HRM practitioners and academics have been blindsided by unprecedented changes in the global war on talent. In response, Global Talent Management During Times of Uncertainty offers a multi-disciplinary perspective that identifies emerging global issues and new strategic and research approaches.This volume explores uncertain contexts related to socio-political and socio-economic change. Chapters investigate how rapidly evolving national policies and social and cultural contexts influence the attraction, management, and retention of mobile talent, and consider how such uncertainty may continue to affect post-pandemic global talent management (GTM). Manuscripts in this global volume touch on diverse cultural and geographic contexts, including Canada, the United States, Brazil, Russia, the Ukraine, Norway, Denmark, China, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom.Authors highlight how GTM is influenced by disinformation, cultural differences, and multiple business environments. Scholars identify the importance of cross-disciplinary talent strategies involving military leadership principles when facing uncertainty caused by macro events. GTM practices may not work effectively in a local context but political city initiatives provide avenues for shared regional talent strategies.We delve into perspectives of sustainability, including: the loss of highly skilled workers to more developed countries, the underutilization of skilled immigrants, the retention of post-pandemic healthcare workers, the cultural differences leading to misunderstanding of justice perceptions, and the lasting effects of war and the pandemic on GTM.

Retaining top talent is a universal concern that is increasingly global. However, the context, meaning, and mechanisms for changing jobs varies around the world. Global Talent Retention: Understanding Employee Turnover Around the World provides the first context-specific global perspective on retaining talent.Although extensive research informs understanding of why employees decide to leave or remain with organizations, the bulk of theory and research adopts a U.S.-centric perspective, problematic because most employees do not work for firms that are U.S.-owned or based. Global Talent Retention addresses the need for turnover theory and research to give more careful consideration to global and cross-cultural perspectives on employee retention, and includes contributions from a global range of scholars in differing cultural contexts in Africa, Asia, Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East.The chapters represent many of the largest and most dynamic economies in the world, including Bulgaria, China, Denmark, Germany, India, Mexico, South Africa, South Korea, Spain, Turkey, and the UK. Each chapter provides a description of the institutional, legal, and cultural context as it relates to employee mobility, a review of context-specific research leading to a description of how the mechanisms of prominent turnover theories may operate differently in particular contexts, and the implications for research and practice related to employee turnover and retention.
