  • First Online:
Handbuch Karriere und Laufbahnmanagement

Part of the book series: Springer Reference Psychologie ((SRP))

Zusammenfassung

Das Buchkapitel erläutert, welche Rolle das soziale Umfeld für die Laufbahnentwicklung spielt. Das soziale Umfeld umfasst Kontakte, die durch direkte und indirekte Beziehungen miteinander verbunden sind. Das Geflecht dieser Beziehungen stellt ein soziales Netzwerk dar, welches Ressourcen und Kapital für die Karriere bietet. Als Einstieg in das Netzwerkthema werden berufliche Netzwerke definiert und verschiedene Netzwerktypen, die im Arbeitskontext relevant sind, vorgestellt. Im nächsten Schritt werden Strukturen beruflicher Netzwerke beschrieben, die Zugang zu sozialen Ressourcen bieten, welche eine entscheidende Rolle für individuellen Arbeitserfolg spielen. Des Weiteren wird auf die Relevanz von beruflichen Netzwerken in unterschiedlichen Laufbahnphasen eingegangen und besprochen, wie Arbeitnehmer Netzwerke für die eigene Laufbahnentwicklung nutzen können. Zum Abschluss wird ein Ausblick gegeben, welche Rolle berufliche Netzwerke für Arbeitgeber spielen.
