacturing network.

Bosch India software, which reported revenues of Rs 395 crore last year,

employs over 3,500 professionals, including over 2,100 techies deployed in building technology solutions for the automobile industry. RBIN is growing at around 40% every year and match the Indian tech majors in growth. Robert Bosch India plans to add 1,000 employees per annum to its workforce. The company's headcount stands at 3,500 and will rise

3,900 by year-end. Of the 3,500 employees, 2,000 work in the

automotive domain and 25 in the chip design and testing domain.

5.

After studying the organization, the various departments, organization structure

the following conclusion can be drawn .It was a very good opportunity to implement the theoretical knowledge acquired throughout the year. I was able to get a feel of how the organization works and how they respond to crisis situations. It was easy to learn practically, the coordination between various departments.

6.

Exposure to company’s policies and rules were of great help. It was a surprise

to watch the involvement of the employees who worked in the organization. They were cooperative and enthusiastic all day long in the office. It provided me with an opportunity to experience the organizational behavior. I got to learn the various aspects in the Human Resource Department. The personal interview with few department heads proved to be very useful in implementing the theoretical knowledge. The overall exposure to the business scenario was one of its sorts. It was ideal time to learn and imbibe the aspects of the working of the Organization.
