Abstract

The focus of competition in the post globalization period is concentrated around functional, process and product quality. The quality is invariably linked with the potential and performance of the human resources. The core competencies are the tangible and intangible possessions of an organization. The talent management is an important organizational initiative to acquire, retain and develop the talent.

A mature organization identifies the key elements of talents and integrates with its strategic business and corporate interests. The competency standards are the desired outcomes and this paper critically examines the GMR experience in integrating talent management with competency requirements.

GMR model is comparatively different with emphasis on competency-talent linkage. The consistent performance of the group is a testimony of how it utilizes manpower talents to create core competencies based on four pillars i.e. lead self, lead others, lead business and lead change.
