This paper is the first to explore predictors’ keys of career adaptability and subjective career success in the Saudi context. Many employees, especially women, are facing several challenges in their work, and career adaptability is a way to overcome these difficulties to reach the career success. This research investigated the mediating role of career adaptability (CA) in the relation between both psychological capital (PsCap) and perceived organizational support (POS), as predictors of CA, and subjective career success (SCS). To test our hypotheses, we collected survey data from academic staff in Saudi universities in Riyadh. The results revealed a significant relation between both (PsyCap) and POS on CA. This relation also influenced the SCS through a partial mediation of CA.

Women are under-represented at top-level positions despite increasing women empowerment and participation, and decelerating gender discrimination in India. Women must go through various obstacles in order to reach to senior- or top-level positions in their professional life. Since there are many impediments that a woman must overcome to get career success, however, this study focuses on the impediments that women face due to organizational and family impediment. The current research article aims to evaluate whether lack of mentoring, perceived organizational support (POS), and family responsibilities impact the perceived career success (PCS) of women in the Indian Information Technology (IT) sector. Data in this regard have been collected using a structured questionnaire and a total of 292 respondents have been analysed. In order to examine the impact of these impediments on the perceived career success of women, the method of structural equation modelling (SEM), has been used. Findings of the study reveal that each of the independent variables significantly impacts the perceived career success of women which works as a wake-up call for women executives that they must overcome these impediments to advance their career smoothly.

To determine the importance of career management behavior (CMB) for organizational outcomes, this study investigated the impact of CMB and organizational support for career development (OSCD) on subjective career success (SCS) and eventually on organizational commitment. Based on survey data from 355 employees of large Korean manufacturing firms, we found that both CMB and OSCD were positively associated with SCS. The results show that SCS positively affects organizational commitment and positively mediates both the relationship between CMB and organizational commitment and the relationship between OSCD and organizational commitment. Our findings imply that employee career success, which is affected by individual and organizational efforts, contributes to the outcomes of the organization in which employees are embedded.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between subjective career success (SCS) and proactive career behavior as well as family support, with a focus on women professionals in India. The study also investigates the moderating role of perceived organizational support and marital status on these relationships. Design/methodology/approach The sample consists of 363 women professionals working in the information technology-enabled services industry in India. The study is cross-sectional in design. Findings Findings from this study posit the positive moderating role of perceived organizational support on the relationship between proactive career behavior and SCS and on the relationship between family support and SCS. As a moderator, marital status has a positive impact on the relationship between proactive career behavior and SCS but has a negative impact on the relationship between family support and SCS. Practical implications The results from this study will help organizations understand the predictors of career success of women employees. Another practical implication is that this study establishes knowledge of perceived organizational support, a controllable organizational factor as a moderator in positively influencing the success of women’s careers. Leaders and managers can, therefore, use organizational factors to facilitate the success of women employees. Originality/value This study is perhaps the first to examine the relationship between antecedents of career success for women professionals in the context of India.

Future orientation is crucial for young people to achieve career-developmental milestones, yet little research has examined the role of future orientation in attaining career outcomes in adult samples. Using the future orientation framework, we tested direct effects of future orientation on career agency (proactive career behaviors and work effort) and career success (perceived employability and career adaptability), indirect effects via career agency variables, and conditional effects of negative career feedback in the future orientation-career agency-career success relationships. We surveyed 285 adults ( M = 38.38 years) and conducted structural equation and moderated mediation analyses. Future orientation was associated positively with work effort, proactive career behaviors, career adaptability, and perceptions of employability. Work effort and proactive career behaviors mediated the future orientation-career success relationship. The mediation via career behaviors (but not work effort) was dependent on the level of received negative career feedback. The results have theoretical and practical implications.
