The workforce, known by different names such as employees, resources, talent, and jobholders, is an organization’s most precious asset. They have the required potential, skills, and knowledge to achieve the organization’s goals. Their management has been described as a practice of attraction, selection, development, and retention (Hausknecht et al., 2009; and Ingmar et al., 2013). Four generic philosophies regarding talent management drafted by Collings and Mellahi (2009) are the People approach, Practices approach, Position approach, and Strategic pools approach, which introduce talent management as vital for the organization.
