Seminar paper from the year 2017 in the subject Leadership and Human Resource - War for Talents, grade: 2, University of applied sciences, Düsseldorf, language: English, abstract: This work defines finding talents as one of the top priorities of human resource management and reviews the practices, strategies and plans that can be implemented in order to attract and retain talented employees. It shows the external and internal channels by which the organizations can acquire the needed talents. At the end, it reviews the challenges facing human resource managers in this framework. Finding the superior talent is the key issue for human resource managers across the world. This issue is being faced by large organizations since the business environment is changing rapidly, and the need for technological skills, professionals and the ability to operate under different conditions is growing fast. According to McKinsey, in addition to skills, knowledge, experience, astute, character and judgment, talent also includes the person ́s ability to learn and grow. The so-called "war for talent" was expressed by the America ́s largest management-consulting firm in 1998 when they published a report stating that "better talent is worth fighting for." The gap between the demand and supply of talented people represents the scarcity of talents which form a challenge for the human resource managers. That brings us to the question, what practices, plans and strategies should be set and implemented by the human resource managers in order to attract and retain talented people? And what are the challenges facing human resource managers in finding the required talents for the organization?

In our modern business landscape, the war for talent is more complex than ever. You need to attract and retain the best talent for your organization to win, but without the right strategy or mindset, you won't be able to compete. If your revenue is declining, you're losing market share to your competition, or your organizational health is deteriorating, it's time to evolve how you approach this never-ending war. After all, your PEOPLE-not your product or service-are your strongest competitive advantage. The Talent War explores how US Special Operations Forces (SOF) assess, select, and develop their world-class talent. You'll learn how to adopt a talent mindset, the single greatest weapon you can possess in the war for talent. When your organization reflects this mindset, you will hire, train, and develop the right people, and put them in the best positions to make decisions that allow you to retake the advantage and win the war.
