Features: This book is divided into five important parts: Part 1 describes the development of talent movement in industrial and organizational psychology and clearly defines the term "talent." Part 2 lists definitions and provides scoring standards for talent, which can predict outstanding performance in most jobs. This section presents case studies of the general talent dictionary, including 21 talents commonly used to distinguish high performers from average performers. These talent categories and definitions are based on the results of 286 studies. Part 3 provides methods for designing talent research, conducting behavioral event interviews, analyzing data, and developing talent models. Part 4 presents research findings showing that talent effectively predicts performance in sales, technical/professional, service, management, and entrepreneurial roles. Part 5 explains how talent data is used in human resource management in society and the future, including recruitment, selection, placement, succession planning, development, career planning, competency-based pay, and integrated human resource management information systems.
