Abstract

This study investigates the multifaceted impact of resource management, man management, and record management training within the context of basic training on Sub Inspectors' role performance in police station management in Kerala. The research involves gathering data from fifty-three Sub-Inspectors of the Kerala Police and employs a quantitative methodology. Results indicate a significant positive correlation between the incorporation of station house management training and the observed improvements in Sub-Inspectors' performance attributes. The training interventions were found to foster a proactive approach to problem-solving, high victim satisfaction levels, and improved community relations. Their capacity for situation analysis and rapid retrieval of critical information was notably improved, contributing to sound judgment and decision-making in complex scenarios. The findings emphasize the pivotal role of training in enhancing the effectiveness of Sub-Inspectors of police in their respective roles
