Is career management related to employee development and performance?

Article Abstract:

The impact of career management on employee development and performance is studied. Results show that employee developmental behavior is determined by the extent to which they solicit career-related information from peers, managers and other sources. On the other hand, managers' ratings had no influence on development behavior. Organizations can also encourage development behavior by training managers in the skills necessary to support employee development.

Burden or blessing? Expected costs and benefits of being a mentor

Article Abstract:

The costs and benefits of mentoring experience were investigated using a survey of 275 executives. Results showed that prior experience as a mentor affected the perception of anticipated costs and benefits of mentoring. The results also showed that perceptions of mentoring were related to prior experience as a protege. The implications of these results on organizational encouragement of formal and informal mentoring relationships are examined.
