Talent management is an emerging topic in the field of human resource management.
This particular topic of research is not only important for scholars but also for the industries
operating in the competitive world. Most of the studies focused on private sector employees to
know their perspective regarding talent management system but limited coverage is being given to
public sector. Hence the current study aimed at analyzing the perception of public sector employees
working in Indian banks for identifying the various practices for talent management. The researcher
further investigated the impact of these practices on affective commitment level of employees. The
study is based on survey conducted over 480 employees in 12 Indian public sector banks operating
in Delhi-NCR region of India. The study used various tools and techniques for achieving the
aforesaid objectives such as regression, exploratory factor analysis, and descriptive analysis. The
results of factor analysis identified four practices of talent management which are developing,
acquisition, succession planning and retention of employees. Further regression analysis was
conducted to test the influence of talent development, talent acquisition, and succession planning
and talent retention on the affective commitment of employees working in Indian public sector
banks. The study contributes to the inconsistent research paradigm of the topic by clearly specifying
the talent management activities and its role in the level of commitment.
