This theoretical and empirical study of Global Talent Management (GTM) analyzes the four major theory and practice gaps of GTM as identified in the literature. It proposes three operationalizations of GTM and empirically analyzes their impact on perceived firm performance. A thorough literature review provides the framework for the operationalizations of GTM. The empirical analysis includes a replication of six scales using a sample of Talent from firms using GTM systems. These scales represent the constructs of the three operationalizations of GTM. Then a series of multiple regression equations analyze the impact of the operationalizations of GTM on perceived firm performance and perceived hiring practices. The scales are all replicated except for one, thus contributing to the literature. In addition, support for the impact of GTM on perceived firm performance is found. The result is theoretical and empirical support for the impact of GTM on perceived firm performance for a sample of 369 talented individuals in firms using GTM systems.
