This paper aims to focus on the process of personal transformation, the collective dimensions and the unexpected effects of the transformation.\u0000\u0000\u0000Design/methodology/approach\u0000This paper used a mixed qualitative design that mainly combines a qualitative two-step study of 47 women to assess their personal changes in terms of self-confidence, self-efficacy and assertiveness.

Specifically, the PRISMA extension Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis for Protocols (PRISMA-P, Moher et al., 2015) was used to direct each stage of the research, from the literature review to the conclusion.

The authors first argue that organizational tenure – the length of time employed within a specific organization – will exhibit a curvilinear or inverted-U-shaped relationship with career initiative. In the early years of an employment relationship, career initiative gradually increases as employees overcome the initial challenges of joining a new organization. However, career initiative will plateau and eventually decline as employees struggle to envision further development.\u0000\u0000\u0000Design/methodology/approach\u0000This study uses a survey design with data collected from the North American operations of a large global telecommunications company.\u0000\u0000\u0000Findings\u0000This study identifies two key mechanisms, both concerning relational context, that drive the curvilinear relationship between organizational tenure and career initiative: mentoring and barriers to networking. Specifically, increased mentoring and reduced barriers to networking both significantly weaken the curvilinear effect.\u0000\u0000\u0000Research limitations/implications\u0000The results suggest that organizations can promote proactive behaviors through employee mentoring and by removing network barriers, particularly for those most at risk for reduced career initiative: early- and especially later-tenure employees.\u0000\u0000\u0000Originality/value\u0000Career initiative is a valued behavior among employees, but individual-level phenomena can be fostered, or inhibited, by relational context.
