Social workers’ career development competencies in Kuwait
Abstract
This study analyzed social workers’ career development competencies data collected in Kuwait. A changed working environment raised new requirements for employees. In today’s society, they are fully responsible for their career development and have to be able to manage it. Career development involves values expression, decision-making style, the person’s creation of a career pattern, self-concepts, and integration of life roles that reflect their life roles. Therefore, a changed working environment highlights career development as one of the most important competencies of employee. Cultural dimensions and the Middle Eastern worldview will be considered while analyzing the data.
