Talent Management Planning and Implementation

The competition of the global marketplace has put a premium on hiring, developing, and retaining employees who are knowledgeable, skilled, and experienced (Lockwood, 2006). In order to effectively meet such challenges, talent management planning is necessary to proactively promote forecasting needs, providing opportunities for development, and offering options for filling requirements. However, developing a talent management plan is only the first step, as proper support and implementation of the plan is crucial once it is in place (Lockwood, 2006).
