Career planning as a building block of personal excellence

Marija Turnšek Mikačić (Author), Marija Ovsenik (Author)

Abstract

The narrow field of research here is the development of a model for the building of personal excellence using a career plan that is empirically tested and confirmed, both qualitatively and quantitatively. The purpose of this study relates to the writing of a career plan, for the determination of the factors that influence the feeling of personal excellence of participants in career planning education, in relation to other participants who are not. The qualitative analysis consists of basic experience data that was collected during the education process, through 20 essays, and the paradigmatic model, with the final theory defined, and based on this, a questionnaire was created. The quantitative analysis involved a total of 547 participants. For the statistical analyses of the data, bivariate analysis was used to assess the linear connection of individual pairs of variables. The search for differences between the two groups used t-tests for independent samples. Factor analysis was used to determine whether the relations among the examined variables can be explained with a smaller number of indirectly examined variables. The final model consists of three elements: (1) relation with career; (2) self-esteem; and (3) perception of personal excellence. Management can use the results of this study for management decisions. The increased success of every individual organisation benefits the whole of society. This study represents an original contribution and offers a new approach that is based on the paradigm of the understanding of a career and the importance of its planning as a motive for excellence.

Secondary title:	Karierni načrt kot gradnik osebne odličnosti
Secondary abstract:	Ozko področje raziskave je zgraditi model model gradnje osebne odličnosti s pomočjo kariernega načrta, ki je kvantitativno in kvalitativno empirično preverjen. Namen raziskave je določiti faktorje, ki vplivajo na občutek osebne odličnosti udeležencev izobraževanja in izdelave kariernega načrta v primerjavi s tistimi, ki se niso karierno izobraževali. Pri kvalitativni analizi je osnovno izkustveno gradivo zbrano med izobraževalnim procesom v 20 esejih in oblikovan paradigmatski model s končno teorijo, na podlagi katere smo izdelali vprašalnik. Kvantitativna raziskava je izvedena s 547 udeleženci in neudeleženci izobraževanja. S statistično analizo podatkov smo z bivariantno analizo testirali linearno povezanost posameznih parov spremenljivk. Pri preverjanju razlik med obema skupinama smo uporabili t-test za neodvisne vzorce. S faktorsko analizo smo ugotavljali, ali se zveze med opazovanimi spremenljivkami lahko pojasnijo z manjšim številom posredno opazovanih spremenljivk ali kazalnikov. Končni model vsebuje tri elemente: (1) odnos do kariere, (2) samopodobo in (3) zaznavanje osebne odličnosti. Vodstvo lahko takoj uporabi rezultate te raziskave pri odločanju. Povečana uspešnost vsake posamezne organizacije je v korist celotne družbe. Raziskava predstavlja izvirni prispevek in daje nova spoznanja, temelječa na paradigmi razumevanja kariere in pomenu njenega načrtovanja, kot motiva odličnosti.
