- Description
- It is suggested that organisations are becoming relentless in managing and developing their talent. However, this view is largely based on anecdote rather than empirical evidence. Utilising data from 260 multinational companies (MNCs), this paper redresses this deficit. Specifically, this paper explores the extent to which MNCs engage in global talent management (GTM) and deciphers some of the factors which may explain engagement in GTM. In so doing, we find that although a significant number of MNCs have systems and mechanisms in place to strategically identify and develop their talent many more seemingly adopt an ad hoc or haphazard approach.
