Career Development in Organizations

Professor of Organizational Behavior Douglas T Hall

The career - a series of upward moves with steadily increasing income, power, status, and security - has become a relic of the past. Yet, as the authors of The Career Is Dead - Long Live the Career clearly demonstrate, if we redefine careers as a series of lifelong work experiences and personal learnings, the career will never die. In fifteen original chapters, experts in organizational behavior, career development, and organizational change show how the end of the old career contract has now made career security the responsibility of the individual. Through both research and their own extensive experience, the authors demonstrate that an individual's most important career resource is other people, and that the most significant source of learning and growth is found in relationships.

Peer Coaching at Work

Careers In and Out of Organizations provides an overview of the changing context of careers and describes the role of interpersonal relationships as influences on development of a person's identity and learning. The author examines the nature of the new career contract and the different approaches that have been taken to studying career decision making. He explores how career choices are made, the developmental stages people pass through during the course of their working lives in organizations, and the factors related to career effectiveness including integrating career and personal life. The latter third of the book turns from research to the practical issues involved in applying theory including a look at how an understanding of career dynamics can be employed to make careers work better for individuals and for the work communities where they are employed.
