Two-stage stratified sampling was employed to select the research sample that comprised 357 respondents who were selected from the employees in governmental The collected research data were analyzed qualitatively via Delphi Technique and quantitatively via Structural Equation Modeling. An extensive literature review on talent management resulted in an initial model with three components of Talent Management, including two factors of talent way of thinking and talent strategy, Talent Management Strategy, including five factors of communication, employee training, culture, performance management, rewards and appreciation, and Succession Planning, including three factors of structure, background, and content. The model obtained from the Delphi technique was subsequently examined through Confirmatory Factor Analysis. The results emerging from the present study revealed good model fitness for the proposed model with a credible degree of validity. It was shown that Talent Management Strategy can respectively explain 82% and 99% of variance in Succession
