Professional careers are the product of a complex interplay of personal effort and learning performance, decisions made based on one’s life and organisational environment, as well as the structural inequality of opportunity within professions, organisations and markets. In light of today’s working world, which is defined by a plurality of values, rapid transformation of knowledge, flexibilisation and growing insecurity, well-trodden career paths are increasingly being replaced by flexible careers that are actively shaped by the workers themselves.
