Abstract
BACKGROUND: Talent management plays an essential role as part of the HRM function in managing all employees, resulting in high performance. The role of human resources management has rapidly changed from focusing solely on recruitment, employee benefits and payroll to strategic human resources, focusing on sustaining and driving business strategies. OBJECTIVES: This study sought to determine the extent to which electronic human resource management and talent management principles were used in Jordanian universities. Additionally, it examined how electronic human resource management, including its components of hiring, training, and performance evaluation, might affect talent management in public universities. METHODS: The study sample, which included 470 faculty members, deans of faculties, and heads of departments at Jordanian universities, was given a questionnaire. Using the statistical software SPSS, simple and multiple regression were used to test the study’s hypotheses. The arithmetic means, and standard deviations were utilized to determine the levels of application of the study variables from the faculty’s point of view. RESULTS: The results of the study revealed that the application level of electronic human resource management and talent management is medium. There is a statistically significant effect of electronic human resources management on talent management. Multiple regression was used to test the sub-hypotheses that showed a statistically significant effect of training and electronic performance evaluation on talent management and the absence of an effect of electronic recruitment on talent management. CONCLUSION: Jordanian universities use electronic human resources management for operational rather than strategic purposes. Therefore there is no need to improve the infrastructure for electronic human resources management and talent management and align that with the general strategy of universities.
期刊介绍:
Human Systems Management (HSM) is an interdisciplinary, international, refereed journal, offering applicable, scientific insight into reinventing business, civil-society and government organizations, through the sustainable development of high-technology processes and structures. Adhering to the highest civic, ethical and moral ideals, the journal promotes the emerging anthropocentric-sociocentric paradigm of societal human systems, rather than the pervasively mechanistic and organismic or medieval corporatism views of humankind’s recent past. Intentionality and scope Their management autonomy, capability, culture, mastery, processes, purposefulness, skills, structure and technology often determine which human organizations truly are societal systems, while others are not. HSM seeks to help transform human organizations into true societal systems, free of bureaucratic ills, along two essential, inseparable, yet complementary aspects of modern management: a) the management of societal human systems: the mastery, science and technology of management, including self management, striving for strategic, business and functional effectiveness, efficiency and productivity, through high quality and high technology, i.e., the capabilities and competences that only truly societal human systems create and use, and b) the societal human systems management: the enabling of human beings to form creative teams, communities and societies through autonomy, mastery and purposefulness, on both a personal and a collegial level, while catalyzing people’s creative, inventive and innovative potential, as people participate in corporate-, business- and functional-level decisions. Appreciably large is the gulf between the innovative ideas that world-class societal human systems create and use, and what some conventional business journals offer. The latter often pertain to already refuted practices, while outmoded business-school curricula reinforce this problematic situation.
