Question

Talent management and career development are investments that companies make in their employees. Companies choose to "Make" their talent in-house - by providing lots of different development opportunities - such as formal education or leadership training and development. The other choice is to "Buy" their talent on the open market - hiring well prepared individuals from outside the organization (i.e., external recruiting and selection).

What are the factors that determine if companies choose to make their talent by developing their employees internally or buying their talent on the open labor market?

How are current labor market and economic trends affecting this decision?

Provide an example from an experience of your own or someone you knew about making or buying talent. Evaluate the choice that was made.
