Abstract

This study is a case study in order to optimize the current talent management process in POGC. Research methodology is mixed method (quantitative - qualitative) that was conducted in two phases. In the quantitative phase, by using a questionnaire and a random sampling method and sample size of 267 cases among all employees using Cochran formula, the gap between the current and desired state of talent management process was investigated. In the qualitative phase, semi-structured interviews with 24 of the managers whom were selected via purposive sampling were analyzed by means of content analysis for explanation and interpretation of the gaps in talent management aspects. The results of the quantitative data revealed that there were significant gaps between all the components of current talent management (identification, development, assessment and maintenance) and optimal state as well as talent management process, as a whole. Findings of qualitative content analysis revealed the dimensions of these gaps. Based on findings, in order to optimize the current talent management system and to remove these gaps and barriers, appropriate model and strategic recommendations have been proposed. These model will help the authorities to have a coherent framework to discover, develop, evaluate and maintain valuable human capital instead of repeating what are done in human resource management sector and thereby meet the challenges and needs are emerging.
