Literature review
Talent management and its significance
According to Mensah, (2019), talent management is the process of continuously
attracting, engaging, developing, retaining and deploying candidates with the aim to avail high
level of potentiality in the organisation both for present and future business operations. The most
important role that is being played by talent management practices is of attracting and retaining
best talent within organisation. This helps in obtaining much higher level of performance that
would not be possible otherwise if such practices will be not be in place appropriately. Daubner-
Siva, and et. al., (2018) views practices followed in managing talent as a creation of difficult
situations for human resource manager who is actually responsible for applying talent
management practices within organisation. He states that when we want to retain talent in the
organisation then HR must decide upon who is more worth keeping & who is not. When
employees are retained for longer run then it leads to higher costs for the organisation in terms of
paying higher compensation for ensuring retention.
Contribution of talent management strategies in organisational success
Taylor, (2018) studied that when HR manager adopts effective talent management
strategies, this helps them in obtaining the best talent with higher skills and capabilities. The best
image of the organisation can be created in the market where HRM of the organisation are in a
position to attract most talent candidates which would definitely contributes towards
organisational success. Talent management practices are also important in motivating employees
which is helpful in creating a reason in the minds of talented employees to remain stay in the
particular organisation and perform their tasks more dedicatedly. And this would be helpful for
organisation in getting higher level performance and achieving goals of the organisation with a

greater ease. Whysall, Owtram and Brittain, (2019) evaluated that organisational success of
those businesses having less resource deficiencies are hindered due to evolution of talent
management practices as they are not in a position to attract and retain talented and high
potential candidates. Such businesses face difficulty in managing talent if they are not even able
to provide perks other than cash.
Role of talent management in improvement of organisational performance
Sivathanu and Pillai, (2019) stated that talent management plays an important role in
engaging and motivating skilled employees, which in turn allows them to perform in the best
interest of the organisational goals, which automatically ensures satisfaction of the client. This
will accordingly improve performance and final business results. As per Ogbari and et. al.,
(2018), many a time organisation rather than improving performance and end results wasted
resources and incurred higher costs in following TM practices which is not at all advisable.
Research methodology

employ qualitative research type for evaluating contribution of talent management strategies in

inductive approach will be adopted for studying impact of TM strategies on performance of the
