Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the role of talent management in Iranian Helicopter Support and Renewal Company (PANHA) intellectual capital development. This study is based on a main hypothesis and three sub-hypothesis which measure the effects of talent management on three intellectual capital factors, including human capital, relational structural capital and organizational structural capital. A sample consisted of 158 individuals (118 talented staff, and 40 deputies and experts of the organization) is selected and analyzed by inferential statistics using descriptive-surveyed research approach. The data is collected using questionnaires. For data analysis, first, we assess the base validity of all indicators using confirmatory factor analysis, and then the research hypotheses are examined by fitted model and structural equations model. The research findings indicate that talent management has positive and meaningful effect on intellectual capital of PANHA. Among the three components of intellectual capital, talent management has also positive and meaningful effect on the two components of human capital and relational structural capital, but has no impact on organizational structural capital.
