Abstract In today's age of rapid technological advancement, talent management (TM) has undergone a significant transformation. What was once seen as a purely administrative function of the human resources department has now evolved into a strategic, technology-driven priority for organizations. This paper explores how digital tools--particularly artificial intelligence (AI), big data analytics, cloud computing, and mobile platforms--are reshaping the ways organizations attract, develop, retain, and engage talent. Through a comprehensive literature review and comparative analysis, the study examines how different regions--North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa--are adapting their TM practices in response to local socio-economic and technological conditions. The paper highlights how digital innovation has streamlined the entire TM lifecycle. From AI-driven recruitment and gamified learning experiences to real-time employee engagement tools and predictive analytics for retention and succession planning, digital technologies are bringing unprecedented efficiencies. At the same time, the study critically evaluates challenges such as digital inequality, ethical concerns around AI, data privacy issues, and widening skills gaps. Emerging trends like hybrid work models, talent mobility, and blockchain-based credentialing are also explored as influential forces shaping the future of work. This review emphasizes the importance of a human-centered, inclusive, and ethically responsible approach to digital talent management. It offers valuable insights for HR leaders, policymakers, and academics striving to build resilient, sustainable, and equitable talent ecosystems in an increasingly complex global economy.
