A Major shift
From careers that offer secured employment To careers that provide ‘opportunities for
development’
From hierarchy based system To boundaryless career
From either organizational or individual To balancing individual and organizational needs
The broader environment – professional, organizational and cultural - is the reference for career aspirations.

Rousseau; Herriot & Pemberton; +: New psychological contracts; new deals
The old deal was: employee offer: loyalty,
conformity, commitment
employer offer security of employment, career prospects, training and development and care in trouble.
The new deal is: employee offer long
hours, added responsibility, broader skills, and tolerance of change and ambiguity
employer offer high pay, reward for performance, and above all, having a job.

Internal career
The self-perception of a person about his or her own career: its development, advancement, and fulfilment
This self-perception involves setting career goals and evaluating own achievement in reaching them
It is subjective, and so is the definition of career success.
![Page 6: Future of career and careers of the future Yehuda Baruch Norwich Business School University of East Anglia UK](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649e0e5503460f94af9030/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
External career
The way other people and organizations perceive person’s career – development, advancement, and fulfilment of goals
It is objective, but still depends on the specific observer view-point
Success in external career would be measured mainly in terms of hierarchy level and pace of progress, social status, professional qualifications, and monetary benefits.

The Admirals Study
An unusual opportunity to study the career transitions of a very rare sample of senior leaders and executives who moved from a stable, highly structured and bureaucratic system, to the dynamic labour market
![Page 33: Future of career and careers of the future Yehuda Baruch Norwich Business School University of East Anglia UK](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649e0e5503460f94af9030/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Method
Sample of half USA former Navy Admirals Response rate – 47%: 334 out of 712
(high for an executive level population - see Baruch, 1999; Baruch & Holtom, 2008)
![Page 34: Future of career and careers of the future Yehuda Baruch Norwich Business School University of East Anglia UK](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649e0e5503460f94af9030/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Constructs measurement
All of the measures demonstrated good reliability with Cronbach’s Alphas between .70 and .90
To test for common method bias we computed the Harman’s one-factor test (Podsakoff & Organ, 1986). No single factor accounted for the majority of the covariance, suggesting that the common method variance is not solely responsible for our findings.

Contribution to the literature
Examining the nature of transition process for a special group of top leaders, from a stable into a dynamic system
The findings demonstrate the crucial role that the organization career
management system can play in preparing senior leaders for career transition
the distinct nature of two constructs of career success for the second career (i.e., internal and external). Each form of career success stems from a different set of antecedents.
The concept of protean career was evaluated and shown relevant to the present turbulent business environment.
