Importance of Career Management

Career Management is a process through which employees

1. Become aware of their own interests, values, strengths and weaknesses.
2. Obtain information about job opportunities within the company.
3. Identify career goals.
4. Establish action plans to achieve career goals.
Career management is important from both the employees perspective and the
companys perspective. From the companys perspective, the failure to motivate employees to
plan their careers can result in a shortage of employees to fill open positions, in lower employee
commitment, and in inappropriate use of money allocated for training and development
programs.
From employees perspective, lack of career management can result in frustration,
feelings of not being valued in the company and being unable to find suitable employment
should a job change (internal or with another company) be necessary due to mergers, acquisition,
restructuring, or downsizing.

Succession Planning

Many companies are losing a sizable numbers of upper-level managers because of

retirement and company restructurings that reduce the number of potential upper-level managers.
Companies are finding that their middle managers are not ready to move into upper management
positions because of skill weaknesses or lack of experience. These problems create the need for
succession planning.

Succession planning refers to the process of identifying and developing the future
leadership of the company. Succession planning is especially important given that the baby
boomers are preparing to retire or reduce their participation in organizations, creating vacancies
at all management levels. It requires senior management to systematically conduct a review of
leadership talent in the company. It ensures that top-level managerial talent is available. It
provides a set of development experiences that managers must complete to be considered for top
management positions, which avoids premature promotion of managers who are not ready for
upper-management ranks.

It also helps in attracting and retaining managerial employees by providing them with
development opportunities that they can complete if upper-level management is a career goal for
them.
