Interpretation and analysis

Study Q.3: What are the individuals’ expectations in terms of support from the
organization towards career development process?

The response listed in table# 14-B has a validity of 2.2%. According to the table as a
response to integration of career counseling 2.8% of the total said “no” and 94.4 %
response was accorded the idea of integrating career counseling in HR policies of the
organization. This response elaborates the intentions of the senior management as well as
the management style of a conventional organization. This clearly reflects that the
organization has not taken any initiative to integrate such an aspect of individuals’ career
development though the senior management strongly supports the idea. This could be
explained with the fact that organizational decisions are strictly centralized and authority
for such decisions is exercised by few at the top and therefore, despite the strong favor it
is not practiced.
