Over the years, companies have been faced with the challenges of acquiring, developing, and retaining viable workforce as a result due talent scarceness and market competition, thereby compelling management of companies to improve their human resource strategies via talent acquisition and development that can fit in specific job roles. Thus, companies rather be a source for exclusive talent development instead of nurturing talent inclusively. In this study, the link between talent management and the performance of employees was examined for three (3) telecommunication companies in Warri, Delta State of Nigeria. The study used a descriptive survey design and a questionnaire was the major instrument of data collection, administered to seventy-five (75) employees of the selected telecommunication companies. Data obtained in the field survey were analyzed using descriptive statistics (frequency counts, simple percentages, mean and standard deviation, skewness and kurtosis, and Pearson correlation), diagnostic statistics (variance inflation factor), and inferential statistics (simple regression). The findings of the study indicated that talent management (talent acquisition: F=34.810; Prob. = 0.0000; and development: F=64.920; Prob.=0.0000) significantly and positively impacts the performance of employees. Given the findings, it was recommended that concerted efforts should be poised towards enhancing the performance of employees; this can be realized by ensuring that talented employees are adequately acquired in order to realize the goals and objectives of the company. In addition, the management of telecommunication companies should design a good talent development framework aimed at enhancing the performance of employees by ensuring that talented employees are adequately and constantly trained in order to meet the current trends in the telecommunication industry
