Abstract

This study is aimed at designing a model for talent management in the Iranian public companies, from which Tavanir specialized mother company is selected as a case study. This is a qualitative research, which specifically employs grounded theory (the emergent method). The statistical population of the research includes managers, HR experts and talented specialists of Tavanir Company, 16 people of whom are selected by theoretical and purposeful sampling method. Semi-structured interview and field survey are employed to collect the data. The data was coded and analyzed through Qualitative Data Analysis Software (MAXQDA) 10. The findings indicates that the main components of the talent management model include: "talent-seeking," "talent-discovery," "talent-appointment," "talent-maintenance", and "talent increase." Its executive implications are identified at individual, organizational, and ultra-organizational levels. Other findings of this study include simultaneous theorization of the positive and negative aspects of talent management with multivariate analysis of its implications in the context of Iranian government companies.
