However, in this study, only 70 out of 74 health workers completed the questionnaire completely at the Durikumba Health Center and 45 out of 53 officers at the Lara Health Center. The total final sample obtained was 115 health workers. The model and research approach use explanatory quantitative by choosing structural equation modeling (SEM) as the basis for statistical analysis to determine the influence and relationship between variables processed using AMOS software.

    Findings:  The study's results found that talent management can encourage knowledge management improvements and improve health workers' performance at the research sites.

    Research, Practical & Social implications:  Talent management that is carried out consistently starting from recruitment, retaining existing talents, and with a good development program will encourage improvements in employee performance and, at the same time, improve knowledge management.
