Holding a chief position in an organized hierarchy means accepting a wide range of duties. What it leads to is a prolonganization and adaptation of the working time as well as its pragmatization as far as the time (e.g. private time, leisure time) not directly connected to the individual’s job is concerned. The need to subordinate, for not to call it incorporate all the other spheres of life into the business actions leads to “temporal tensions” emerging between discrepancies previously autonomous. The author of this paper reconstructed these tensions by showing different strategies and peculiar neutralizations which are used by managers in order to diminish or solve the tensions. The methodology of grounded theory has been applied to analyse the collected material (narrative interviews). The outcomes of the research result from very detailed and arduous analyses of 35 managers’ life-stories according to symbolic interactionism paradigm.

LT
Straipsnį sudaro dvi dalys. Pirmojoje dalyje pristatomi Lietuvos Didžiosios Kunigaikštystės paskutiniojo didžiojo etmono Simono Kosakovskio biografiniai duomenys, ypatingą dėmesį atkreipiant į jo veiklą Baro ir Targovicos konfederacijos metais. Pagrindinės aptariamos valstybinės bei visuomeninės raiškos sritys – tai politinė veikla, karyba ir diplomatija. Antroje straipsnio dalyje mėginama įvertinti S. Kosakovskio veiklą ir jo karjerą Abiejų Tautų Respublikoje, suprasti šios istorinės asmenybės sprendimus nulėmusius faktorius, apibūdinti tradicionalistų politinės grupuotės nuostatas. Straipsnyje pateikiama daug naujos archyvinės medžiagos, stengiamasi diskutuoti su įsigalėjusiais istoriografijos stereotipais.

The article consists of two parts. The first part presents biographical data about the the last Grand Hetman of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, especially his activities during the time of the Bar and Targowica Confederations. Primary emphasis is on the political, military, and diplomatic aspects of his career. The second part tries to analyze and evaluate his activities and career in the service of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, to understand the factors which helped determine his decisions, and to describe the attitudes of the traditionalist political group. The article contains much new archival material and challenges entrenched historical stereotypes.

The scientific discussion about the phenomenon of career rarely concerns teachers, therefore in the review of the book titled Kariery zawodowe nauczycieli. Konteksty – Wzory – Pola dyskursu by Hanna Kędzierska, published in 2012, I pay attention to the interesting approach to this issue, proposed by the author. The broad context of teachers’ professional activity constitutes an opportunity for reflection on the consequences of the political transformation for the ethos of the teacher’s work in modern times.

The aim of this article is to indicate selected possibilities of analysing the construct of proactivity. This goal was achieved by referring to selected definitions and the concepts of proactivity and by discussing a research project aimed at recognizing the proactivity of students towards their professional career. To measure the level of proactivity, the Scale of Proactive Behavior in Career was used, which includes four types of proactivity: general, cognitive, in building a support network and in building psychological comfort. The independent variables in the research were: taking on professional activity during studies, using services offered by a Career Office and a career counsellor. 271 students from four Polish universities took part in the study. The highest mean score was on the general proactivity scale, followed by the proactivity scale in building a support network, the scale of proactivity in building psychological comfort, and the lowest on the scale of cognitive proactivity. These means differ statistically. The conducted analysis also proved that the level of proactivity is statistically significantly differentiated depending on whether the respondents used the Career Office or a career counsellor. The conclusions from the analysis were discussed in two perspectives – diagnostic and methodical.

One characteristic of professionals is that they reflect on the nature of their discipline. Attention to the history of one’s discipline is an important way of doing this. The article reflects efforts to trace the historical roots of vocational theory. It locates some recognizable modern concepts in ancient civilizations (Eastern Mediterranean and Chinese), in a 10th century Iraqi, in late Renaissance Spain, in the mid 1700’s and 1800’s. It also discusses similarities between several ideas about the choice of an occupation that are echoed in contemporary career counselling theory as for example informed choice and person-occupation congruence.

Tested hypothesis derived from J. L. Holland’s (1997) theory of vocational choice: relations between combination of levels personality dimensions (Consistency, and Differentiation) and three work related personal variables (Self-Control, Acquiescence and Pragmatism). Holland’s Vocational Preference Inventory – VPI (Polish version 1998 by Nosal, Piskorz i Świąt-nicki) was used to identify consistent-inconsistent and differentiated-undifferentiated vocational patterns. Measures of Self-Control and Acquiescence were also computed using the VPI. Wojciszke’s The Pragmatism Scale (derived in part from the Self-Monitoring Scale and based on M. Snyder’s – 1974, 1979 – theory of the pragmatic and principled selves) was used to identify level of Pragmatism. Ss were 100 person, 66 women and 34 men, ages 23 to 61 years (M = 34,86,SD = 10,88) with higher level of education. They represented conventional and social types of vocation. Ss’ scores on VPI inventory using cluster analysis were grouped into three combinations of personality profiles – Consistent/Differentiated, Inconsistent/Differentiated, and Inconsistent/Undifferentiated. By using clusters as independent variables was found that Inconsistent/Undifferentiated profiles had the lowest Acquiescence scores and Consistent/Differentiated had the lowest Self-Control scores. Inconsistent/Differentiated profiles were associated with the highest Pragmatism.

Professional career has become an increasingly frequently chosen subject of theoretical research based on numerous sciences, such as psychology, sociology, economics, pedagogy, and management. Constantly emerging, new theories of professional development provide a new perspective on this issue. A plethora of contemporary transformations obliges an individual to take responsibility for his or her own professional biography. If every person carries out a career, regardless of its quality, and if that career lasts for the person’s whole lifetime, both throughout the period of professional activity and the time of preparation preceding it, one can presume that the choice of career requires reflection and in-depth conceptual considerations, which proves its significance for the subject.

It is talented employees who create organizational capital. This assumption is a source of academic discourse and a real problem facing the organization in its operations. Retaining workers who have a strong influence on current and future organizational market conditions in a company constitutes a considerable difficulty. Theoretical and empirical studies on the retention of talented individuals fail to provide sufficient practical solutions or suggestions. This is mainly the result of a lack of consensus in the organizational understanding of talent. The retention of talents may be increased by suitable prospects of career development, for example. The aim of this article is to present insights into existing theoretical and practical solutions in the career development of talented individuals. It is the correlation between the referent for talent and solutions in talent management, with an emphasis on career management, that is the research subject of this article. The results received structure the various issues in this field and provide suggestions for organizational practice.

Pracownicy utalentowani stanowią kapitał organizacji; jest to podstawa zarówno dyskursu akademickiego, jak i realny problem działalności organizacji . To zaś co stanowi istotny problem to utrzymanie w organizacji zasobu o tak silnym wpływie na jej aktualną i przyszłą kondycję rynkową. Refleksja teoretyczna i stan badań nad retencją pracowników utalentowanych nie dają satysfakcjonującej odpowiedzi ani sugestii dla praktyki w tym zakresie. Wynika to głównie z braku konsensusu w organizacyjnym rozumieniu talentu. Retencja talentów może być wsparta m.in. ofertą rozwoju kariery. Celem artykułu był wgląd w istniejące teoretyczne i praktyczne rozwiązania dotyczące zarządzania karierami utalentowanych pracowników. Problemem badawczym uczyniono natomiast poznanie relacji pomiędzy desygnatem pojęcia talent a rozwiązaniami w zakresie zarządzania talentami z naciskiem na zarządzanie ich karierami. Uzyskane wyniki porządkują badany obszar, stanowiąc równocześnie sugestie dla praktyki organizacji.

Employability, understood as a set of achievements – skills, knowledge, personal qualities – that make graduates employable and successful in their profession, is more and more often a subject of research, both in the context of improving the educational offer of universities, as well as examining the quality of life and professional satisfaction of graduates. Employability is differentiated from employment – the state of having a job. In today’s unstable job market where temporary contracts and protean-type careers dominate – equipping graduates with the resources to effectively change or modify their career path is crucial. The paper aims to present the psychometric proprieties of a Polish adaptation of the A. Rothwell and Arnold Self-Perceived Employability Scale. The final version consists of 9 items and has good psychometric properties. The study of the perceived employability of students provides important knowledge regarding the graduates’ competencies, and it is an important factor in modifying the educational offer at universities and planning graduates’ satisfying careers in the contemporary unstable job market.

The aim of the article is to answer the question if and to what extent the young generation of Poles has accepted the models of professional career which include qualities characteristic for post-modern labour market, i.e. unemployment episodes, incomplete and insecure employment and unusual forms of work. The analysis of quantitative and qualitative data facilitated obtaining the answers to the question. Quantitative data comprised the data from two editions of the research: Lubuskie Social Survey (Lubuski Sondaz Spoleczny) / 2005 and 2009, and the research on unemployed graduates in Lubuskie Tri-City / 2007. Qualitative data included: in-depth interviews with inhabitants of Lubuskie Province on social and individual consequences of unusual forms of employment. The analysis of results shows that young people, despite the awareness of unemployment or incomplete and insecure employment, seek occupational stability and obtaining a contract of employment of indefinite duration in the nearest future. For the people who are well-educated and well-qualified, and who are demanded in the labour market, it is obvious to do some unusual work and create in such a way their professional career. What is more, they believe that such a situation gives them the sense of opportunity to decide about their career.

The purpose of this article is to describe the perception of time by men and women in managerial positions in business organizations (and the specific actions resulting from that perception). The differences and similarities in perceiving time by representatives of the two sexes were reconstructed on the basis of nearly fifty narrative interviews conducted within the framework of two projects: ’The Temporal Aspect of Managerial Careers’ (concluded in 2005) and the ongoing ’Spatial Aspect of Managerial Careers’. In the context of the titular gender perspective, what is noteworthy is the vision of their careers that organizational actors’ declare and realize, in that they perceive them, despite the contradictions resulting from the gender difference, as being planned and realized through persistence.Key categories describing this type of attitude are those of the ’self-made man’ and ’self-made woman’. Differences in ways of realizing the ideal of the inner-directed manager, which are the effect of a culturally conditioned perception of the role that men and women ’should’ fill, are also important. Analysis of the data collected was conducted on the basis of grounded theory methodology

The contemporary study of careers requires taking into consideration multicontextual changes in the world of work, which make individuals face new challenges. The purpose of this article is to draw attention to the numerous transformations taking place in the contemporary reality, including in the world of work, which influence people’s professional career, the significance attributed to it and the success achieved through it. This article presents the results of own research concerning career success as perceived from the perspective of academic students from Poland. Particular attention was paid to two aspects of this issue: its objective and subjective nature, as well as the assessment of own chances for achieving it within one’s career path. The results of the studies prove, that the surveyed youth perceives success in a career in a subjective manner, but that its objective dimension is also important for the academic students, and that the vast majority take a positive attitude towards their own professional future. The resulting empirical material may carry important implications for the educational practice.

The orientation of a contemporary society towards a global career creates the need of rebuilding the frames of human activity and innovation. The most important is active participation and cooperation in a reality undergoing a permanent change. Conceptualization of quality new apprehension of career issues as an individual’s possession indicates a many-sided character of a contemporary discourse, which combines implications of an interdisciplinary dialogue and creates the need to review theoretical reflection about the way of understanding career and conditions, as well as indicators of its formation and construction. The „prodevelopmental orientation” is a remedy for a contemporary human being to be oneself again in this situation in the world of careers. In this attitude towards the definition of „a career”, one underlines importance of constructing (not choosing) a career for designing a quality of life.

The narration of this article is focused on showing various ways of capturing the phenomenon of career from a subjective perspective. The subject of an analysis will be the reconstruction of chosen theoretical perspectives, where one emphasizes changes in quality attitude to the career phenomenon and showing the “career making” meaning of people’s activities. The content presented in this article is concentrated on a subjective, personal aspect of capturing a career. In this sense, career is always ascribed to a specific individual, it is their assets and this particular individual attaches importance to the career phenomenon. In this sense, career is the sequence of experiences of a particular individual, linked with the quality of a professional life; this is a unique structure, resulting from autonomous choices.
