Career Management

Cutting edge HRM practice

Career Management works hand in hand with the Organisations Career Development & Planning.

Career Management is about individuals taking control of their personal career and not leaving it up to the organisation.

Once individuals have planned their career goals, they require skills, competencies and values to execute their career goals with appropriate career management practices.1

Whilst it is an integral part of the overall Organisational HRM Plan, this is much more about taking personal responsibility that drives their career plan.

Incorporating the essential elements of Career Development & Planning Career Management takes the process to the next level by:

  • Working with individuals within the organisation to develop their career plan and career management strategy.

  • Developing or reviewing the Organisations plan of succession & corresponding career development & career management strategy.

  • Assisting Management & HR to identify individuals within the organisation and integrate them into the career development & career management strategy.

  • Matching individual career development and Organisational HRM Strategy

Career management practices must support individuals in their efforts to develop the knowledge, skills, and behaviours that will enable them to be successful.2

Effective career management practice will help promote employee insight, goal and strategy development and gather appropriate feedback and assist employees in using and developing skills and knowledge that will benefit the organisation and the growth, self esteem and retention of its employees.
