Mediating Role of Career Development in the Relationship between Career Program and Personal Outcomes
Abstract: This study was
conducted primarily to measure the relationship between career program, career
development and personal outcomes using self-administered questionnaires
gathered from employees who have worked at a Sabah local government in Borneo.
The outcomes of testing research hypothesis using a stepwise regression
analysis showed two important findings: firstly, relationship between career
program (i.e., planning and management) and career development positively and
significantly correlated with job satisfaction. Secondly, relationship between
career program (i.e., planning and management) and career development
positively and significantly correlated with career commitment. Statistically,
the result demonstrates that career development does act as an important
mediating variable in the relationship between career program and personal
outcomes in the career program model of the studied organization. The paper
provides discussion, implications and conclusion.
