Abstract:
The objective of this paper is to analyze the mediatory role of organizational factors linking the human resource management practices and talented employee retention. To attain this objective, the paper employs the analytical technique provided by Barn and Kenny (1986). Human resource matrix is taken as a function of four variables such as compensation package, person organization-fit, challenging opportunity and training and development. Organizational factors also involve four variables such as working environment, organizational culture and policy, leadership behavior and teamwork relationship. The experiment has been accomplished in a private higher academic environment in Bangladesh collecting data from 54 talented faculty members. The results show that organizational environment plays an important mediatory role in linking human resource management and talent faculty retention. Thus, the findings
of the study imply that organizational variables are at least equally important as important as the human resource variables in order to retain the talent retention in an organization. It is also important that this finding will not only contribute to formulate the retention strategy for an academic institution, but also for any non-academic organizations as well.
