Abstract
This study was intended to establish the relationship between talent management, employee engagement and performance of humanitarian NGOs in West Nile. A cross-sectional, quantitative design was used. The researcher issued questionnaires for 70 NGOs (350 questionnaires) and received 281 questionnaires from 55 NGOs giving a response rate of 78.6%. The reliability test of the tools showed that all variables under study were reliable with Cronbach’s alpha statistic above the 0.70-threshold value suggested by Nunn ally, (1978). The correlation analysis of the variables showed a positive significant relationship between talent management, employee engagement and humanitarian NGO performance. This implies that a change in talent management, employee engagement directly affect performance of humanitarian NGOs. The regression analysis of the constructs showed that talent management had a positive significant effect on performance of NGOs. While employee engagement had non-significant effect on NGOs performance. It was therefore concluded that, an improved talent management and employee engagement, results in rational humanitarian NGO performance. The researcher recommends that Management should put more emphasis on talent management since it has more predictive power on performance than employee engagement. This could be done by setting talent retention strategies, such as competitive salary packages and rewards and investing in talent development practices in order to enhance performance of NGOs. Government could set up talent management policies to be followed by all humanitarian NGOs so that the talented employees stay longer in the organisations to promote performance.
