An organization is only as good as its people. The success of an organization is highly dependent on the management of its human resources, especially in the context of post-merger transformation that demands the integration of structure, culture, and work systems. This study aims to examine the role of talent management as a strategic mediator in the relationship between organizational change and organizational culture on employee performance. The study was conducted at PT Angkasa Pura Indonesia Juanda International Airport Branch Office using a quantitative approach with SEM-PLS analysis techniques on 202 respondents. The results of the study indicate that organizational culture has a positive effect on talent management and employee performance, and talent management significantly mediates the relationship. However, organizational change does not have a significant effect on talent management or employee performance indirectly. This finding suggests that talent management that is aligned with organizational culture has a greater impact on performance than structural change alone. This finding provides a theoretical contribution to the literature on strategic human resource management in the post-merger context in driving performance. This study also provides practical implications for organizations in designing talent-based integration strategies to achieve sustainable competitive advantage
