Ms Boontip Boonbumroongsuk (CMMU Ph.D. Candidate) presented her research on the effects of perceived talent management practices on work-related outcomes at the 6th Workshop on Talent Management held in Barcelona, Spain from 2 – 3 October 2017. Organized by the European Institute for Advanced Studies in Management, this workshop follows on from the five previous highly successful workshops on talent management held in Brussels in 2012 and 2013, Berlin in 2014, Valencia in 2015 and Copenhagen in 2016. Hosted by The Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC), the workshop took place in the premises of the fabulous modernist building, the Palau Macaya.
The chairpersons for the 2017’s workshop are as follows:
Professor David Collings, Dublin City University, Ireland
Assistant Professor Eva Gallardo-Gallardo, ETSEIB - UPC, Spain (local host)
Professor Hugh Sculllion, Hull University, UK
Professor Vlad Vaiman, California Lutheran University, U.S.A. (Coordinating Chairperson)
A growing academic community from 19 nations
This workshop is considered the most prestigious arena intended to provide a forum for academic debate on the rapidly growing field of talent management. It attracts many prominent members of the talent management academic community, including Professor Wayne Cascio, Dr. Marian Thunnissen and Professor Kristiina Mäkelä, and also participants from the industry (Dr. Dagmar Daubner-Siva, Adidas Headquarters, Germany).
Abstract: This study examines the relationship between perceived talent management practices and work-related outcomes (job satisfaction, turnover intentions, organizational citizenship behavior, in-role behavior, organizational commitment, work motivation, work-life balance and job stress, psychological contract fulfillment, perceived overall justice, employee engagement and employee brand identification). Additionally, the difference between employees who are included in their organization’s talent pool (Group A) and those who are not included (Group B) are also examined. Online surveys were conducted with 5 organizations totaling 552 respondents from Thailand. The results show that there are significant relations between perceived talent management practices and work-related outcomes, however, expected differences are not observed between Group A and Group B, suggesting that talent management efforts and investments are currently not producing expected effects amongst the selected group of talented employees.
