Abstract: | Personal career expectations have risen, and more individuals are showing initiative and demanding career opportunities. Turnover is increasing, and white-collar unions have been suggested. The author suggests that managers provide adequate support and guidance for individual career planning through human resource planning and development. Career planning begins with choices concerning occupation and organization, the job assignment, performance and development, and, ultimately, retirement. Management supports these choices through the way it attracts, recruits, and orients new talent; matches individual interests and talents with opportunities; helps individuals perform effectively and develop their capabilities; and helps individuals prepare for a satisfying, secure retirement. The author offers several guidelines for influencing career behavior, the core of the human resource management process. |
