Mitigating Job Burnout through Talent Management and Emotional Intelligence: Evidence from Jordanian Hospitals

This study analyzed the impact of talent management on job burnout and the moderating role of emotional intelligence among 221 medical staff at private hospitals in Jordan.Talent management was measured across three dimensions: developing talents, evaluating talents, and maintaining talents.Job burnout was assessed on emotional exhaustion and reduced personal accomplishment.Self-reported surveys were utilized to collect data.The results showed talent management significantly reduces burnout.Emotional intelligence positively moderated the relationship between evaluating talent and burnout, with higher emotional intelligence associated with lower burnout.The findings provide new empirical evidence within the understudied context of Jordanian healthcare workers.Talent management and emotional intelligence development are implied as strategies to reduce the high rates of burnout among medical staff.
