Background of the Study

Talent management is a critical aspect of organizational success, particularly in industries like manufacturing, where skilled and motivated employees drive operational efficiency and innovation. For manufacturing firms in Nasarawa State, effective talent management strategies are essential for business growth and competitiveness. As the manufacturing sector in Nigeria faces challenges such as poor infrastructure, regulatory issues, and competition from global markets, businesses must focus on developing and retaining a talented workforce to maintain productivity and profitability (Ojo & Akinlolu, 2024).

Talent management strategies encompass a range of practices, including recruitment, training and development, performance management, succession planning, and employee retention (Nguyen & Umar, 2023). These strategies are particularly important in the manufacturing sector, where skilled workers are often in high demand, and the success of a business depends on the availability of capable individuals who can drive production and innovation. However, many manufacturing firms in Nasarawa State struggle to implement effective talent management practices due to resource constraints and a lack of structured frameworks for attracting and retaining skilled employees.

Previous research suggests that organizations with robust talent management systems tend to outperform their competitors in terms of growth, profitability, and employee satisfaction (Ojo & Akinlolu, 2024). However, there is limited research on how manufacturing firms in Nasarawa State implement these strategies and the impact they have on business growth. This study seeks to explore talent management practices in this sector and assess their contribution to business performance.

Statement of the Problem

Manufacturing firms in Nasarawa State are struggling to manage and retain talent, which is essential for driving growth and ensuring long-term success. Despite the importance of talent management, many firms face challenges such as high turnover rates, difficulty attracting skilled workers, and lack of formalized training and development programs. As a result, these firms experience reduced productivity, poor innovation, and limited growth opportunities. This study aims to critically analyze talent management strategies in manufacturing firms in Nasarawa State and their impact on business growth.
