ABSTRACT
This chapter draws a picture of macro talent management in Spain by providing information about the main environmental factors that shape current talent management policies and actions on a national level. Moreover, it shows the result of such environment in terms of Spanish competitiveness and talent stock using a wide array of international indexes. At present, Spain is more able to create, attract, and retain talent than in the past. All the indicators used here have dramatically improved in the long term, particularly after Spain’s entrance into the European Union. However, the national picture hinders important regional differences, analysis of which is unfortunately beyond the scope of this chapter.
