Abstract

The aim of this research is to review the implementation of talent management in an Indonesian company context and to investigate the effectiveness of the current talent management model and practices. This is important because in Indonesia, the quality and human resource capabilities are still under some ASEAN countries that put Indonesia on Human Development Index ranking of 108, below other South East Asian countries such as Singapore, Brunei, Malaysia, Thailand, and the Philippine. Moreover, in 2015, Indonesia will enter the ASEAN Economic Community, in which foreign workers can freely come to work in Indonesia, the competency requirements are: constantly changing business environment, the demands of a new global business model, engineering and growth opportunities, as well as the shifting market needs and demands for cutting-edge management practices. The idea is that a company should be able to manage the employee as a capital and an asset to provide and increase added value and a competitive advantage when compared to its competitors. Therefore, through the concept of talent management, a company is expected to be able to acquire and retain employees who have a high talent as one of the business achieved competitive advantage. As a case study, we present a study on talent management practices in Telkom Indonesia as a case of the symbolic use of talent management in a highly technology institutional environment in a developing country (Indonesia). Telkom Indonesia gains numerous benefits of introducing talent management, whereas logic in Telkom Indonesia is merely changing from a weak state-owned enterprise into a solid, speed and smart state-owned enterprise.
