Talent management & retention of young talents in Portugal

Abstract

Atualmente, as organizações sustentáveis consideram, como uma das suas prioridades estratégicas, a capacidade de atrair e reter Jovens Talentos. Para o efeito, as empresas apostam na implementação de Programas de Talento Jovem. É imprescindível o desenvolvimento de estratégias de retenção que devem ser projetadas, de acordo com as necessidades e expectativas individuais de desenvolvimento e oportunidade. Este estudo de casos múltiplos tem como objetivo determinar quais os fatores que levam as organizações portuguesas a considerar os Jovens Talentos uma das suas prioridades estratégicas e como é que desenham e estruturam os seus Programas de Estágios. Neste sentido, seguindo uma metodologia de métodos mistos foi realizado um conjunto de entrevistas semiestruturadas (método de pesquisa qualitativa) e aplicado um questionário (método de pesquisa quantitativa) – baseado na Psychological Work Immersion Scale (Veldsman, 2013) – com o intuito de aferir os níveis de imersão psicológica dos participantes. Os resultados evidenciaram que o principal objetivo dos Programas de Estágios é proporcionar uma experiência prática através do desenvolvimento de hard skills e soft skills, que serão aplicadas em contexto profissional, culminando na melhoria da sua empregabilidade. As evidências revelaram que os nativos digitais trazem novas ideias, desafiam o status quo, o que influencia o nível de diversidade, inovação e criatividade dentro das organizações. A Proposta de Intervenção desenvolvida teve em consideração as oportunidades de melhoria identificadas na fase de desenvolvimento do Programa de Estágios da Empresa X, através da implementação de um modelo seguindo a metodologia do Design Thinking.

Nowadays, sustainable organisations consider, as one of their strategic priorities, their capability to attract and retain Young Talents. To achieve that companies are investing in the implementation of Young Talent Programmes. It is imperative the development of retention strategies, designed accordingly with the individual needs and expectations for development and opportunity. This multiple-case study aims to determine which factors lead Portuguese organisations to consider Young Talents one of their strategic priorities and how they design and structure their Internships Programmes. For that purpose, following a mixed-methods approach, a set of semi-structured interviews (qualitative research method) were conducted. Simultaneously, a questionnaire (quantitative research method) – mainly based on the Psychological Work Immersion Scale (Veldsman, 2013) – was applied to assess the levels of psychological work immersion of the participants. The results indicated that the main goal when introducing Internships Programmes is to provide Young Talents with practical experience through the development of hard and soft skills and acquaintance to real professional contexts, culminating in the improvement of their employability. Evidence shows the digital natives who bring new ideas, challenge the status quo, influencing the level of diversity, innovation and creativity within organisations. It was established an Intervention Proposal based on a solution-based framework to the development phase of Company X’s Internships Programme, relying on Design Thinking.
