Human Capital and Talent Management
Introduction
Employees form one of the most crucial assets in an organization. They possess the skills, knowledge, and experience that are necessary for the company’s success. However, organizations often fail because they lack proper human capital management strategies. When employees leave the company, they go with their expertise which causes the firm to incur additional costs in hiring and training new employees. It is, therefore, necessary for an organization to design strategies that attract crucial talent and promote employee satisfaction while they remain for long periods without leaving the company.
