A Research Overview

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Talent management is a central element of managerial discourse and organisational practice. This short-form book provides a succinct overview on the state of research on talent management.

The authors set out the key themes, arguments, trends and future research trajectories of talent management, highlighting major works in the field. As a research topic with a fragmented body of knowledge, pluralistic perspectives are summarised, while workforce differentiation emerges as a central element.

A critical introduction for students, scholars and reflective practitioners, this book guides readers through a relatively new and rapidly developing area of management research.

"Talent management continues to grow in importance in academic research, but what is it? What exactly do we know about managing talent? These two major questions guide this excellent work by McDonnell and Wiblen. The authors do an superb job in addressing key themes and arguments, evidence of efficacy, trends, and likely future trajectories. This succinct book is THE 'pocket guide' to talent management!"
