Abstract
Given that talent management (TM) is still a developing concept, it is frequently stated that more conceptual and empirical studies are needed to complete its development and to be recognised as a discipline. This study is one of the first attempts to comprehensively define TM functions conceptually. Using the F-AHP method, the study also provides a more robust and valid view of the identified functions and prioritises them for one specific service industry: container shipping. The most prioritised and effective function is talent development. The findings provide a resource for organisations wanting to implement TM and a benchmark tool for organisations already implementing TM.

IJHRDM is established to cover all issues that arise when dealing with the most important of all resources - the human resource. This includes issues that are related to their growth and development as a tool in the workplace (e.g. skill training and proficiency enhancement) and in managing them effectively as a resource. The workplace is defined very broadly - it could be in a manufacturing setting or in a service setting in a changing and dynamic global environment. IJHRDM provides a refereed and authoritative source of information on aspects of human resources development and management, in manufacturing and services enterprises in a changing and dynamic global environment.
