    CASE STUDIES
    Case studies for TM provide our readers with best practices for strategically approaching talent management issues. These case studies explore workforce/employee challenges organizations face, and how they approached and solved these issues. Case studies also should include metrics associated with the implementation.

    These features must explore an organization’s overall approach to talent management or a specific issue within the field. Case study submissions that include product information, vendor quotes or any marketing/advertising information associated with a vendor will NOT be considered for publication in Talent Management magazine.

    Case studies should be 1,500 words and must be submitted in a Word document. The article must include a title, byline* and bio for the author. One byline should be from a practitioner working in the featured company.

    SIDEBARS
    Sidebars are short case studies that run along with a longer feature in the magazine. These sidebars provide best practice, in practice implementations that relate to the larger feature article. Like TM’s case studies, these sidebars should explore challenges organizations face, and how they approached and solved these issues. Sidebars also should include metrics associated with the implementation.

    These features must explore an organization’s overall approach to the specific issue discussed in the main feature. Sidebar submissions that include product information, vendor quotes or any marketing/advertising information associated with a vendor will NOT be considered for publication in Talent Management magazine.

    Sidebars should be 600 words and must be submitted in a Word document. The article must include a title, byline* and bio for the author.

    GUEST EDITORIALS
    Guest editorials are opinion-based articles that run within our Viewpoint columnist section. These editorials explore and provide commentary on a theme or issue within the talent management industry.

    Guest editorial submissions that include product information, vendor quotes or any marketing/advertising information associated with a vendor will NOT be considered for publication in Talent Management magazine. In addition, guest editorials must not argue for a general talent management approach or style of solution if the author of the article works for a company that provides such a solution.

    Guest editorials should be 750 words and must be submitted in a Word document. The article must include a title, byline* and bio for the author.

    DASHBOARD FEATURES
    Dashboard features take a research-based look at an issue or theme within the talent management industry. These articles provide research and analysis that talent management leaders can use to make informed talent decisions.

    Dashboard feature submissions that include product information, vendor quotes or any marketing/advertising information associated with a vendor will NOT be considered for publication in Talent Management magazine. In addition, Dashboard features must not argue for a general talent management approach or style of solution if the author of the article works for a company that provides such a solution.

    Dashboard features should be 1,500 words and must be submitted in a Word document. The article must include a title, byline* and bio for the author. In addition, charts or graphs are also highly desirable to run with Dashboard features.

    WEB-ONLY FEATURES
    Web-only features run online only at www.TalentMgt.com, with a mention of the article in the table of contents within the print edition of the magazine. These features can be on any topic and can run any length, however, we suggest keeping these feature under 2,000 words. Due to the limited publication space within the print version of Talent Management magazine, most articles submitted to TM will run as Web-only features.

    Web-only feature submissions that include product information, vendor quotes or any marketing/advertising information associated with a vendor will NOT be considered for publication at www.TalentMgt.com. In addition, Web-only features must not argue for a general talent management approach or style of solution if the author of the article works for a company that provides such a solution.

    Web-only features should be less than 2,000 words and must be submitted in a Word document. The article must include a title, byline* and bio for the author.

    *AUTHOR AGREEMENTS
    Once an article has been selected to run in Talent Management magazine and/or www.TalentMgt.com, the author will be asked to sign an author’s agreement. Among other legalities, this contract verifies that the article selected for publication has not been published previously, and that it will not be published again in the future. In addition, the contract gives Talent Management exclusive rights and editorial control over the article. If your article has been previously published, if you plan to publish it in the future, or if you are not willing to sign the article’s rights over to Talent Management magazine, we will NOT be able to publish your article.
