Protean career orientation: relationship to turnover intentions and moderating roles of current organizational career growth and future organizational career growth

Abstract

Purpose This paper aims to review the latest management developments across the globe and pinpoint practical implications from cutting-edge research and case studies. Design/methodology/approach This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context. Findings Researchers from China found that the relationship of “protean career orientation” (PCO) to turnover intentions was negative when current organizational career growth (OCG) was high, and it was positive when OCG was low. They also established that future career growth prospects weakened the link between PCO and turnover intentions. Originality/value The briefing saves busy executives, strategists and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.
