Online published on 23 May, 2025. Abstract This paper aims to investigate how human resource development (HRD) Initiatives influence employee performance in selected IT Companies in Hyderabad. An integrated research model was crafted by synthesizing key factors from existing literature. Data was gathered via a questionnaire administered to 500 employees from selected IT Companies in which only 350 respondents reverted back with full required information corresponding to a response rate of 70 percent. The model's validity and hypotheses were evaluated using structural equation modeling, while the reliability and validity of the dimensions were verified through confirmatory factor analysis. The study indicates that specific HRD initiatives have a significant effect on employee performance. The research focuses solely on the selected IT companies and uses cross-sectional data, which might not be applicable to other sectors or more extensive contexts. The results provide valuable insights for stakeholders, policymakers, and HR Managers on implementing effective HRD practices to enhance employee competencies and improve organizational performance.
