Abstract | This chapter argues that orthodox career thinking – which focuses on vertical progression to higher-level managerial positions - is suffering from three shortcomings. First, it is insufficient to explain career dynamics in modern knowledge organizations. Second, it disregards the importance of experiential, lifelong learning on the job. Third, it does not incorporate how career is embedded in the organizational and cultural context, including a wide range of national, institutional features. |
