ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the related mechanism of clinical nurses′career growth from three aspects such as organization, family and oneself. Methods Totally 480 clinical registered nurses from eight tertiary first- class hospitals of Tianjin City were investigated with the Proactive Personality Scale, Psychological Safety Climate Scale, Work- Family Support Scale,Career Growth Scale by convenient sampling method. Results Latent interaction structural equation modeling (SEM) showed that family support and work support both had a positive effect on career growth, whose path coefficient were 0.42 and 0.26 respectively, P0.05. Hierarchical regression analyses showed that proactive personality had a negative effect on the relationship of work support and career growth whose regression coefficient was -0.148, P<0.01, and psychological safety climate had a positive effect on the relationship of work support and career growth whose regression coefficient was 0.178, P<0.05. Conclusions In order to promote clinical nurses′career growth, the construction of nurse team and improve quality of nursing, hospital and nurse managers should construct a favorable work atmosphere, provide more support, attach importance to the effect of individual personality on career growth and help nurse deal with work and family well.

Este estudo objetiva analisar a possível relação entre a percepção das carreiras inteligentes e a percepção sobre crescimento profissional nas organizações, considerando as distintas preferências e visões de mundo das gerações Baby boomers, X e Y. As informações são provenientes de um banco de dados de uma pesquisa, realizada anualmente, com organizações que procuram se destacar em termos de clima organizacional e práticas de gestão de pessoas. Para análise dos resultados, foi utilizada a modelagem de equações estruturais. Entre as descobertas, constatou-se a relação entre as percepções sobre duas competências das carreiras inteligentes (Knowing how e Knowing why) e a percepção de crescimento profissional das gerações X e Y.

This paper aims to analyze the likely relationship between the perception of intelligent careers and of career growth within organizations, considering different preferences and worldviews of the generations: Baby Boomers, X and Y. The information came from the database of an annual survey with companies which seek to stand out in terms of organizational environment and human resource practices. To analyze the results, we used the structural equations modeling. Among the findings we verified a relationship to exist between the perception of two competences of intelligent careers (knowing how and knowing why) and the perception of career growth by generations X and Y. The perception of the competence knowing whom related only to the Baby Boomer generation.

Este estudo teve como objetivo verificar a relação entre a adoção de práticas de gestão de carreira por empresas atuantes no mercado nacional e a percepção de seus empregados, executivos e não executivos, sobre suas possibilidades de crescimento profissional no seu emprego atual. Para o cumprimento de tais objetivos, 550 empresas foram pesquisadas e os resultados apurados por meio de estatísticas descritivas e de um modelo Probit. Foi constatado um maior impacto das práticas de gestão de carreira sobre a percepção dos não executivos. Os executivos, provavelmente por terem suas competências mais desenvolvidas que os não executivos, percebem suas possibilidades de crescimento profissional de forma menos dependente da empresa onde trabalham.
This study aimed at investigating the relationship between the adoption of practices of career management by companies, operating in the domestic market, and the perception by its employees, both executives and non-executives, about their chances of career growth at their current job. To that end, 550 companies were surveyed and the results were calculated using descriptive statistics and a Probit model. A greater impact was noted of career management practices on the perception by non-executives. As to the executives, probably because they had developed their skills more fully than the non-executives, perceived their opportunities of career growth in a less dependent way on the company where they work.
