Systematic Literature Review: What Factors Influence Talent Management Among Secondary School Teachers in Malaysia?
Abstract
Talent management is regarded as a critical component in ensuring an organization's long-term viability. Furthermore, talent management for the education sector in Malaysia has recently captured attention of researchers. On the other hand, despite the fact that the focus in the context of talent management was clearly stated in the Malaysia Education Blueprint 2013–2025, talent management in education still has room for improvement in order to ensure a better future for our education sector. For example, only few researchers are conducting research on aspects of talent management in education, such as talent identification, teacher talent development, teacher retention, school talent culture, and so on. As a result, the primary goal of this article is to review the research article with a systematic review as an added value. PRISMA is used to guide the review process (the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analyses). To obtain the published article, however, three databases were used: Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar. According to the articles, four themes emerged from the articles. The themes are as follows: 1) teacher talent identification; 2) professional development for teachers; 3) teacher retention; and 4) school talent culture. As a result of the thematic analysis in this SLR article, the talent management for education model and approach can be used by policymakers, school administrators, and others to ensure that teachers in their organization are retained.
