GHRF 2009: Mass Career Customization New paradigm of career development model.wmv

Currently, labor markets all over the world including that of Korea are experiencing rapid changes, e.g., increased percentage of female workers, changes in the traditional roles of women at workplaces, and different expectations and sense of values held by the X-Y generations toward the company. In Korea in particular, the rigidity in managing manpower at enterprises intensifies as the phenomenon of aging manpower deepens. Koreas birthrate, considered the lowest among OECD countries, is expected to put pressure on acquiring manpower in the future. Such qualitative changes in the labor market imply the need for the fundamental reexamination of the human resource management paradigm of enterprises. Insisting on the past Growth-oriented vertical experience platform and ignoring the organization members sense of value and diversity of desires will not motivate organization members, with enterprises experiencing various operating issues. Assuming that the time has come when it is difficult for the existing desire to improve ones career to serve as a motivation, and that the people now carry extremely flexible thinking with regard to the speed and pattern of career development, the Mass Career Customization model of Deloitte Consulting has presented a new human resource management paradigm that accommodates the current changes in manpower composition and diversity of desires. This session attempts to provide a venue for listening to and discussing directly with the writer the theories of and viewpoints on mass career customization -- which is currently drawing a lot of attention in global markets including the US -- and the specific implementation programs and cases. This will serve as an opportunity to graft the flexibility and creativity of human resource power with those of Korean enterprises.
