Abstract:
The objective of the present research study is to construct a Talent
Management model for the public sector from exclusive and inclusive approaches.
The authors used a questionnaire survey to collect data from 357 employees at 32
governmental organizations, and then applied structural equation modeling for fur ther analyses. The results revealed that Talent Management model is a multifaceted
construct consisting of two main parts (i.e. Talent Management Mindset and Talent
Management Strategy) that affect the talent management practices in the public
sector. Specially, the practices linked to Talent Management Mindset were found
to be the most influential. Although studies concerning talent management are
frequently founded on an exclusive approach, this study considered all employees in
the organizations. The Talent Management model proposed in this study can provide
vision as well as direction for the definition or practices of talent management in
the public arena
