Hi Derek,
It is not Preethi. Name is Preet. Anyways no probs. I have already compared the Maslow's theory with HR topics. I have already accepted Seema's point also, Maslow didn't mention the HR topics or mgt topics in his mind. But his theory was interpreted with HR topics, which clearly I have mentioned. Hope this would clarify your point.
Hi Krishna,
Kindly post your replies at the earliest, as we have already told Seema to post her question.

hi all,
Sandeep has answered it partially correct, but the basic fundas are not clear in that response.
Broad banding of pay structures started as a trend in late 80s and early 90s in flatter and more flexible organizations. Many positions traditionally covered by numerous seperate pay ranges were swept into a relatively few, very wide job classifications which is called as band. Usually, to simplify administration and toenhance a sense of common purpose and a single team atmosphere. By collapsing a number of narrower salary grades the organization reaps the benefit of low hierarchical order in organization structure and it may give the signal to employees that development is more important than worrying about promotions all the time. This promotes "paying for the person" rather than paying for the job.
Shadow ranges are these earlier narrow ranges which were sunk into wider bands. The shadows are necessary to keep in mind so that one knows where did this broad band originally came from.
Research indicates that Broad Banding if more often than not effective in improving career development/management.
So,...here we are..... I think preet can decide who should be the next one to launch a new question.

Yes, the answer given by our member "devanand" is correct. I really liked the definition part of it. The benefits cited are quite comprehensive. So, the next question goes to you.
Just one request- If you could cite an example from your experience, where you realized a significant differences in benefits gained at the organizational level by choosing to apply "compency based HR practice" over the existing / traditional practice, that would make it really interesting.
Thanks
