From the report: “While the Army references talent management and even considers it key to achieving its modernization strategy, the concept remains elusive in practice. There is an intricate relationship between talent management principles and the Army’s Talent Management Model, focusing on strategies to enhance organizational effectiveness and personnel development within the military setting. As developing challenges across the Department of Defense (DoD) demand a highly skilled and adaptable workforce, the Army’s Talent Management Model serves as a framework for identifying, developing, and sustaining the talent necessary for mission success. This study examines key strategies, models, terms, and concepts with special emphasis on identifying opportunities for improvement. By analyzing existing Army guidance and practices, as well as historically successful talent management concepts, this paper provides suggestions to enhance the Army's talent management approach. The findings suggest that effective talent management not only fosters individual growth but also enhances overall operational readiness and efficiency. The research highlights the importance of a responsive yet straightforward and strategic approach to talent management in the Army, ultimately contributing to a more capable and lethal force.”
