“ASSIGNMENT”

Career management, unlike the other issues, is a continuous process that occurs
throughout one's career and not just at discrete times. It may be helpful to think of career
management as a philosophy and set of habits that will enable you to achieve career
goals and develop career resiliency. Successful career management is accomplished
through regular habits of building relationships, engaging in career development
conversations, updating your career development plan, and setting new goals as life and
career needs change. Being proficient at career management also means possessing basic
skills related to job searching and managing changes in a resilient manner.

Years of change, restructuring, outsourcing and down-sizing have caused people to take a
more active role in managing their careers. Employees at all levels face career decisions
on a daily basis: is my job safe? Should I stay or should I leave? Should I change careers?
Should I pursue new projects? Should I go back to university? Should I start up on my
own? And in a rapidly-changing work environment, the answers are not always obvious.
It is in the context of this economic reality that career management assumes more
significance not less. Career management is about getting people to where they want to
be and where the organization needs them to be. If employers want their people to be
committed to the organization, engaged with their work and driven to perform they need
to provide them with the tools and resources they need to manage their careers within the
organization. It’s not just a “nice” thing to do - it’s a business imperative.

Q1. Explain career management practices in your organization. Describe the stages in the
career life cycle, and examine the needs an employee has at each stage of the cycle.
10 marks

Q2. Explain career management problems in UAE. Debate the issues Human Resources
departments face with career management and explain the benefits of career management to
