Abstract

Purpose Literature on competency modeling (CM) integration in Talent Management (TM) is gaining attention, but we still lack knowledge about this issue in SMEs and in European contexts, such as France. This study aims to explore CM integration within TM specifically in French SMEs, a largely unexplored domain. Building upon Shet and Bajpai's (2023) framework, our objective is to propose a context-specific CM integration model. Design/methodology/approach Employing a qualitative approach, we conducted 25 in-depth interviews with representatives from 20 French SMEs. The study adapts Shet and Bajpai's framework to unravel key drivers and factors influencing CM integration in the unique context of French SMEs. Findings Functional, governance, and capability integration emerge as crucial drivers in this context. Additionally, our study highlights the impact of French legislation, SME characteristics, and strategic alignment between top and line management. Surprisingly, information systems play a less significant role in CM integration in French SMEs. Originality This research contributes to the existing knowledge gap by presenting a refined model tailored to French SMEs, providing actionable insights for CM integration in Talent Management. The study's originality lies in addressing a critical gap in literature and offering practical recommendations for organizational leaders.
