Abstract
The purpose of this study was to develop a talent management model for retaining Junior Commissioned Officers (JCOs) in the Namibian Defence Force (NDF). The article provides an overview of the Namibian Defence Force which is comprised of the Namibian army, air force, navy and the military school. A literature review of the various military talent management models are discussed. These models focuses on the talent recruitment, retention and turnover. The proposed talent management model focuses on the job-pursuit intentions of JCOs, which are positively influenced by gender, military rank, military unit and location of the unit. The management implications for this framework are based on how fair Human Resources Management (HRM) practices are perceived within the NDF and this should be supported by constantly reviewing and updating HRM policies and procedures used in the recruitment, promotion and retention of JCOs in the NDF.
