Talent Management strategies and their impact on Organizational Prosperity: An analytical survey study of the lecturers in Some Iraqi universities

Abstract

The current research deals with two basic variables, talent management strategies and organizational prosperity, which have occupied a large space and are among the most important priorities of organizations in general and universities in particular. It includes diagnosing and evaluating the relationships of association and influence between them. The problem of the research lies in the lack of awareness of the importance of talent management strategies and their practice and identifying the level of their availability in the universities under study. One of the most important goals sought to provide a framework that defines the type and nature of talents required in the universities under study. The research relied on a questionnaire form to collect the necessary data. To achieve the research objectives, a deliberate sample of (78) teachers with talents and abilities was selected in several Iraqi universities (Al-Furat Al-Awsat Technical, Karbala, Babylon, and Kufa) using the statistical program (SPSS,v.25). Descriptive and inferential statistics were used in analysing the data. The current research reached many conclusions, including that the relationships of association and influence were positive between the variables and the availability of many talents and abilities and their investment to achieve competitiveness, sustainability, and improve the university environment, and that talent management strategies represent a behavioral path and a self-feeling and they need To crystallize a clear framework and philosophy that is more important than those possessed by universities. The research concluded that it is necessary to benefit from digital transformation and artificial intelligence to change the functional and environmental reality and adopt a strategy to protect talents and establish independent management concerned with providing social and economic care to raise the level of its classifications among universities in neighbouring countries.
