Nowadays, the success of any organization depends on the shaping of policies tailored to the needs of human resources; otherwise, it will lose the ability to adapt to today's complex environment and the ability to use the effectiveness of human resources. For this reason, Talent Management can help to attract, nurture and develop the next generation of public leaders. This study was conducted with the aim of finding the relationship between each of the main dimensions of talent management and improves the performance of faculty members at the university. This study is an applied research. The total population included all regular universities in Iran. Data were collected by the study of literature, interviews with experts and questionnaires so that data were analyzed using correlation analysis and Analytical Network Process (ANP) by SPSS and Super Decisions software. The results show that the "talents development" dimension is in first place and the dimensions of "attracting the talent" and "talents maintenance", they are respectively ranked second and third the most relevant dimensions of talent management in improving the performance of faculty members in educational services. Thus, before considering the work processes and relying on modern technology, the role of "in-service training courses", "continuous learning" and "technical skills training" are crucial in improving the performance of faculty members.
