The culture of an organization can be positive and supportive, or threatening and
destructive. A career development culture helps address productivity, competitiveness,
affirmative action, and succession planning. It helps people redefine their talents
to realize the full potential of their jobs. Supervisors should play a key role in
creating a career development culture, but many feel their careers are going nowhere
and see career development efforts to be an added burden. Supervisors seldom do performance
appraisals properly because they are afraid of their workers and the workers are
virtually paranoid about the slightest negative note on their files. A better way
is to organize a system of mentorship. Evaluation of initiatives can be calculated
on the basis of savings that can be attributed to the program and its actual costs.
A managed career development culture can pay great rewards to an organization and
the people working in it.
