Developing talents is one of the vital ways of assuring an organization to have leaders it will require for a strong future and easy transition of power. Talent Development Programme (TDP) is a plan that is targeting to improve talents by providing intensive, extra-curricular opportunities for training leadership and problem-solving skills in addressing real world concerns, such as diversity, sustainability, integration or financial regulation (Bailey & Morley, 2006, p. 214). TDP activities include seminars by academic or financiers and debates with industrialists or politicians. Students can attend training from a field expert and then organize a follow-up activity. Contemporary companies are turning to mentoring and coaching programs for talent development. These programs tap the value of the internal employee resources in developing other, which saves cost, time, and boosts overall employee satisfaction. Coaching helps an employee to get the best performance from themselves – the potential that was already there. Mentoring works alongside coaching and it helps to prepare someone moving to a new role, working in a different or new environment, taking on new responsibilities, or building confidence to develop career further.
