This empirical study aimed to explore the practices involved in the exclusive, inclusive, and hybrid talent management strategies, based on the implementation of exclusive talent management practices. It also examines the relationships between these strategies
and different contextual variables (size, origin of capital, and cultural orientation). A questionnaire based on exclusive talent management practices was used to examine 104 companies located in Argentina. The study sample is a convenience one comprising the companies featured in the Mercado and MercoTalento rankings. The results revealed the presence of three clusters associated with different talent management strategies, being the hybrid the dominant one. Segmentation practices differentiated exclusive and hybrid companies. At inclusive companies, the use of some exclusive practices was observed. The adopted talent strategies exhibited positive relationships with the contextual variables examined.
