Abstract

Public sector organizations are confronted with the intensifying competition for talent and suffer from a chronic shortage of talented people. Drawing upon Talent Management (TM) literature from around the globe, we critically appraise the transferability of this human resource management strategy to the public sector. While TM has received scholarly attention in the private sector, it remains under-researched in the public sector. This study examine the impact of human resource management practices on talent management in public sector. The research adopt the survey and descriptive research design for the study. The population of the study comprises of 300 staff of selected public service in Nigeria. The instrument of data collection is a well structured questionnaire. The method of data analysis is the percentage, graphical and Chi-square statistics, this data were analysed with the aid of SPSS version 21. This study concludes that the currents in public sector reform and there is need to examines how contemporary HRM articulates to the change agenda pursued in the public sector in terms of talent management.

CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

Background of the study

Finding talented people is one of the most important managerial preoccupation for this decade (Iles, Chuai, & Preece, 2010; Stahl et al., 2012; Ulrich & Allen, 2014). Also public sector organizations are confronted with the intensifying competition for talent and some even suffer from a chronic shortage of talented people (Glenn, 2012; Macfarlane, Duberley, Fewtrell, & Powell, 2012). However, there is little academic attention for the specific talent management (TM) issues in public sector organizations, how they define talent, and how successful they are in their battle for talent (Gallardo-Gallardo & Thunnissen, 2016; Thunnissen, Boselie, & Fruytier, 2013). The majority of the TM publications focuses on TM in private sector organizations, multinationals, and organizations in the U.S. context (Gallardo-Gallardo & Thunnissen, 2016; Powell et al., 2012; Vaiman & Collings, 2013). In some empirical TM studies, data are collected in both the public and private sectors (e.g., Kim & Scullion, 2011; Sonnenberg, van Zijderveld, & Brinks, 2014), but differences between the sectors are not considered in discussing the data. Just a handful of publications pay explicit attention to TM issues in nonprofit or public organizations, such as health care institutes (e.g., Groves, 2011; Powell et al., 2012), (higher) education institutes (e.g., Davies & Davies, 2010; van den Brink, Fruytier, & Thunnissen, 2013), or local or central government organizations (e.g., Glenn, 2012; Harrisr & Foster, 2010). Despite the increasing attention for TM in the academic literature over the course of the last decade (Gallardo-Gallardo & Thunnissen, 2016), TM in the public sector is an underexplored field of research. Human Resource Management has as its central focus, ‘managing people within the employer employee relationship’ and involves marshalling the productive capacity of an organization’s members (Stone 2015). Stone suggests the domain of HRM covers the ‘acquisition, development, reward and motivation maintenance and departure’ of employees and typical areas of concern include HR planning and capability audits, recruitment and selection of employees, skill, talent development and training, career progression, performance appraisal, formulating employment conditions and compensation and reward. Further, Wright and Ferris (2016) add that HRM is concerned with understanding and interpreting the legal framework and context regulating conditions of employment and employment relations. Human resource management considers people’s dimension in management since every organization constitute people, acquiring their services, fine-tuning their skills, talent motivating them to higher levels of performance and ensuring that they continue to maintain their commitment to the organization are prerequisites to achieving organizational objectives (Chukwuka 2016). Human resource management (HRM) also refers to the design of formal systems in an organization to ensure the effective and efficient use of human talents to accomplish the organizational goals without sacrificing the needs of the organizational human element, (Mathis and Jackson 2017). An efficient and effective management of human resource in an organization solve the problem of employee turnover. Employee turnover is an enemy of productivity and increases cost of running a business. Human Resources (HR) are the most valuable asset of any organization that is why incessant increase in turnover of skillful human resource in an organization will create a gap that will take time to fill at extra cost. Everywhere around the world, the sole reason of an organization being in business is primarily to achieve its pre-determined objectives. This pre-determined objective can only be achieved when the organizational resources like personnel, machinery, raw materials, capital et cetera are well mobilized and managed. The efficient and effective utilization of these resources, make the difference between well managed and poorly managed organizations Chukwuka (2016).
