Reasons for Changing Jobs within a Career Structure

Abstract

Organisations are very much aware of the importance in retaining their professional, key personnel. An appreciation of the motives that activate and sustain employees′ behaviour is paramount in career management. The findings of a survey which analysed the career development of construction managers are reported. The evidence suggests that the reasons for changing jobs vary dependent upon the individual′s occupational background and level in the management hierarchy.
