Essay from the year 2003 in the subject Leadership and Human Resource Management - Miscellaneous, grade: 72%,1,3, A, University of Teesside (Business School), course: Managing Human Resources, language: English, abstract: Career plans, in the literature also referred to as ’training and development plans’ or ’personal development plans’ (PDP), are the reaction to a changing business world and social environment in theory. Bagshaw (1996: p.16) suggests that '...the dynamic people of today’s dynamic world are attracted to jobs where they can see clear development for themselves, with opportunities spreading in all directions.' Accordingly, employees increasingly demand the possibility to develop themselves and their careers within the organisation. Employees who are able and willing to participate in development programmes should be more motivated and higher skilled than their ’non-developing’ colleagues.

To create motivated and high-skilled workforce, some organisations introduced different approaches for a systematic career management.

Development means gathering knowledge, which is suggested to be the 'only meaningful resource today' (Reynolds and Ablett, 1998: p. 26) that makes an organisation more productive and more competitive (Evans, 1998). In consequence, career plans are the most promising method of personal development with
