Abstract

Talent management has been on the agenda of many organizations in recent years because of the belief in the importance of talent in achieving organizational excellence. The purpose of this study is to infer the conceptual model of behavioral factors affecting talent management. Therefore, applying the Meta-Synthesizing technique, researchers studied the findings of the articles which exist in valid databases in a systematic manner using Sandolowski and Barso's seven-step method. Then, after multiple screenings, they selected 36 appropriate articles for deeper study. To this end, behavioral factors affecting talent management were extracted and conceptual model analyses and inferences were obtained with the help of coding tools and MAXQDA v. 10 software. It is expected that the results and design of this model by improving the understanding the effective behavioral concepts on potential Human resource drive talent management to the desired status and become an appropriate tool for achieving organizational goals.
