摘要 Talent management comprises an organization’s efforts to attract, select, develop and retain high-potential employees, as well as the identification of key positions in multinational companies (Stahl et al., 2012). Taiwanese talent management differs greatly compared to western practice based on the sociocultural difference between countries (Varma & Budhwar, 2013). Many dissimilarities in the HR practices between Taiwanese and western firms can be led back to the significant alteration of individualist and collectivist perspectives and characteristics. However, many talent management differences in Taiwan as opposed to Western countries can also be connected to Confucianism and to influences of Taiwanese culture – which is unique due to Taiwan’s democratic laissez-faire market economy mixed with a pinch of Chinese characteristics. For Western companies seeking FDI in Taiwan or planning to set up a subsidy it is crucial to form a deep understanding of these differences which is essential to the firm’s hiring success.
This study focuses on exploring the differences between Taiwanese and Western Talent Management approaches and draws on deeper psychological research (MBTI) to analyze cultural and psychosomatic dissimilarities with regards to behavior.

dc.description.abstract (摘要) Talent management comprises an organization’s efforts to attract, select, develop and retain high-potential employees, as well as the identification of key positions in multinational companies (Stahl et al., 2012). Taiwanese talent management differs greatly compared to western practice based on the sociocultural difference between countries (Varma & Budhwar, 2013). Many dissimilarities in the HR practices between Taiwanese and western firms can be led back to the significant alteration of individualist and collectivist perspectives and characteristics. However, many talent management differences in Taiwan as opposed to Western countries can also be connected to Confucianism and to influences of Taiwanese culture – which is unique due to Taiwan’s democratic laissez-faire market economy mixed with a pinch of Chinese characteristics. For Western companies seeking FDI in Taiwan or planning to set up a subsidy it is crucial to form a deep understanding of these differences which is essential to the firm’s hiring success.
This study focuses on exploring the differences between Taiwanese and Western Talent Management approaches and draws on deeper psychological research (MBTI) to analyze cultural and psychosomatic dissimilarities with regards to behavior.
