    Meaning
    Career is progress or general course of action of a person in some profession or in an
    organization. An individual’s career signifies the position held by him throughout his work life.
    Organizations are expected to support employees in accomplishing their career and life goals
    through career planning activities. Career planning is collective responsibility of the organization
    and the concerned individual. The main aim of career planning is to help employees achieve
    progression within the organization.

    Definition

    meaning to a person’s life.

    resources requirements.

    Features of Career Planning


    i.Career planning is a process of developing human resources rather than an event.

    ii.Career planning normally follows a bottom up approach in which the process begins with the
    individuals, works upwards and ends with organizational interventions.

    iii.It is not an end in itself but a means of managing people to obtain optimum results.

    iv.It aims at matching the individual’s career goals with the opportunities available.

    v.It is not a one time affair but an ongoing process by which an employee identifies the needs and also
    the methods to fulfill those needs on a regular basis.

    vi.Career planning is a continuous process due to an ever-changing environment.

    vii. Basically career planning is an individual’s responsibility. But it is the responsibility of an organization
    to provide guidance and counseling to its employees in planning their careers and in developing and
    utilizing their knowledge and skills. Goals of employees should be integrated with the organizational
    goals.

    viii.It is normally made in a dynamic environment where the changes in the demand for and supply of
    labour, the characteristics of labour, technology, competitive conditions and market strategies are rapid
    and often radical.

    Responsibility of Career Planning


    Although career planning in the prime responsibility of the individual, the organisation also has a duty in
    developing the career of its employees. An organisation nominates the manager or supervisor to
    facilitate its employees in career planning but sometimes it may take help of external experts also for
    providing career guidance to its employees. The following figure shows the people responsible for
    career planning and development in an organization.
