Philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau once asked: what wisdom can you find that is greater than kindness? This article explores whether career practitioners might need to ask themselves the same rhetorical question in relation to career practice. Career development consultations that explicitly aim to focus on offering kindness might be a welcome change for practitioners well versed in extolling the oft-cited career competencies of developing resilience and remaining open to opportunities. This study indicates a need for increased focus on the provision of kindness in career development and suggests practical interventions that career practitioners can utilise.

Since the 1980s, rapid changes in the world of work have challenged the capacity of career theory to provide adequate explanations of career and career development and the ability of traditional career practice to respond to the varied career development needs of clients in this new work environment It was against this complex and rapidly changing context that the Systems Theory Framework of career development (STF) was created. This article will review the history and development of the STF since its first publication as a contextual model in the inaugural edition of the Australian Journal of Career Development in November 1992.

We live in rapidly changing times, with workers continuously facing challenges as organisations go through repeat and rapid transformations. Furthermore, literature on Future of Work, including the rise of artificial intelligence in the workplace, predicts greater levels of occupational hybridisation and contingent working, which will further increase job uncertainty. This paper argues that by drawing on theory and practice from organisational literature, career practitioners can appreciate better the impact of organisational change on work, and the implications of this for people's careers. Thus, in understanding both organisational and individual transformation, they can offer a 'dual-empathy' approach to career practice.

Despite widespread acknowledgement of the importance of career development programs to assist students in their complex transition from school to work, very few specific career education interventions have been objectively evaluated. The aim of this paper is to highlight what the authors consider to be a conspicuous shortfall in the career development literature to date, that is, reports of methodologically sound career intervention studies carried out in actual high school settings. International trends in the world of work are briefly discussed in association with the repercussions these changes are producing for today's youth. The major portion of this article is devoted to a comprehensive review of career intervention studies with particular attention paid to the methodological and theoretical issues that resonate from this review process. Recommendations for future research are proposed.
