T.V. Rao, born on October 17, 1947, in Andhra Pradesh, India, is regarded as "The Father of Indian HRD" [1]. A new Human Resource Development system emerged in India in 1974 with Dr. T.V. Rao and Dr. Udai Pareek heading the movement. It was started as a "Review Exercise of the Performance Appraisal System" for L&T by the duo from the Indian Institutes of Management, Ahmedabad (IIMA) which resulted in the development of a new function - The Human Resources Development Function. Dr. Rao and Dr Udai Pareek were instrumental in setting up the HRD Department for L&T and making it the first company in this part of the world to have fully Dedicated HRD Department.
Dr. Rao is also the founder president of the National HRD Network and the Indian Society for Applied Behavioural Sciences (ISABS)[2]. Dr. Rao had worked as a professor at the premier management institute of India - the IIM, Ahmedabad from 1973 - 1994[3]. After leaving the IIMA, he started working for the Academy of Human Resources Development which was set up with support from RMCEI of IIMA[4]. He worked as its Honorary Director for some time. As HRD started growing Larsen & Toubro instituted a HRD Chair Professorship at XLRI, Jamshedpur. Dr. T.V. Rao moved to XLRI as L&T Professor to set up the Centre for HRD. Dr. Rao has also contributed majorly in the field of competency mapping and defines competency mapping as the process of identification of the competencies required to perform successfully at a given point of time.
During the last few years, Dr. Rao has been popularizing the methodology of "Developing Leadership through Feedback by Known People" (DLFKP), which he developed in the mid eighties at IIMA and worked on it along with Prof. P. N. Khandwalla, J.P. Singh and S. Ramnarayan[5]. This methodology is now termed by other specialists as 360 degree feedback methodology. To popularize this methodology as a development tool, he has started a 360 degree feedback club and has also conducted over 50 workshops in the last five years in India, Thailand, Philippines, Nigeria and Egypt. Currently, he is developing HRD Auditors and Trainers of Development Centers and creating manuals for HRD Audit in an effort to make HRD Audit like ISO certification. The HR Score Card as known today was created by him much before it was published from the US[6].
Dr. Rao has also served as Advisor, HRD to the Reserve Bank of India, BEML, Bangalore and State Bank Of India. He has also been associated with many organizations including the Aditya Birla Group and the Tata group. He also continues to work as Chairman of the Academic Council and Executive Committee of the Academy of HRD. He set up a consulting firm TVRLS in 1996 and has been working as its Chairman till now.
