Abstract
A gap is evident between the current and comprehensive model for utilizing the talents and capabilities of the Ministry of Sports and Youth as well as planning achieve them. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to identify the causal loops of the talent management in the Ministry of Sports and Youth based on the system dynamics. For this purpose, with the use of exploratory method, required qualitative data were collected for the analysis through interviews based on the system approach and interactions among talent management's components and subsystems. The statistical population of the study consisted of the talented and specialized managers and professors in the field of talent management which 12 individuals were purposefully selected as the sample group. Data analysis was performed using Vensim software. The results of this study showed that the talent management system encompasses the main subsystems for identifying, attracting, developing and retaining the talents. In fact, these four subsystems are functioning under the policies of the talent management system; In other words, the talent management policies act as input for these subsystems. Also, the causal loops obtained from multiple talent management subsystems, influential variables and their interactions were drawn and presented as a basis for providing a solution.
