Abstract

One of the main challenges of governmental and nongovernmental organizations in Iran concerns lack of a coherent practice of talent management. The main purpose of this research concerns understanding the notion of talent management from the view of managers and experts of the Iranian governmental organizations. This research is conducted by employing both quantitative and qualitative methods simultaneously. The statistical population of the study contains competent managers and experts of state-owned organizations. The participants' perceptions of talent management were identified through structured interviews based on the treasury network. They were then classified to form the basis of analysis. The results displayed an analysis formulated in the form of a system including two distinct internal dimensions. They also resulted in eight  structures including a trusted process for the identifying talented people, the supply  of talented people, opportunity for the development for talented individuals, special people for specific posts, exclusiveness, facilitating a career path for key personnel, purposive evaluation of key people, and providing talent from within the organization.
