Von der hinteren Coverseite

Digital Talent Management advances the concept of 'digital talent' and delineates strategies to attract, develop and retain them amidst large-scale digital transformation and an unpredictable future. It integrates existing, albeit fragmented, streams of scientific research on talent management and digital work, as well as empirical evidence from the information technology and communication industry.

The book argues that digital talent is becoming increasingly essential to organizations across multiple industries and sectors. Organizational success will therefore depend on the ability to attract and develop digital talent in ways that support digital talent retention.

The authors call for a new, specific breed of talent management, referred to as 'digital talent management' (DTM). DTM addresses the questions of what characterizes digital talent, and how these distinctive characteristics should be integrated into organizational talent management strategies and practices in a human-centered way.
