Abstract
Globalization, rapid changes in information and communication technologies, and the emergence of competition in almost all aspects of life have impacted on the work life of people. The concept of a job for life is now a thing of the past. There is constant movement of people from one job place to another taking the form of casual, contract, part-time and full time work options and this bound to impact on their productivity. The uncertainties and constant flux in this aspect of life call for deliberate and conscious actions in order to be successful in one’s work life. These deliberate and conscious actions should gear toward equipping one with the requisite attitudes, competencies, and knowledge to be able to fit into an organization and be relevant for the purposes of the organization and in all these the role of the organization serves as the heartbeat of career development
