Validating the effect of talent management on organisational outcomes with mediating role of job empowerment in business

Over the past decade, talent has become a more important resource than investments, capital, research or strategy in business. It is also a great basis for competitive advantage in the market. Hence, most companies are now concentrating on designing and developing talent management strategies in their businesses. The four essential elements of the talent management process are identifying significant positions, competency-based training, critical talent development, and reward and recognition. The whole process of talent management affects organisational outcomes. The major objective of this research study is to understand the linkages and influence of talent management with organisational outcomes. The study was conducted with a survey of 324 respondents from service, manufacturing and information technology companies in Indonesia and India. The outcomes revealed the positive relationships of the talent management process and organisational outcomes with employee participation and organisational engagement through the mediating role of job empowerment.
