Protean Career
The careers of 21st century will be protean.
A protean career is driven by the person, not by the organization, and that
will be reinvented by the person from time to time, as the person and the
environment change. (Hall & Moss, 1998, p.27)
Characteristics of protean career:
- Focuses on psychological success rather than vertical success;
- Lifelong series of identity changes and continuous learning;
- Job security replaced by the goal of employability.
- The new career contract is not a pact with the organization, rather it
is an agreement with one’s self and one’s work.
