QUANTITATIVE ANALYZE OF BOTH RELATION BETWEEN TALENT MANAGEMENT AND INNOVATION PERFORMANCE AND MOTIVATION’S MEDIATION ON THAT RELATION

This manuscript aims to test the talent management’s direct impact on the organizational innovation performance, and the mediator role of motivation on the relation between talent management and innovation performance. The talent management that has gained a new meaning particularly with the digital transformation, can be considered as a good candidate of a contributor to organizational competitive advantage. Analyzing the potential impact of talent management on innovation performance and also the potential mediator factors on that relationship, may contribute to the literature as well as business world. In accordance with that theoretical structure, a survey on 437 respondents is carried out. The data gathered from the survey is analyzed with SPSS statistical software program. Results confirm that the talent management positively influences innovation performance. In addition, both intrinsic and extrinsic motivation are positively influenced by talent management. On the other hand, it’s also lightened with Hayes’s process way that the motivation mediates partially the impact of talent management on the innovation performance. Therefore, it’s argued here, in present manuscript, that the talent management positively influences the innovation performance and the motivation (both intrinsic and extrinsic motivations) partially mediates that relationship.
