1.1-INTRODUCTION
This new age economy, with its attendant paradigm shifts in relation to the human
capital, in terms of its acquisition, utilization, development and retention, has placed a
heavy demand on todays HR professionals. Today HR is expected to identify potential
talent and also comprehend, conceptualize and implement relevant strategies to
contribute effectively to achieve organizational objectives. Hence a serious concern of
every HR manager in order to survive this War for Talent, is to fight against a limited
and diminishing pool of qualified available candidates to replace valuable employees
when they leave, dramatically underscoring the difficulty to attract, motivate and retain
the best employees in an organization
Today, companies have become fiercely competitive when it comes to attracting and
retaining talent. 75 per cent of the senior executives admit that employee retention is a
major concern today, the obvious reason being the increasing rate of turnover. It is an
accepted truth that turnover will happen and companies need to devise a strategy to curb
unprecedented turnover from affecting organizational success.
Despite intense competition being the key to market development and success,
organizations have failed to identify some of the major reasons which highlight why
good performers leave. In his study,oner major reason why people leave their
organization is because of the organizations failure to bring about a correlation between
pay and performance. Human Resource experts in the industry believe matching the right
blend of talent with the right job profile can lead to superior performance.
By focusing on productivity, organizations are realizing that it is imperative to hire
employees who can do the job and be successful at it. The organization no longer wants
to just hire to hire, in fact they are striving to find the right people, bring them into the
organization and retain their services. One of the critical functions of HR is a sound
Human Resource Planning through which they are able to project the demand for human
resource and thereafter formulate strategies for acquiring them. As the leading HR heads
of the country point out, the solution is not just about finding the correct retention

mechanisms, but it starts from the very beginning by devising ways to acquire the right
people for the right jobs.
Talent management
Talent management refers to the process of developing and integrating new workers,
developing and retaining current workers, and attracting highly skilled workers to work
for your company.
Talent management is a process that emerged in the 1990s and continues to be adopted,
as more companies come to realize that their employees talents and skills drive their
business success. Companies that have put into practice talent management have done so
to solve an employee retention problem. The issue with many companies today is that
many organizations put tremendous effort into attracting employees to their company, but
spend little time into retaining and developing talent. A talent management system must
be worked into the business strategy and implemented in daily processes throughout the
company as a whole. It cannot be left solely to the human resources department to attract
and retain employees, but rather must be practiced at all levels of the organization.
The business strategy must include responsibilities for line managers to develop the skills
of their immediate subordinates. Divisions within the company should be openly sharing
information with other departments in order for employees to gain knowledge of the
overall organizational objectives. Companies that focus on developing their talent
integrate plans and processes to track and manage their employee talent, including the
following:
Sourcing, attracting and recruiting qualified candidates with competitive
backgrounds
Managing and defining competitive salaries
Training and development opportunities
Performance managementprocesses
Retention programs
Promotion and transitioning

Talent management is also known as HCM (Human Capital Management), HRIS (HR
Information Systems), HRMS (HR Management Systems)
Talent DNA
Traditional HR systems approach people development from the perspective of developing
competencies in the organization. This can actually be a risk-prone approach, especially
for companies operating in fast evolving industries, since competencies become
redundant with time and new competencies need to be developed. Talent management on
the other hand focuses on enhancing the potential of people by developing capacities.
Capacities are the basic DNA of an organization and also of individual potential. In fact,
the following appropriately describes the role of talent management:

Measuring Talent
1. Capacity to learn (measured as learning quotient LQ)
Enhancing an individuals capacity to learn improves the persons awareness. It adds to
the persons quest to know more and delve into newer areas. This capacity is developed
by holistic education that teaches how to learn, an enabling environment and good
mentoring
2. Capacity to think (measured as conceptual quotient CQ)
An individuals quest to know more leads his mind to create images. Enhancing an
individuals capacity to think helps the person not only takes learning to a higher level of
intellect but also improves creativity
3) Capacity to relate (measured as relationship quotient RQ)
It is important for an individual to be able to relate to his learning and thoughts. This
leads the person to be able to relate to other individuals and the environment around him.
The outcome is indeed a sense of belongingness and an environment of trust at the
organizational level and team spirit at the individual level
4. Capacity to act (measured as action quotient AQ)
Action is how the above three capacities of an individual are manifested. It is the
individuals ability to enact his intention. The individuals values help in discriminating
amongst alternatives and act as the bedrock for decisions. They act as multipliers in
enhancing the individuals capacities, a sigma of which reflects the individuals true
talent.
Thus:
(LQ + CQ + RQ + AQ) X Values = Talent

EVOLUTION OF TALENT MANAGEMENT
Fig 1.1- evolution of talent management
It explains the evolution of HR function from simple personnel management in the past to
the strategic role in the present scenario. The trend is shifting towards more management
of employees in terms of talent. Competency mapping, performance management are
some of the tools being used for overall integration into the system. Organizations are
giving more authority to employees these days and developing leadership qualities in
them. 3M is a known organization whose main focus is on developing leadership in
employees and constant innovation which helps them build on their leadership. Earlier
the human resource was only a business function, developed into business partner later,
but now is into business integration. It is becoming more integrated with the business
processes. More challenging problems require new processes and systems. It requires
more integration with the different processes in human resource and finally with the
business processes

This figure is talking about talent management which is a an integrated process using
different HR processes. Workforce planning is deciding on the hiring target required for
the year. Then is the process of Recruitment, assessment, evaluation and bringing the
people together. On boarding is when employees are given training and enabled to be
more productive and integrated into the company.
Performance Management in the next step where employer evaluates the employee
performance throughout a period. After this training is provided and their performance is
evaluated. Succession planning is then the next step.There is a continuous need to movepeople into new positions. Succession planning, a very important function, enables
managers and individuals to identify the right candidates for a position. Compensation is
then another vital component and an integral part ofpeoples management. The last is
gap analysis where we see the difference between the actual and desired performance and
try to correct it.

1.2.2-Need of the study
There is a constant pressure on companies to attract the best talent and ensure that
employees join the company and choose to stay in the organization rather than look for
opportunities elsewhere. This study is supposed to find out the existing talent scenario in
insurance sector so as to analyze its emerging challenges and trends.
In an organization, there is nothing more crucial than fitting the right employee in the
right position.. When people do jobs that just don't suit their liking, inclination or
temperament, the results, or rather the lack of them will be disastrously obvious. Low
productivity, dissatisfaction, low morale, absenteeism and other negative behavior will
become obvious in the organization. Or perhaps, there is another option - Talent
Management
Talent management is a wide area to retain different employees in the organization.
Retaining talent is challenge these days. This study will show the relationship of talent
management with different HR practices of organization. It will find how factors like
recruitment, appraisal, and role analysis are effecting the management of talent in an
organization.
Insurance sector faces the challenges of retaining talent these days. As the business
environment is changing, there is more competition in the market and having the best
human resource is a requirement these days. Finding and retaining individuals with right
skill set and competencies placed at right place is a necessity for the achievement of the
objective of organization. So the study of different factors effecting talent management of
organization is important.

1.2.3-Scope Of The Study
The scope of the study is very wide. As it studies the insurance sector, where managing
the talent is a great challenge today , the scope is related to the service sector. Indias
biggest problem is that qualified graduates are becoming scarce. Despite the large
population, the supply of engineers cannot keep up with the sharply increased demand. It
is important to have right set of competent people in the organization at the right place.
Current scenario explains the importance of managing talent in the organization. Hence
the scope of the study is very wide as it determines different factors effecting the talent
management in an organization. Every organization around the world is adopting best
ways to retain and manage the talent which defines the scope of this study.

Literature survey
Patil (2008) states that sustainable competitive will come through investing in people to
build organizational capabilities. he talks from the perspective of Infosys that HR is not
only a support function. HR needs to a spring board to drive business. solving the talent
paradox is not an easy task. but it requires an integrated approach towards talent
management, from planning and sourcing to training, development and retention. Talent
management not only overcomes talent problems but will also win the approval of all
stakeholders with achievement of better results. Infosys Leadership Institute states the
importance of leadership. There is a scramble in market for talent management which
means retaining the best of best employees with the organization. Contributing factorsincludes growing number of retirees, changing business requirement, and competing job
offers. Companies are required to innovate to attain global talent sourcing strategy. right
skill Set and competencies are necessary to face globalised emerging markets.

that they must have the best talent in order to succeed in the hypercompetitive and

(2005) states the role of CEO in talent management this study reveals the increased
participation OF CEO in managing talent of the organization. Different CEOs talk about
their ways of managing the people and the increasing importance of employee
empowerment, placing right people at right job. Strong talent management leads to
greater workforce productivity and other benefits. Indeed, companies are increasingly
realizing that they cannot be successful unless they have a good strategy for developing
talent. Talent management has become important because of the growing recognition that
it helps in driving performance, even though the exact impact is hard to quantify. Many
CEO mentor executives which is an additional part of program and good talent
management is possible with comprehensive development program
Randall (2009) propounded that the environment for most organizations today is global,
complex, dynamic, highly competitive, and extremely volatile, and is likely to remain so
for years to come. In addition to these external conditions, most organizations are also
facing several global challenges including those related to: talent flow; the managing of
two generations of employees, viz., older or mature workers and younger workers; and a
shortage of needed competencies. One major result of these challenges for organizations
is that they have to be global and that they have to be systematic in managing their
human capital if they wish to have any hope of gaining and sustaining a competitive
advantage in the years ahead. Many human resource practitioners and consultants (HR
professionals) are now recognizing this, especially those that operate globally, the
multinational enterprises. Academics are also showing a strong interest as evidenced by
their work in the new area referred to as global talent management. In this article we
review that academic work and attempt to organize that literature by creating an
integrative framework for understanding and advancing further research in global talent
management. To guide this research our framework highlights several selected challenges
in global talent management, and several drivers of those challenges. It also highlights
the potential role of IHRM activities in addressing those selected challenges. A
discussion of possible criteria of global talent management effectiveness completes the
framework. Hopefully this integrative framework may guide further academic research
on global talent management and might also inform the work of HR professionals.

extensible solution for tomorrow through which HR can now establish lasting solutions
and build credible, long-term strategies that support desired business outcomes.
(2009) states that this downturn in the economy has created an environment of mistrust
between employers and employees. But visionary organizations carefully reassessed their
talent management strategy to ensure their biggest asset, their team, was being used as
effectively as possible. It explains the need of talent management, employee engagement
and empowering them to maintain an effective team during such times.
Watson et al focuses ontalent management through the examination of research articles
and primary data to present the scope and definitions of talent management. The paper
discusses issues around the theories and key challenges that materialise in the use and the
scope of the term talent management for hospitality and tourism providers. The paper
presents strategic and operational talent management implications faced by hospitality
and tourism organisations, by exploring the findings from eight interviews and one focus
group with hospitality and tourism providers in Scotland. The conclusions drawn together
key challenges, implications and actions in addressing talent management and forwardsrecommendations.
Liew Chai Hong and Sharan Kaur (2008) stated that employees intention to leave,
however, is zooming in at the organizational and individual levels. One of the
organizational variables used is organizational climate which potentially correlates to
turnover while employees personality is selected in this study as a moderating variable
associated to intention to leave. Employees tend to leave organizations that endure
unfavorable organizational culture. However, organizational culture is something
cemented to the organizations and it is not easy to change. Implementing employee
retention strategies by changing organizational culture could be time-consuming and it
would not probably show significant results in the short term. The process is further
complicated by various types of employees personalities that resist changes. On the

other hand, it would be easier for an organization to improve the organizational climate
that share personalities of the employees which consequently will change the overall
impression and perception of employees towards their work. Over time, positive
organizational culture could be developed and changed based on the stretched norms and
assumptions.
Kang Lin Ong (2008) the importance of non-family executives in family businesses
cannot be over-emphasized as family businesses get passed through generations and
begin to expand in scale. Unless there is a presence of qualified, competent and dedicated
family members willing to fill the management roles within the family business, there
would inevitably come a time when the family business needs to turn to external
professionals to fill the shoes of senior management. Using current literature on non-
family management in family businesses, this paper explained the reasons why highly
talented non-family executives would consider joining family businesses as well as their
grounds for leaving. By integrating the findings from recent studies, this paper also
formulated a basic framework on the hiring and retention issues pertaining to non-family
executives.
Dan Emerson(2007) The article says that the work of HR department has widened today
from employee retention to succession planning, its not just related to hiring and firing or
recruitments and selection, the challenges before hr departments has increased today to a
great extent. Succession planning is a big task and a big challenge. Retirement is also a
major issue to be planned. it talks about three things that are important in present scenario
i.e. developing leadership, developing managerial competencies, and increasing
partnership with costumer through intercultural teams. hiring and firing is a primary
function but the horizons of strategic human resource has widened.
Ellisa Tucher et al (2009) states that it is imperative that orgaisations should manage
people well and the rules for managing the people is changing. most organizations are not
prepared to manage this new generation of talent. Many organization are already
struggling to manage to effectively manage next generation computer. This report reveals
five trends that are shaping the workforce and outlines the unavoidable implications that
-

these workforce changes will have for the practice of talent management. The effort to
counter next generation threats to employees engagement by building a unifying and
compassionate culture will stave off what could be ahuge drain on corporate business
lines- disengaged workers often star performers withholding talent due to mounting
dissatisfaction.
Glen(2006) propounded that, for many organizations, key skills retention, employee
motivation and attendance are key operational, or even strategic issues in that they impact
directly on organization costs, productivity and business performance. Taking a holistic
view of the key elements of the business most likely to impact team engagement,
motivation, attendance and retention (e.g. organizational process, role challenge, values,
work-life balance, information, stake/leverage/reward/recognition, management, work
environment and product/service); linking individual assessment directly to the key
drivers of the business; and recognizing that key talent is likely to thrive on experience-
based career leverage opportunities. A recent Personnel Today employer branding
survey, which included responses from 1,900 senior respondents in the UK, indicated that
employee retention initiatives are foremost in the minds of people tasked with developing
their organizations as an employer of choice Retaining key organizational talent
requires joined-up thinking, a clear business-driver link, and a good deal of thought and
energy.
Judy klein and Stephen A. Miles (2005) states that the dimension around which talent
management revolves has increased and that the organizations which applies talent
management strategies today are only successful and they need to be flexible
accordingly. Talent management has taken on a new dimension in the present
competitive market. It requires an understanding of corporate strategic goals and of the
roles talent plays in reaching them.

A Knowledge Infusion White Paper, (2006) states that as organizations continue to
pursue high performance and improved results through HCM practices, they are taking a
holistic approach to talent managementfrom attracting and selecting wisely, to
retaining and developing leaders, to placing employees in positions of greatest impact.
Meeting this organizational supply and demand requires the right Talent DNA and
supporting technology solutions.
Bersin (2006) states that Talent Management" has become one of the most important
buzzwords in Corporate HR and Training today. In this article we will explain the
history, principles, and processes of talent management and help readers understand our
research agenda in this important area. It explains the shift in human resource arena from
personnel management to strategic human resource and finally talent management is into
the play. Organizations are made up of people: people creating value through proven
business processes, innovation, customer service, sales, and many other important
activities. As an organization strives to meet its business goals, it must make sure that it
has a continuous and integrated process for recruiting, training, managing, supporting,
and compensating these people. Talent Management is a powerful and important trend
across HR. It changes the way things are organized, how one uses technology, how the
resources are allocated, and how it measure what you do.
Kliedman(2005) states the role of CEO in talent management This study reveals the
increased ways of managing the people and the increasing importance of employee
empowerment, placing right people at right job. Strong talent management leads to
greater workforce productivity and other benefits. Indeed, companies are increasingly
realising that they cannot be successful unless they have a good strategy for developing
talent.
Bill Miller (2007) that senior executives often claim that people drive the value of the
business. They are right. According to a recent survey conducted by the Economist
Intelligence Unit for Oracle, senior executives at corporations worldwide judge the ability
to attract and retain people as one of the most critical enablers of growth.1

But they have to be the right people. Every organization relies on key clusters of critical
talent in order to be able to execute its business strategy. These employees drive a
disproportionate share of revenue and earnings. They generate high value for customers
and shareholders. They have strong skills and deep knowledgenot just of the work
itself, but of how to make things happen in the organization. Without such employees,
senior executives would be pushing on a string rather than executing their strategies.
Moreover, the skills and knowledge of such employees ensure that they are in great
demand. They are valuable to their current employers. They may be even more valuable
to their current employers competitors. Without a talent management strategy focused on
keeping critical people engaged including talent maps, targeted training, clear career
paths, job rotation and other development tools critical employees may be sending out
rsums rather than executing the organizations strategy.
Chan (2008) said as signs of economic recovery come into view, HR will be looking
forward to making an even stronger contribution to business success in the coming year.
This article presents ten points of focus for 2010 that no HR practitioner in Hong Kong
and mainland China can afford to miss. These are: 1. putting talent attraction back on
center stage, 2. achieving executive compensation without the controversy, 3. turning the
quest for talent inward, 4. providing greater supply of the right information, 5.
communicating through structured procedures, 6. returning engagement surveys, 7.
Balancing restraint with ambition, 8. fitting in with the regulatory landscape, 9. ruling of
elasticity, and 10. keeping the "grey population" in the business
Haskins and Shafferpropounded that the purpose of this paper is to present a concise,
robust talent development framework for summarizing and guiding the organizationalactivities pertaining to having the right people, at the right time, getting the right type of
talent development experiences. This paper is the result of over 40 combined years of
advising and working with executive education corporate clients on the assessment of
talent development needs and plans. Four challenges underpin any approach taken to
develop an organization's talent. Talent building endeavors should be business driven,

future focused, integrated, and deliver measurable results. In response to these
challenges, and based on our work with a number of corporate clients, we have created
the talent development framework (TDF). It provides a lens through which to view,
organize, and monitor talent development activities. The experience-based framework
presented here is immediately useful to those responsible for developing and enhancing
organizational talent. The organizational endeavors pertaining to the monitoring,
managing, and motivating of talent development are numerous and varied in their foci,
timing, and purpose. This article presents an organizing framework for seeing all the
pieces and how they fit together, and apply to various organizational populations for
different purposes. As such, it provides a codified, organized approach to talent
development.
Lynch and Whalley ( 2007) states that the present scenario, and employers responding
to the current economic crisis and how are they responding to the changing demographics
profiles. In todays challenging economic climate, employers need to position their
businesses for recovery and growth. Even though business leaders may have a good sense
of the impact that the economic downturn and the aging of the workforce have had (and
will have) on their businesses. Talent management is not an easy task.
William J. Rothwell (2004) ignites the imagination, expands the possibilities, and offers
practical strategies any organization can use to effectively develop, retain and utilise
talent for the benefit of an organization and enter the fluid, flexible future. Managers at
all levels will cheer the sanity Rothwell suggests."
Lance A. Berger(2003) states how organization develops excellence by identifying, developing
and promoting the best people "This is an outstanding reference work that succinctly explains a
simple and practical approach to the identification, assessment and management of talent in the
current, dynamic operating business environment. The book plainly gives advice on how to avoid
high staff turnover, poor morale, and poor performance."

CONCLUSION
Talent management is a powerful and important trend across human resource.
Organization should ensure that talent management is an integrated process for
recruitment, training, managing, supporting and compensating employees. Organizations
are made up of people and people create value. Earlier there was personnel management
where employees were not considered the asset the of organization and it has now shifted
into strategic human resource system with emergence of numerous HR practices. Now
the trend focuses on talent management from strategic human resource management.
Literature review focuses on this emerging trend and the policies to make to make it
successful throughout organization. it talks about how it should be implemented into the
organization so that it emerges as a productive return for the company. Holistic approach
and correct strategies is required for successful talent management practices in
organization

Value suggest that the hypothesis is accepted and there exist no relation between career
development and role clarity.
This hypothesis clearly suggest that according to this study there exist no impact of role
clarity and career development on each other. This hypothesis can be rejected only if
employees start understanding how the role clarity makes them move up in career ladder.
Mooreover insurance is sector where employees generally shift from one industry to
another like an insurance employee moves in banking sector.
This shows that employees does not agree with this hypothesis. insurance industry is still
developing in india going for consolidation and talent management is an emerging
concept there. Developments in this sector is not on the peak regarding talent
management. Mixed opinion of employees shows that still talent management has to
grow in this sector and can add more efficiency in the employees and their knowledge,
skills and abilities.

Findings
Role clarity is important in any organization. Roles are clearly defined in an insurance sector
to the employees. but the employees generally know about their target that they have to
achieve and they are not much linked to strategy or goal of an organization.
Recruitment is an important step as it determines the quality of employees working in the
organization. Not very wide sources are used for recruitment and not very different tools are
used for assessment. this shows a lack in the recruitment process of the insurance
organizations. referrals are generally used and overall process is poor in organization.
Accountabilty is high only in terms of work and their work is defined according to that.
Career development is missing in organizations these days except few good companies.
Insurance sector has not developed the human resource practices very efficiently in India.
The response is mixed as this consideration of career development is new in India and
insurance sector has still not developed HR practices efficiently and finally talent
management.
Training program are given to the employees in which more of the case studies are used inwhich employee analyze different cases of insurance. Training program is not very
comprehensive and exploring to improve upon the skills and abilities of employees.
Moreover evaluations done are not very effective and analyzing the performance of
individuals. there is lack in training design of the companies and final evaluation after
training as well
Work life balance is an important factor and tuff as well especially these days. work life
balance
is a challenge these day because recession has placed more demands on the industry to
perform well and finally employees have to work hard. Foreign players entering into the
market has made it more competitive. moreover the industry is growing, Therefore
employees have to work hard and no major policies are made for them to maintain this work
life balance as done in Google and Microsoft.

Conflict management is good in the organization as the problems are solved whenever
occurs. conflict are solved timely and therefore problems does not come up.
Good performers are not easily identified which means that appraisal system is not very
efficient and has flaws in it. Subjective assessments in the appraisal creates problem for
the employees. There is no clear line drawn between high performers and average
performers.

RECOMMENDATION
Insurance industry is facing number of challenges, Employee have to managed well.
Talent Management is an emerging concept these days and organisation are using it, but
insurace sector is still far behind. The quality of talent management is not very good and
policies applied are not very well equiped with the new methods of talent management.
appraisal system should be refined so that we can draw a clear line between high
performers and low performers.worklife balance has to be improved as it wil increase
productivity of employees. different seesion should be organised
Training programmes should be made more comprehensive. More techniques should be
used to evaluate and improve on their knowledge, skills and abilities. Evaluation after the
programme is must and should focus on how much is the impact on their performance
employees should be more aware of of the strategies of the organisation and should work
accordingly and set their objectives. feedbacks should be arranged properly
Career Development is again important in every organisation, as this is growing trend.
Employees should be given personel attention and more grooming of the employees
should be done.
The hypothesis is accepeted that there is no realation between role clarity and career
development. This means that there is lack of awareness as well as lack of firmness in a
particular field. People joining insurance sector should be given induction and orientation
sessions so that they can relate their role and responsibilties to their career path. It will
make them understand how their role in present situation can help them move up career
ladder.

CONCLUSION
The study aims at finding the current trends of talent management in organization. Talent
management aims at developing and integrating new workers, developing and retaining
current workers, and attracting highly skilled workers to work for a company. Insurance
industry is undergoing consolidation and has faced numerous challenges due to recession.
Recession has lead to increased competition and more work is being required for them. It
is important that talent should be managed accurately to meet current situation. Numbers
of steps are required to be taken to manage employees. this study has revealed the trend
of talent management in insurance sector. Mixed opinion has came out which says that all
these trends are at growing stage either we talk about appraisal or training and
development. Employees will work efficiently if they feel themselves a part and parcel of
organization. The questionnaires are filled from different corporate offices and their
perception are different which shows that there is no uniform system. More uniformity in
the policies of organization is required. The tool of investigation has been a questionnaire
filled by the respondents in our survey. The information so obtained was analyzed with
the help of statistical techniques to test the hypothesis formulated in this study. As
hypothesized, it has been found that there is no relation between career growth and role
clarity which is being accepted.
LIMITATIONS
There are number of constraints in the study in terms of time, money and resources
available.
Talent management is a vast topic and it was not possible to study each and every factor
impacting it in detail.
The data is taken from different corporate offices so there was wide diversity in views
and there was no clear finding towards agreement and disagreement.
