Abstract

To attain competitive advantage and achieve business growth, organizations have realized that a highly engaged, and motivated workforce is the key. Retention of talent is an important agenda of every organization in the competitive world of business. Organizations are required therefore to be more innovative and dynamic in their Talent Management (TM) approach. However, academic research in the field of TM does not provide any specific conclusions for a right TM explanation. In fact, research on TM has been assumed to be not offering right talent management solutions to organizations to accomplish its effective talent management practices. This review of literature includes a detailed study of different interpretations of talent management as a concept, it also studies different factors of talent management. The study defines different components of commitment and the concept of turnover intention of employees in organizations.

Further research in establishing and analyzing the relationships will support effective implementation of different talent management policies, practices and their influence in addressing retention challenges in organizations.
