Navigating sustainable careers: A conceptual framework on subjective person-career fit dynamics
Sustainable careers have become a central focus in careers research. However, the mechanisms linking influential factors enacted by key stakeholders and sustainable career outcomes remain insufficiently theorized. Building on the process model of sustainable careers, person-environment-fit theory, and sustainable career ecosystem theory, our conceptual framework positions subjective person-career (P−C) fit as the central link explaining how individuals navigate and adapt their careers over time and across social contexts. Specifically, we emphasize how dynamic compatibility between personal factors and career environment elements shapes subjective P−C fit, further impacting sustainable career outcomes (i.e., happiness, health, and productivity). Additionally, we elaborate on the role of dynamic feedback loops, coping and defense mechanisms, self-directed career orientations, and a balance of proximal and distal outcome perspectives in the relationship between subjective P−C fit and sustainable career outcomes. In doing so, we introduce a key mechanism to connect career actors and outcomes in the sustainable career ecosystem model, highlighting the importance of integrating individual agency, contextual influences, and evolving career meaning for the individual into a single framework. Our conceptual framework is accompanied by a set of propositions to guide future empirical investigations in sustainable careers and person-career fit research.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Vocational Behavior publishes original empirical and theoretical articles offering unique insights into the realms of career choice, career development, and work adjustment across the lifespan. These contributions are not only valuable for academic exploration but also find applications in counseling and career development programs across diverse sectors such as colleges, universities, business, industry, government, and the military.
The primary focus of the journal centers on individual decision-making regarding work and careers, prioritizing investigations into personal career choices rather than organizational or employer-level variables. Example topics encompass a broad range, from initial career choices (e.g., choice of major, initial work or organization selection, organizational attraction) to the development of a career, work transitions, work-family management, and attitudes within the workplace (such as work commitment, multiple role management, and turnover).
