Abstract
Two crucial concepts that influence an institution’s culture and operational efficacy are talent management and organizational ethics. This study examines the relationship between talent management practices and perceived organizational ethics in Ghana’s public universities. By integrating strategic recruitment, comprehensive development programs, retention policies, and rigorous performance management, the study explores how these elements influence the ethical climate within academic institutions. Using a mixed-method approach, the research employs both quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews involving faculty, administrative staff, and management across multiple universities. Findings reveal a positive correlation between effective talent management and the perception of organizational ethics, highlighting that institutions with robust talent framework tend to exhibit higher levels of ethical standards. Ethical cultures characterized by transparency, fairness, and accountability were observed in institutions with proactive talent management systems. The study underscores the critical role of embedding ethical standards into all talent-related processes to enhance institutional integrity. Recommendations include integrating ethics into recruitment, development, and retention policies while fostering leadership practices that uphold ethical principles.
