Abstract | ||||
This research was designed to explore the determinants of talent retention in the Egyptian domain. Analysis of extant literature was conducted to determine the factors that affect talent retention. Mixed methodologies of qualitative as well as quantitative techniques were adopted whereby; focus groups were formulated followed by thematic analysis. The results of the thematic analysis results were refined and combined in a questionnaire format that was distributed among employees through human resources departments who distributed them to the talented workforce based on defined criteria. Data collection was conducted electronically whereby common method bias was considered. Moreover, statistical analysis was run utilizing all the appropriate statistical techniques and tests. Results revealed that the proposed factors could be classified into two groups namely, In-House factors and External factors. In-House factors included financial, career development, bonding, and HRM practices. Besides, the External factors (organizational image, market conditions, political conditions and brain drain). Furthermore, Agriculture, Communication, Manufacturing, Recreational and Entertainment, and Aviation sectors reported higher talent retention rates compared to Educational, Financial and Healthcare sectors | ||||
