Description

The introduction explains that resourcing and talent management are among the most important functions of human resource management (HRM). Organizations depend on attracting, selecting, developing, and retaining talented employees to achieve their strategic goals and maintain a competitive advantage.

The introduction emphasizes the following key ideas:

• People are a strategic resource. An organization’s success depends largely on recruiting and retaining employees with the right knowledge, skills, and abilities.
• Resourcing is more than recruitment. It includes workforce planning, employer branding, recruitment, selection, onboarding, retention, succession planning, and managing employee exits.
• Talent management is strategic. Organizations need systematic approaches to identify high-potential employees, develop their capabilities, and prepare future leaders.
