INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY OF CAREERS
TERMINAL OBJECTIVE
Given a 1- hour learning experience, participants will discuss the study of careers within career
management; the level of acceptable performance will be determined by the facilitator.
MODULE OUTLINE




What is Career Management?
Why study Career Management?
What is a Career?
Understanding Career Management from an individual and organizational
perspective.
 What are some causes of changes within organization structure?
 Effect of a changing psychological contract.
Define Career Management and ways in which organizations have cut cost over the years.
Career management refers to the approach used to develop strategies to assist employees in
reaching their career goals. Career management refers to the steps taken to implement and
monitor career growth activities and to develop employees. Organizations have cut costs by
reducing waste, outsourcing, and downsizing employees. Employees rely on new technologies to
reduce costs and waste. Organizations have become more customer driven and rely on networks
to get the product or service to the customer.
List three characteristics of structure changes within organizations and describe each.

Customer –driven “horizontal”: cross-functional autonomous work teams are used to
manage instead of using many levels of management.

Network: a partnership of businesses working together. Additional resources provided by
the partnership allows for unlimited success.
Greenhaus, Callanan and Godshalk (2010) 3
Page 3

Modern: changes to the internal structure which include decentralization, use of
contingent workers, and outsourcing.
Identify ways in which the Psychological Contract has changed within organizations
and list two changes in workforce diversity and its affects on the current workforce.
The psychological contract has changed within the organization. Relationships between
the organization and the employee have become more transactional. Employees are expected to
be more flexible and receptive to changing work assignments and are required to develop new
skills. One way workforce diversity has changed is in the number of women and minorities in the
workforce. The current workforce has embraced the changing demographic of employees. The
second way the workforce has become more diverse because the retirement of the Baby Boomer
generation has created a need for employees. As a result organization are forced to hire from a
diverse population.
Employers have ways to reduce diversity in the workplace. If so, give details on how
the organization manages diversity. Explain how your organization manages diversity.
Employers reduce diversity by using discriminatory hiring practices. Employers must manage
diversity by hiring the person based on their experience and their skill not based on their race,
ethnicity, gender, or disability. Organizations who fail to engage in a fair hiring process are
breaking the law and could face legal repercussions.
Greenhaus, Callanan and Godshalk (2010) 4
Page 4
Explain two primary ways two view a career.

One primary way to view a career as a structural property of an occupation or
organization.

The second primary way is to view a career as the property of the individual.
Career Management can be briefly described as , . .
Career management is the development of career goals. Once a person develops their
career goals, they manage these goals by developing a career plan and taking the steps to
implement the plan. Lastly, career management is managing the career goals. The strategies will
outline the steps taken to reach career goals. This includes setting realistic career goals and
taking steps to obtain these goals.
Identify the importance of career management from an individual and
organizational viewpoint. Briefly describe each.

From an individual perspective, career management is important to obtaining career
goals. Without education and the necessary skills and experience, it would be far more
difficult to reach career goals.

For an organizational perspective, career management is properly managing people and
their careers to ensure their success which in turn will result in organizational success.
Greenhaus, Callanan and Godshalk (2010) 5

What steps have you taken to manage your career and how has it affected
your current choices?
The steps I have taken include obtaining my associates degree and then working towards
my bachelor’s degree in order to obtain the education I need. I have also joined clubs and
organizations to make the necessary connections to further my career. I have also obtained a
position in human resources to help advance my career goals.

CAREER CONTEXTS AND STAGES
TERMINAL OBJECTIVE
Given a 1- hour learning experience, participants will discuss career contexts and stages within
careers; the level of acceptable performance will be determined by the facilitator.
MODULE OUTLINE
 Explore Career Perspectives.




Understand Social Influences on Careers.
Define Career Success.
Impact of Developmental Perspectives on Careers.
Explore theories of Life Development
Greenhaus, Callanan and Godshalk (2010) 6
Page 6
Identify and describe contemporary perspectives on careers and compare similarities
and differences. Discuss the impact of social influences on careers.
Contemporary perspectives on career include the boundary-less career. The organization
does not establish boundaries but allows for internal organizational movement for employees.
Another perspective on careers is the protean career. The Protean career involves the individual
management of career goals. Career goals are self-directed. They take control over their own
careers. Boundaries are set on career goals.
Developmental or Stage-Based Perspective on Careers
Complete the following tables on each theorist and develop the main ideas of
each theory below.

Erickson’s Eight Stages of Development
Stage of Development
1. Basic trust vs. mistrust
2. Autonomy vs. Shame & doubt
3. Initiative vs. guilt
4. Industry vs. inferiority
5. Identity vs. role confusion
6. Intimacy vs. isolation
7. Generatively vs. stagnation
8. Ego integrity vs. despair

28- Entry life structure for early adulthood
Early Adult Transition
Child and Adolescence
Identify the stages of career development and briefly explain each stage.
Stage one is infancy. This is where the child learns to trust. The next stage occurs between the
ages of one and three and involves autonomy versus shame followed by guilt or initiative
between the ages of 4 and 5. Development between the ages of 6 to 11 results in industry vs.
inferiority while puberty and adolescence results in identity or role confusion. Between the age
of 6 and 11, the child is becoming more social and relationships outside the family become more
important. This is also true for the stage of puberty and adolescence. During this stage the child
will either gain confidence in themselves or begin to experience feelings of inferiority. In early
adulthood, the person is entering the career stages of their lives. Childhood development will
impact their success or failure. During this stage the person will also enter into romantic
relationships and marriage. Middle adulthood can result in stagnation especially if career goals
are not being achieved. The person seeks to be stable in their lives and career. In late adulthood,
the person will reflect on their life and experience either ego integrity or despair.
Greenhaus, Callanan and Godshalk (2010) 8
Page 8
Keeping in mind, “Levinson’s Eras of Development”; which stage of transition are you in
and how does it affect your current development? What changes can you make
to be prepared for the next stage or what can you do to be successful in your
current stage?
My current stage of transition is the early adulthood stage. I am currently
taking the steps to achieve the career goals I have set. According to Levinson’s
Eras of Development, early adulthood is a transition period. I am currently
building on relationships and taking the steps to obtain the skills and experience I
need to reach my career goals. In order to prepare for the next stage, I will need to
establish a strong family life and meet career goals.

Workplace Environment
What impact does Career Exploration have on Career Management and identify four
indicators of effective Career Management?
Career exploration helps the individual to gain awareness of their self and their career
environment. Career exploration will assist the person in having a deeper understanding of their
current situation and aid in making more strategic decisions concerning career goals. The four
indicators of effective career management are awareness, creation of a career goal, a strategy to
reach your career goal, and the evaluation of self to develop a career appraisal.
Using the indicators of effective Career Management, how do you measure
up? Also mention changes that you can make that will make you more
productive in your career exploration.
The first indicator of effective career management is awareness. I am aware of my career
goals and the steps it will take to reach these goals. My career goal has been decided and I have
been working towards meeting this goal. I have developed a solid strategy for gaining my career
goals which includes earning the necessary education and obtaining the necessary experience. I
do need to conduct a self-evaluation in order to better understand how effective I have been at
working towards reaching my goals and to determine if my goals are realistic.

Collection of data
Individual assessment instruments
Assessment of values
Assessment of interests
Greenhaus, Callanan and Godshalk (2010) 12
Page 12


Assessment of personality
Assessment of abilities and talents
Self-exploration programs can be integrated through the use of curricular-based programs
which help the student to assess their skills and to establish career goals. Computer based career
support systems aid the person in their decision making concerning career goals and areas of
interest.
Define theme identification and the following steps that may be helpful in identifying
themes.
Theme identification means identifying themes present in research. A theme can be
identified through an inductive process. Hypothesis can be drawn concerning the presence of
themes in the research. Different data gathering devices can be used to support or refute the
presence of a particular theme.
.
Six guidelines to overcoming obstacles to Career Exploration:
1.
Incomplete Exploration: The three reasons for incomplete exploration include
complacency, hopelessness, and fear.
2.
Coerced Exploration: is explained by people’s tendency to learn and change when the
motivation comes from within not from a manger or relative.
3.
Random Exploration: which means that career exploration does not require constant
participation in formal programs.
4.
Ineffective forms of career exploration: most critical task within this guideline is to
estimate the likelihood that a particular activity will meet your informational needs. Ease does
not necessarily mean quality.
5.
Exclusion of Nonwork considerations: This guideline reminds the individual to consider
the impact of work experiences on other significant part of your life.
Greenhaus, Callanan and Godshalk (2010) 13
Page 13
6.
Diffuse Exploration: does not require continuous participation in formal career programs.
