Talent Management in the Age of Digital Transformation: HR Practices for the Future

This research paper explores the transformative impact of digital technologies on talent management practices. It examines how digital tools, including artificial intelligence (AI) and data analytics, are reshaping HR functions, from recruitment and employee engagement to learning and development. Key findings indicate that organizations implementing AI-driven recruitment processes experience a 75% reduction in hiring time and a 16% increase in diversity. AI applications in employee development lead to a 25% improvement in retention and a 30% rise in employee satisfaction. The study also highlights challenges such as resistance to digital adoption, managing remote workforces, and addressing skill gaps. Recommendations include investing in AI and automation, personalizing training programs, and fostering a culture of continuous learning. Future research should focus on the long-term effects of digital transformation on organizational culture and employee well-being, as well as the application of emerging technologies like virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) in HR practices. This paper provides valuable insights for HR professionals and organizations aiming to leverage digital tools to enhance their talent management strategies and achieve greater efficiency and employee satisfaction.
