Abstract

VELOSO, Elza Fátima Rosa; SILVA, Rodrigo Cunha da  and  DUTRA, Joel Souza. Different generations and perceptions of intelligent careers and career growth within organizations. Rev. bras. orientac. prof [online]. 2012, vol.13, n.2, pp. 197-208. ISSN 1984-7270.

This paper aims to analyze the likely relationship between the perception of intelligent careers and of career growth within organizations, considering different preferences and worldviews of the generations: Baby Boomers, X and Y. The information came from the database of an annual survey with companies which seek to stand out in terms of organizational environment and human resource practices. To analyze the results, we used the structural equations modeling. Among the findings we verified a relationship to exist between the perception of two competences of intelligent careers (knowing how and knowing why) and the perception of career growth by generations X and Y. The perception of the competence knowing whom related only to the Baby Boomer generation.

Keywords : generations; intelligent careers; career growth; organizations.
