Keywords:
Talent management, transparency, organizationalAbstract
This study aims to investigate the relationship between talent management dimensions and organizational transparency in the Veterinary Organization of Iran. The research was applied in purpose and descriptive-survey in method. The statistical population consisted of 5,970 experts, managers, and employees of the Veterinary Organization. Using Cochran’s formula, a sample of 361 participants was selected through stratified random sampling. Data were collected via a researcher-made questionnaire based on a five-point Likert scale. Instrument validity was confirmed by GFI and reliability by Cronbach’s alpha. Data analysis was performed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) through PLS software. Independent variables included four dimensions of talent management (attraction, evaluation and discovery, development and training, and retention), while organizational transparency was the dependent variable with four dimensions (participation, fundamental information, accountability, and secrecy). The SEM results indicated a significant positive relationship between talent management and organizational transparency (T-value > 1.96). All four dimensions of talent management had a meaningful positive effect on transparency, with talent development and retention showing the strongest influence. Enhancing talent attraction, assessment, and training processes increased organizational accountability, employee participation, and reduced secrecy. Talent management serves as a strategic mechanism for improving organizational transparency, accountability, and trust. Implementing coherent talent development programs, ensuring equal opportunities for recruitment, and strengthening evaluation systems can enhance transparency, mitigate administrative corruption, and improve overall organizational performance.
