CHANGİNG CAREER UNDERSTANDİNG İN WORKİNG LİFE: KALEİDOSCOPE CAREER MODEL

Öz

Career is a concept that encompasses the work that individuals do throughout their working life, and the developments and advancements in business life. One of the most important features of the traditional career understanding, in which the career of the individual is limited to the conditions of the organization, is that the individual starts a job in an organization, works in the same organization throughout his entire career and retires. In the traditional structure, employees act dependent on the organization and mostly expect career orientation from the organization. Today, increasing competition at both local and global levels, and dynamic changes in socio-economic structure and technology have paved the way for the career approach to gain a quality outside of traditional patterns. With the change in the traditional career understanding, the responsibility of directing the career has passed on to the individuals. Along with this change in career understanding, new career approaches show that today's career understanding has also changed direction. One of these new career approaches is the Kaleidoscope Career Model, which has started to take an important place in foreign literature and is defined as a metaphor. According to this model, career is organized according to the individual's own living conditions, and is shaped by the individual's choices about his life and his own values. In the kaleidoscope career model, three parameters are defined, namely authenticity, balance and challenge, which are active throughout the lives of individuals. These parameters change according to the life conditions of the individual and shape the career decision of the individual. Career profiles of female and male employees are shaped according to these three parameters. In line with these explanations, the aim of this study is to theoretically examine the kaleidoscope career model, which is a new career approach, based on the importance of career in working life and to contribute to the literature on this subject.

Çalışma Yaşamında Değişen Kariyer Anlayışı: Kaleydoskop Kariyer Modeli

Öz

Kariyer, bireylerin çalışma yaşamları boyunca yaptıkları işleri, iş yaşamındaki gelişme ve ilerlemeleri kapsayan bir kavramdır. Bireyin kariyerinin örgütün koşullarıyla sınırlı olduğu geleneksel kariyer anlayışının en önemli özelliklerinden biri bireyin bir örgütte işe başlayıp, tüm kariyeri boyunca aynı örgütte çalışması ve emekli olmasıdır. Geleneksel kariyer yapısı içinde çalışanlar, örgüte bağımlı olarak hareket etmekte ve kariyer yönlendirmelerini çoğunlukla örgütten beklemektedirler. Günümüzde hem yerel hem de küresel düzeyde artan rekabet, sosyo-ekonomik yapıda ve teknolojide yaşanan dinamik değişimler kariyer anlayışının da geleneksel kalıpların dışında bir nitelik kazanmasına zemin hazırlamıştır. Geleneksel kariyer anlayışında yaşanan değişimle birlikte kariyeri yönlendirme sorumluluğu bireyler üzerine geçmiştir. Kariyer anlayışında yaşanan bu değişimle beraber yeni kariyer yaklaşımları günümüzde kariyer anlayışının da yön değiştirdiğini göstermektedir. Bu yeni kariyer yaklaşımlarından biri yabancı yazında da önemli derecede yer almaya başlayan ve bir metafor olarak tanımlanan Kaleydoskop Kariyer Modelidir. Bu modele göre kariyer, bireyin kendi yaşam koşullarına göre düzenlenmekte, bireyin yaşamına dair seçimleriyle ve kendi değerleriyle şekillenmektedir. Kaleydoskop kariyer modelinde bireylerin yaşamları boyunca aktif olan özgünlük, denge ve meydan okuma olmak üzere üç parametre tanımlanmaktadır. Bu parametreler bireyin yaşam şartlarına göre değişmekte ve bireyin kariyer kararını şekillendirmektedir. Kadın ve erkek çalışanların kariyer profilleri, belirlenmiş bu üç parametreye göre şekil almaktadır. Bu açıklamalar doğrultusunda bu çalışmanın amacı, çalışma yaşamında kariyer konusunun öneminden hareketle yeni bir kariyer yaklaşımı olan kaleydoskop kariyer modelini teorik olarak incelemek ve bu konuda alan yazınına katkıda bulunmaktır.
