Differences Between Talent Management And Standard HR Approaches (personel Development)

I am an economics student living in Germany, and I will be writing my dissertation about the differences between Talent Management and standard HR approaches/personnel development. My task is to analyze what exactly is new with TM or if it is just old wine in new bottles.

Now I want to know if anyone can help me with this. I would be grateful for any helpful information. If you know any good e-sources, books, or have experiences yourself, PLEASE help me.

Thank you :)

Bob Gatley and B K Bhatia have given you some sound suggestions. Hence, let me ask you some questions before providing some links. Please let us know what level of course you are doing and in what mode. Have you searched the web for the information?

As a retired academic, my advice to students is to search the web and tell us what they think about the problem they pose; then seek help to dispel any misconceptions they may have and/or to improve the draft script. I am not an HR person but found the following links to The McKinsey Quarterly: The Online Journal of McKinsey & Co on Talent Management at https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=wh...ent+management http://www.executivesondemand.net/ma...for_talent.pdf
