Careers

For employees, career development defines their work identity and income potential and significantly impacts their lifestyles.

For a majority of employers, career development impacts employee engagement and retention, and the strength of their employee value proposition. It also drives key talent processes such as learning and development, performance management, talent management, and career pathing.

Importance usually is accompanied by complexity, and that is the case with career development. While it often is considered a single subject, career development is actually a collection of conditions, strategies, and processes that must work in harmony to be effective.
