The article is aimed not only, on the basis of available theoretical information, at describing the nature, significance, benefits and particular processes of talents management (their acquisition, development and retention) but also at bringing information on the scope and the level of use of talent management by organizations in one of the Czech Republic regions, in the Moravian-Silesian Region. On the basis of data acquired by a questionnaire survey it has been found out that organizations in the above-mentioned region are implementing the system of talent management on a small scale: this approach is used by 3.8 % of organizations only that is 9 from 237 (100 %) of the approached respondents. The main reasons why this approach is not used is either that organizations have no knowledge of it or there is lack of financial and personnel resources. Another aim of the article is to bring recommendations suggested by the authors for a wider application of talent management in the Czech practice.
