Description
Summary:The purpose of this paper is to investigate the individual orientation of career development initiatives by exploring the mediator between career aspiration and perceived organizational support. There were 405 responses from public and private sector employees posted in Delhi and National Capital Region of India that were utilized for data analysis by applying structural equation modelling through Smart-PLS. The major findings of this work establish a positive association of career aspiration with proactive career behavior, which, in turn, affects perceived organizational support. The higher-aspiring employees may benefit from taking proactive career initiatives that will increase their chances of attaining better organizational support.
