Designing a talent management model in Mobarakeh Steel Company

Abstract

OBJECTIVE:

The present study aimed to provide a talent management model for Mobarakeh Steel Company (MSC).

METHODS:

The research method in this study is a mixed method including qualitative and quantitative methods. Qualitative data were collected through interviews with experts and informants and then analyzed by grounded theory. Then, quantitative data were collected from employees and managers and analyzed by Partial Least Square (PLS) analysis. Finally, an interpretation and conclusion were made. In the qualitative section, the research community consists of 15 managers and experts of MSC. In the quantitative section, 300 managers and experts were selected as a sample, and questionnaires were distributed and analyzed.

RESULTS:

The results of the interview analysis extracted 86 concepts, which were classified into 5 categories including causal conditions, central phenomena, contextual factors, strategies, and consequences. The results of the qualitative section show that causal conditions had a significant effect on the central phenomenon (with a coefficient of 0.89). In addition, the effect of the differentiation of susceptible manpower on contextual factors (with a coefficient of 0.82) was confirmed. Contextual factors have a significant effect on strategies (with a coefficient of 0.93). The results also show that the intervening factors (with a coefficient of 0.74) have a significant effect on the strategies and the talent management process (with a coefficient of 0.92) also has a significant effect on the consequences.

CONCLUSIONS:

The results provide insights and practical suggestions for managers who decide to design human resource system with a talent management approach. Additionally, the findings of this research help managers to better understand the factors that have an impact on talent management.

1 Introduction

The complexity and competitiveness of business context, changing environmental demands, changing generations, and the transition from traditional to modern human resource management has faced organizations with talent challenge. More than 75% of CEOs highlighted the scarcity of essential skills and capabilities as a key threat to the growth prospects of their organizations [1]. Therefore, the need to focus on identifying, attracting, hiring, developing, and retaining talent has increased and the area of talent management has become one of the fastest-growing areas of academic work in management over recent decades.

The review of published articles shows three distinct strains of thought in this field: The first defines talent management as a set of practices, functions, and activities such as recruitment, selection, development, and career management. Some practitioners tend to focus on sub-disciplines of HR to narrow the definition of TM. For example, recruiters tend to discuss talent management in terms of finding the best possible. They replace the traditional term “human resources” with “talent management.” The second perspective is based on the concept of talent pools. In this perspective, TM is a set of processes designed to ensure an adequate flow of employees throughout the organization. These topics are very close to succession or human resource planning. A third perspective on TM focuses on talent generically. That is, regardless of organizational boundaries or special situations, two general views about talent emerge in this view. The first refers to talent as an unqualified commodity and a resource to be primarily managed and the second view sees it as an undifferentiated commodity that human and demographic perspectives of talents are very important because the role of a strong HR function is for management [2].

Talent management ensures that organizations have qualified people with the right skills and the right job position. Talent management also helps to introduce employees extensively. Effective implementation of a talent management strategy leads to the successful acquisition and retention of talent, and these employees are selected for key positions in the future [3]. Talent management can be a factor that creates effective reforms and development [4]. Talent management can pave the way for employees to develop their potential by informing them of their weaknesses [5].

Talent management has a positive effect on financial, organizational, and human resource outcomes such as employee participation, improving quality and skills, and more satisfaction. Findings in the literature show that talent management is positively associated with variables such as job satisfaction, emotional commitment, work motivation, retention, and citizenship behavior [6]. Talented employees have the desired abilities and therefore the implementation of talent management motivates them and provides them with the necessary opportunities by placing them in key situations [7].

Talent management is a big challenge for developing countries including Iran because it is difficult to find and retain local talent that can cope with a global business world. Despite conducting studies on the challenges of talent management in developing countries and providing talent management models, reviewing related research shows that in the field of talent management theory development, there is a lack of a unified and coherent theory and theoretical framework in this field.

MSC as the most important company in the steel industry in Iran plays a key role in the economic system of the country and it is affected by the changes in the environment. The experience of several decades of scientific management in various organizations indicates that the success of the organization is fundamentally dependent on the performance of human resources. So, the success of this industry is not possible without the role of talent. In such a situation, managing talent is considered an effective strategy. This organization has become a knowledge-based organization so in addition to the need to obtain the latest scientific materials, it requires a new system of human resource management as talent management to ensure the use of talented human resources for goals achievement. Therefore, designing the model of talent management is a critical topic to study.

The following questions have been designed to identify the dimensions, components, and indicators of the talent management model of MSC:

Main question: What is the talent management model in MSC?

Sub questions:

What is the causal condition of talent management?

What is the core phenomenon of talent management?

What is the context of talent management?

What are the intervening factors for talent management?

What are talent management strategies?

What are the consequences of talent management?

2 Talent management and human resource management

Some studies claim that there is no difference between talent management and human resource management, especially considering the comprehensive approach to talent management that considers all employees as talent. In most management texts, the term talent management and human resource management are often used interchangeably, but there is a distinction between these two terms [8] HR professionals are valued because of the value of human talent. At first glance, it may seem that this issue is related to semantics. However, this change represents a fundamental change in the way employees and future employees are organized, and it also affects all interactions with people, including recruitment, development, coordination, evaluation, and, of course, employee retention. One of the goals of talent management programs is to achieve the valuable goals of the stakeholders. In this regard, it helps to optimize the performance of human resources in the organization. Perhaps talent management has changed the focus of human resource management from considering employees as sources of capital to the concept of employees as people who should be treated fairly and their human status and dignity considered. This change in concept has been accompanied by a change in position in human resource management towards management away from authority and control and joint decision-making between managers and employees. Therefore, human resource management as a task plays an important role in the organization’s strategies [9].

3 Talent and talent management

The primary concept of talent management was introduced in the late 1990 s when a group of McKinsey consultants coined the term war for talent [10]. The word “talent” is thousands of years old and linguists have examined how the term has varied greatly in terms of time, people, and place. For example, one of the first definitions defines “talent” as a measure of weight used by ancient people. When the value was assigned to a unit of silver, talent became a unit of money. The word talent was introduced to the English language through the Bible. In Matthew 25 : 14– 30, the term tells of a master who was leaving his house to travel, and, before leaving, entrusted his property to his servants. According to the abilities of each servant received five talents. The Greek version of this verse uses the word talent, while the new English translation of the Bible uses the word capital. Today, the term human capital is used in human resources discussions, which is used in some texts as a synonym for talent. In the thirteenth century, the word talent referred to a desire or tendency. In the fifteenth century, it referred to treasure, wealth, income, or natural ability. In the fifteenth century, talent referred to various abilities or competencies and disciplines. In the nineteenth century, talent was considered a talented and capable person.

Therefore, over the centuries, the word talent, which began its life as a unit of weight and then as a currency, took on new meanings in medieval Europe and changed to special ability or attitude, and talented people were able to show outstanding achievements in the mental and physical fields. Here the emphasis was on distinguishing talent from ordinary skill [11]. Talent management is therefore part of the field of human resource management, which is defined as all the policies, operations, and systems that affect the behavior, attitudes, and performance of employees. In addition, it includes a set of human resource activities that focus on recruiting and retaining a small group of talented employees. Some definitions of talent management are given in Table 1. Talented employees are identified through characteristics such as competencies, skills, abilities, experiences, knowledge, intelligence and enthusiasm, and the ability to learn and grow. Compared to other human resources and employees, they are a key strategic resource of the organization because they have the greatest impact on the performance and competitive advantage. They are valuable, rare, and unmitigated [12].

4 Talent management models

Numerous models in the talent management literature have been proposed by various experts and theorists, for example, Phillips and Roper’s Talent Management model is designed for the real estate service industry based on organizational values and competencies and includes attracting, selecting, engaging, developing, and retaining employees. At the heart of this model are the core competencies and values of the organization, and these factors are interconnected through a continuous process, strategy, implementation, and evaluation. Talent management begins and develops from the core of this model. High-performing organizations have a strong culture. Culture includes the values, characteristics, behaviors, and actions of the members of the organization. Behaviors that are associated with a certain level of performance are defined as competencies and when the members of the organization associate themselves with the type of organization and its main characteristics, it is called value.

The next model was presented by Wellins, Smith, and Rogers [30]. This model is based on the organization’s vision and goals, and the demand for talent. This demand is determined based on the cultural and strategic priorities of the organization. After determining the required talents, it enters the stage of talent management, which currently manages the organization’s talents and it consists of five stages: identifying existing potentials, evaluating their readiness, developing talents, selecting and applying talents, and emphasizing their performance. The next model is proposed by Collings and Melahi [31]. This model includes four output components, namely the identification of key positions, the development of a source of talent, and the creation of a separate human resource structure and headquarters.

According to the model, using the internal labor market and the external labor market formed a repository of talents, and we use them to fill vital positions in the organization. The main results of using this model can be work motivation, organizational commitment, and extra-role behavior these factors directly affect the company’s performance. Another model called the “Coalesced Framework” of talent Management and employee performance was introduced in 2015 by Mensah [4]. This model consists of three parts of talent management, talent management output, and employee performance. This model refers to the position of the talent management system in the organization. The next model was presented by Oppong and Gold [32] and has three stages input, process, and result. The values and cultural practices of Ghana are considered as input. The five elements of identification, training, and development, maintenance and operation, deployment, and reward share shape the talent management process.

The Collings and Melahi model addresses the market gap, but the components of talent management are not fully integrated into the model. Mensah completes Collings and Melahi’s talent management framework and the results of talent management are well expressed in the two parts of talent management output and employee performance in this model. The talent management process in the framework of Oppong and Gold talent management has been well studied.

In the following, some of the research conducted in the field of talent management have been reviewed:

Krishnan and Scullion [33] in a study entitled “Talent management and dynamic view of talent in small and medium enterprises” believe that talent management is one of the key issues for leaders in global multinational corporations. Despite the importance of small and medium-sized enterprises, there is little research on talent management in this area, especially conceptual research. This research tries to fill this gap by providing a theoretical logic for the difference between large and small and medium enterprises in their talent management and human resource practices.

Foteini Kravarity et al. [34] in the research “Talent management and performance in the public sector: the role of organizational and line managerial support for development” investigates talent management in the public sector context of Bahrain addressing an important research gap. Drawing on organizational support theory and strategic human resource management literature, the researchers test the role of line managerial support for the development and organizational support for development as mechanisms through which talent management practices influence individual talent performance. Results from a survey based on a talent pool of a Bahraini governmental administrative institution show that line managerial support for development fully mediates the relationship between talent management practices.

Ishiyama [35] in the research “The impact of the talent management mechanism and self-perceived talent status on work engagement: the case of Japan” investigate the connection between the talent management (TM) mechanism and work engagement with a perceived moderating effect of the self-perceived talent status on work engagement. The results demonstrate that the TM mechanism and the self-perceived talent status have mutually exclusive and positive effects on work engagement.

Boulander et al. [36] in their research “The practice of talent management: A framework and typology” developed a deeper understanding of the conceptual and practical boundaries of talent management so that researchers and managers can increase their knowledge in the field of talent management and how it works. The method of this research was a comparative study that has been done on talent management in 30 organizations in Sweden. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with 56 organizational representatives and analyzed through the qualitative content analysis method. The findings show four distinct types of talent management, i.e. human, competitive, elite, and entrepreneurial type.

Ingram and Glod [37] in a study entitled “Talent management in healthcare organizations: Qualitative research results” believe that the need for skilled employees, who can be considered talented, has been emphasized in these organizations. Studies conducted in healthcare organizations are rare. In this study, five semi-structured interviews were conducted to select different healthcare organizations in Poland. The collected data were qualitatively analyzed during the interview. Finally, theoretical concepts in the form of hypotheses and practical applications were presented as a list of appropriate talent management operations for healthcare organizations.

Sonnenberg et al. [38] conducted a study entitled “The role of talent-perception incongruence ineffective talent management”. This study examines the impact of talent management on various psychological contract strategies. The results of the analysis of 2660 respondents in 21 organizations emphasize the importance of paying attention to incompatibility in the perception of talent. Incompatibility occurs when executives in an organization consider a person to be talented when the person is unaware of it, and also when executive agents do not consider a person to be talented while that person is talented.

In an article entitled “Talent management and creating high-performing organizations,” Coulson [39] argues that many contemporary approaches to talent management are inappropriate. This article summarizes some of the key findings from a five-year study of faster and more cost-effective ways to build high-performance organizations and its purpose is to provide a practical and cost-effective way to do business. The results showed that hiring exceptional people can cause many problems if not managed properly. The presence of talented people is not noticeable for organizations that cannot harness and use this talent. Talent must be commensurate with the goals of the organization and what it seeks to do.

Koohi Khor et al. [40] conducted a study entitled “Meta-synthesis model of integrated talent management”. Researchers have studied the subject in detail and depth through a meta-synthesis method and combined the results of previous research. In this regard, by searching Web science (2008-2018), Magiran, and the journals of the University of Tehran and English books, 106 research in the field of talent management were selected and analyzed for content. Dimensions and codes related to their content were extracted and prioritized using Shannon entropy. According to the research findings, the codes of management and planning succession, learning, engaging talented employees, organizational acceptance, the relationship between talent strategy and business strategy, progress management, and organizational culture, have the most impact.

Akhavan Dorbash et al. [41] conducted a study entitled “Optimal talent management model in the National Iranian Oil Company based on the grounded theory”. To analyze the data, the data coding method was used in three stages open, axial, and selective coding with a grounded theory approach. Findings showed that the optimal model of talent management consists of causal conditions which include internal and external industrial factors, contextual conditions (organizational development), intervening factors (organizational learning), central phenomenon (talent management and development), and action strategy (establishment of a comprehensive performance management system).

Talent management has received a lot of attention in recent years, but much research has focused on developing concepts, structures, and definitions. In most previous studies, only certain aspects of talent management and its relationship with other variables of organizational behavior have been considered but a comprehensive model for this purpose has not been provided. Therefore, it can be said that few studies have paid attention to the whole phenomenon of talent management from causal conditions and effective interventions the phenomenon to the phenomenon itself, its definition, phenomena strategies, and finally the consequences of the phenomenon in the form of a conceptual model. Research over the past two decades, despite understanding the concept of talent management, still needs to provide a comprehensive model of talent management in the workplace.

5 Research methodology

The present research is conducted with mixed method. That is, first qualitative data is collected through interviews and then analyzed. Then, quantitative data is collected and analyzed, and in the end, interpretations and conclusions are made.

In the qualitative part, data was collected by the review of domestic and international articles and semi-structured interviews as well as documents of MSC. Interviews were conducted with 15 managers and experts by targeted sampling method (Table 3). To analyze the data, the comparative method of Strauss and Corbin including three stages of open coding, axial coding, and selective coding was used. The analysis of the interviews led to the extraction of 86 concepts, which were classified in 5 categories including causal conditions, central phenomenon, background factors, strategies, and consequences. In the quantitative stage, 1600 managers and experts in MSC were selected as the statistical population, and based on the Karjesi-Morgan table, the sample size was estimated to be 310 people and the data was collected by a researcher-made questionnaire. The validity of the questionnaire was confirmed through the content validity ratio and the content validity index (The results are shown in Table 4) and then it was distributed. Out of 310 distributed questionnaires, 300 questionnaires were returned. Structural equation modeling and confirmatory factor analysis with Amos software were used for data analysis.

6 Research findings

6.1 qualitative findings

The first step of the interview is about the concept of talent management and talent. Then questions were asked about the need for talent management, the existence or non-existence of a coherent talent management system in the organization, and managers’ awareness of the need to design a talent management system in the organization. In addition to these questions, some issues were raised during the interview that also affected the research from the researcher’s point of view and was analyzed. After that, the interviews were analyzed and 87 concepts were extracted, which were classified into 10 sub-categories and finally 5 main categories. In the following, while introducing each of the dimensions and features of this model, the coding and classification process is described. Table 5 shows an example of the initial interview coding.

Extracted concept Interview text

Changing the paradigm from traditional HR management to modern HR management One of the factors influencing talent management is how human resource management, recruitment, and retention systems are performed. How flexible is it? We must be flexible in the human resource management system. It must be different in every way.

Organization culture Naturally, the people who enter the system will feel the difference when the leadership of the organization and the way it looks at the people of the organization when it is in the form of capital and values the talent and potential that exists in individuals. Or when the leader views the people in the organization as workers, these views are very effective in a bad way.

Differentiation of individual characteristics and abilities The ability of people to do things differently may be a physical ability, for example, someone who has athletic talent, either it is a mental ability or it is in a skill such as effective communication. The potential that a person has and this potential can be different. In talent, it is important to be able to differentiate and make a difference.

Talent Management Acceptance To implement talent management, we need to change people’s attitudes well. Because our top managers are from the previous generation and the concepts are related to the new generation, it is difficult for them to understand these concepts. But we must be able to make the connection between the generations and their thoughts.

Distinguish the salaries and benefits of individuals based on performance It is very important to care about the person and to be involved in the work and to be right in the work that interests her/his. When an expert sees that she/he is no different from someone who does not do something, she is not very motivated to work. Most key people in the organization do not care much about rewards, but more value is important to them. These are the factors that keep the person in the organization and increase the sense of belonging.

Learning and informativeness of the position The people we keep in the organization feel very bad that they are not learning anything from the day before. All employees need to feel that they are learning, and that learning is not just about training, it is about the work process. Learning from a higher level than oneself, for example, people learn a lot from their manager. The manager is very effective in growth and development. My selection criteria for the unit were where the manager taught me something. On-the-job training. I think personality training is more important. For example, meeting methods, decision-making methods, and training that convey the tacit knowledge of individuals.

As shown in Table 6, codes have been extracted from the text of the interviews that will be considered as the basis for the work in the following steps. In the next step, the codes that convey the same concept and complement each other, are categorized in the form of general concepts and categories. They were classified into five categories such as causal conditions, strategies, central phenomena, intervening factors, and consequences.

Selective coding (based on the results of two previous coding steps) as the main stage of theorizing is given in Table 6.

According to the identified factors and their classification, the talent management model can be presented as shown in Fig. 1. Once the components of talent management have been identified, they will shape strategies alongside existing contexts and factors that somehow facilitate or limit the process. Finally, the implementation of these strategies will have consequences at the individual and organizational levels.

Fig. 1

In conclusion, the talent management model is designed as it is shown below

6.2 Findings in the quantitative section: Model estimation

After the theoretical formulation of the model to explain the research topic and measure the defined latent variables, it is necessary to discuss model estimation and analysis of general and partial indicators of the model, to determine whether the partial data support the theoretical model or not.

To determine how acceptable the indicators are for measurement models, all measurement models must first be analyzed separately. Based on the adoption of such an approach, first, six measurement models related to variables are tested separately. General model Fit indicators for measurement models (confirmatory factor analysis) are presented in Table 7.

As the results show, the normalized chi-square value is between 1 and 5, it can be concluded that the chi-square value is suitable for measurement patterns. The comparative Fit Index(CFI) Incremental Fit Index(IFI)and GFI(goodness of fit index) are greater than 0.9 and it indicates a good fit of the data from the model. Root Mean Square Residual or RMR for these models is less than 0.08 and a is a small value, which also indicates a small error in the models and their acceptable fit. Finally, it can be concluded that the measurement models have a good fit. In other words, the general indicators confirm that the data supports the models well.

After the measurement models were analyzed separately, the results of the factor analysis of all models are presented to test the acceptability of the factor load related to each question and as can be seen in Table 8, convergent validity is accepted.

7 Discussion and conclusion

7.1 Conclusion

In the current competitive situation and in an environment where continuous change and innovation are its main feature, only organizations that understand the strategic role of their human resources and have skilled, knowledge-based, competent, elite, and capable human resources will succeed. One of the problems in the organizational systems of Iran and MSC is always the selection and absorption of desirable people based on appropriate indicators. Therefore, it is necessary to identify the types of talent correctly and objectively to select the right people based on the needs of the jobs. When the wrong choice is made, subsequent human resources actions such as salaries, benefits, and training cannot compensate for it.

In the current research, an effort has been made to identify the concept of talent management, the causal, intervening, contextual conditions, and the strategies and consequences of the talent management system in MSC and to design a model of talent management in MSC.

Therefore, based on the results of the present study, distinguishing the potential force is considered a central phenomenon that includes two dimensions differentiation of individual characteristics and differentiation of personality traits. Factors such as professional background, participation in courses, level of education, and the like are considered individual characteristics of the talented force. And factors such as the degree of achievement motivation, friendship and support for each other, and the ability to influence others are classified in the category of personality traits.

Before entering the talent management process, contextual factors must be provided to enable the movement in this, among these factors, are the necessary infrastructures in some human resources subsystems such as job analysis, human resources planning, management performance, performance-based service compensation, etc. In addition, to evaluate talented employees, the knowledge, skills, abilities, or in other words, competencies required for the jobs should be specified. Concerning the implementation of the evaluation center in MSC, this tool helps the company to have a more effective tool to measure the skills of employees. In discovering talent, MSC should try to specify their expectations and plans from the talent management system. For which job or job groups they need to cultivate talented staff and what characteristics should the talented staff have for this job to be able to perform above the expected level, should be determined. Talented forces are evaluated and the names of known talented forces are registered in the talent treasury. The evaluation at this stage can be done through tools such as the evaluation center or other alternative tools that can measure the skills and potential of individuals. In the development of the talented force, the strengths and weaknesses in the evaluation stage It has been identified for the human force, and steps are taken toward their development and training. By using the performance management tool, it is possible to set goals and provide appropriate feedback to the talented forces. In the retention phase, MSC makes its efforts to preserve and maintain the talented force, this work can be done through compensating competitive services, considering extraordinary incentives or welfare facilities, and many financial and non-financial methods.

If the talent management system is properly implemented, it will have consequences at the individual and organizational levels: at the individual level It will lead to an increase in the satisfaction of the talented forces and increase their productivity, and due to the increase in the sense of organizational justice and the consideration of the human force as a whole, it will increase the sense of commitment and satisfaction in all employees. At the organizational level, it will lead to Increasing effectiveness and efficiency, establishing a merit-oriented environment, and keeping people in the organization Improving organizational climate, becoming an organization with excellent performance, organizational entrepreneurship.

7.2 Discussion

During the research, in addition to conducting interviews and analyzing them, many talent management models compiled by other researchers were examined, at the end, the output of the model was compared with previous models to determine their similarities and differences.

In “Coalesced Framework” of talent management and employee performance of Mensah [6], dimensions and components of talent management are considered as talent management, talent absorption, and axial situations, which is different from the model of this study. Oppong and Gold [32] also defined the dimensions and components of talent management as identification, training, and development, maintenance and operation, deployment, and reward, in a model entitled Talent Management in the Ghanaian Gold Mining, Industry which is not in line with the present study. In Dorbash et al [41] model, talent management and development are considered a central phenomenon that includes eight sub-categories including talent thinking, talent search, talent assessment, talent development, talent scheduling, talent mastery, talent management, and talent hiring ‘which is again different from the model extracted from this research. Also, the establishment of a comprehensive performance management system is considered a strategy that is not similar to the present study. In another model presented by Tahmasebi et al. [42] entitled Talent Management: A Grounded Theory, the central phenomenon is considered a two-core human resource architecture, human resource differentiation, and talent-based structure, which is similar to this research in terms of differentiation. Strategies in this model are considered as identifying, retaining, and improving talents that are consistent with the components of the present study. In addition, in terms of the stages and the type of research, this research is in line with the research of Koohi Khor et al. [40], and Akhavan Durbash et al. [41].

In all models of talent management, the three key components of absorption, selection, development, and maintenance should be considered because these three components are indispensable in talent management.

7.3 Future research

More research can be done on the relationship between the three variables of talent acquisition, talent retention, and career development path management with financial performance and non-financial performance variables that can be very effective for the development and progress of organizations in the future. Moreover, scientific studies and in-depth studies in the processes of talent management and understanding of the concepts in this field can in turn be useful in improving the selection systems and retaining and promoting employees of departments and organizations in the country. And from this approach, by placing distinct talents in their proper place, we can see higher levels of performance in organizations.

In addition, this research and its results will be considered an important step in the development of scientific management research, especially in the field of human resource management, and will close the gap that exists theoretically and practically in this field at the national level and will enrich the scientific texts in this regard. The findings of this study show that the questionnaire taken from the factors identified in the organization is valid. Therefore, this model can be implemented in this organization. The proposed model in this study helps to have a better understanding of talent management in the organization and helps managers and politicians to manage this phenomenon efficiently and optimally. Formulating and designing a talent management model makes it possible to fill the practice gap of the issue in the organizational context. So the proposed model can help the organization to identify improvements in the talent management process in the organization. This study can help the managers of organizations in hiring and attracting talented people by identifying the components and indicators of talent management and discovering the characteristics of talented people. Because talented people are inside the organizations and in different places and environments, outside the organization. But the issue here is how to identify and employ these talented forces so that investing in this area, in the long run, will increase the performance and productivity of the organization.
