Abstract

Managers should pay attention to the development of their employees' career if they wish to get a fully committed and satisfied employee to work for them. Unfortunately, the literature could not provide a clear guidance about the factors that might contribute to the development of employee career in the context of developing countries. The purpose of this paper is to explore the effect of training program and work experiences on career development, either directly or via employee skills. This research was conducted at Denpasar Social Affairs Office, with the number of samples was 67 employees. Data was collected through the help of questionnaire, and was analyzed with path analysis. The results show that training program and work experiences influence employees' career development. Furthermore, employee skills also provide an impact to the career development. Finally, it can be found that employee skills play a role as mediating variable in the relationship between training program or work experiences and career development.
