Abstract

Human resources and knowledge play an important role in the today’s fast-changing world. Human resource optimization is achieved when human resources are aligned with key organizational initiatives to maximize business performance. Talented people are the future of every business. Leading and developing the potential of talented employees should be on the agenda of every modern business. Businesses that know what globalization brings try to attract talented people as talented people are playing an increasingly important role in all sectors, thus confirming that talent management is becoming the fastest growing global human resource management trend. Many businesses realize that they must relocate their business, sometimes even across borders, to succeed. Working with talent must be a top priority for businesses, as talent needs to be constantly developed and managed. The aim of the paper is to define the basic concepts related to the acquisition, management and development of talents at the theoretical level and to point out the importance of talent management as it is becoming an important global trend. Based on the survey we carried out and literature available, the main objective of the paper is to identify key roles and responsibilities that talented employees take upon, to specify a set of requirements placed upon talented employees and to identify factors determining the ability of a business to attract talents.

Summary

Introduction

Stýblo [4] points out that it is the leadership and training of talents that are becoming one of the most important factors in human resource management. Fruytier, Thunnissen [5] present that a key of global human resources management are talent employees and performance management. He states that organizations operating under the influence of globalization are attracting talented people who are playing an increasingly important role in all sectors, confirming that talent management is becoming the fastest growing global trend in human resources management. Authors Dundon and Rafferty [11] point out the importance of reward strategies, talent management, and high performance work systems in human resources management in a global work environment. Talent management is increasingly important to organizational leaders who are attempting to maximize their business performance, with the central assumption that it is essential to recruit, develop, and retain ‘top’ employees in order to meet the strategic business objectives of organizations [13]. It is logical that they will focus only on a smaller number of high-performing and exceptional people with high potential
