The survey research design was adopted and primary data was collected through a questionnaire. The target population of the study includes the members of staff of Access Bank and Fidelity Bank Plc, Owerri, Nigeria, with staff strength of 100 and 83 respectively, giving a total population size of one hundred and eighty (183). Also, the research hypothesis was tested using Multiple Regression with the aid of SPSS package. The result of hypothesis which stated that, there is no significant relationship between Talent Management (employee personal attributes) and Organization Performance (competitiveness) was rejected at 5% level of significance. The result therefore established that, there is a significant relationship between Talent Management and Organizational Performance. This study recommends that organizations should assist employees in the process of Talent Development programmes by adopting a work-based learning programme and technique as the best and the most effective in improving employee incompetency and performance. Again, Organization should create opportunities for manpower training so as to give every employee equal opportunity for career growth and development.
