Previous studies have recognized that talent management can significantly influence an organization’s performance, but theoretical and empirical research on this relationship remains limited within public service organizations. Therefore, this research aimed to explore and understand the interplay among talent, talent management, and competitiveness within the context of the Malaysian public service sector. Following a qualitative approach, interviews were conducted with 10 Malaysian public servants from the Public Sector Key Position (JUSA) level. The interview transcripts were subsequently analyzed using ATLAS.ti 9 software. The study’s findings revealed that talent management and talent constitute a core strategy for competitiveness in the Malaysian public service. Clear definitions of these concepts are vital in facilitating a more profound understanding of this strategy among public service organizations and their stakeholders. Consequently, the refinement and elaboration of definitions are essential to ensure clarity and consensus among all stakeholders, thus preventing confusion and misunderstandings in the future. Lastly, the definition process enables public service organizations to develop more precise definitions based on their specific context and scope.

Researchers developed a framework that addressed top management support, government support, stakeholder pressure, faculty support, and regulation compliance as factors influencing competitiveness, and the mediating role of the adoption of green initiatives on the above relationship. Few studies had been conducted to test the applicability of the above framework in the Malaysian context. A self-administered questionnaire was given to 452 PHEIs in Malaysia, and the data collected was analyzed using SmartPLS software. Findings revealed that top management support, government support, faculty support, and stake holder pressure played an important and significant role in influencing the competitiveness of PHEIs and the adoption of green initiative did mediate the above relationship. Regulatory compliance was not significant in influencing the green initiatives. Additionally, green initiative was found to mediate the relationship between the influencing factors and competitiveness. Theoretical and practical implications of the findings were discussed, and suggestions for future study were given.
