Of these, 246 questionnaires were deemed suitable for further analysis. Convenience sampling has been used as a key technique for collecting data. For data analysis, SPSS (version 25) and SmartPLS (version 3.3.9) statistical software were used. The findings indicated that objective and subjective criteria significantly affect career success. The results also showed that HRM practices and employee behavior significantly and positively influenced career success.

Despite a widespread consensus towards the implications of workplace ostracism to employees, little research attention has been paid to exploring its determinants, especially in the educational ...sector. In the context of higher education institutions, workplace ostracism can lead to a number of undesired outcomes, such as deviant workplace behavior, turnover, and decreased job performance. Thus, this study aims to explore the role of perceived organizational politics in promoting workplace ostracism. Drawing on the social exchange theory, the study also attempts to identify the mediating role of interpersonal distrust in the relationship between perceived organizational politics and workplace ostracism in higher education institutions. Data were conveniently collected from 154 full-time faculty members serving in five public universities in Bangladesh. To test the research hypotheses, the study employed partial least squares path modeling. The findings revealed that there is a significant positive association between perceived organizational politics and workplace ostracism and that interpersonal distrust plays an intervening role in the relationship. These results highlight the role of perceived organizational politics and interpersonal distrust in shaping academics’ workplace ostracism. Based on the findings, the study suggests both practical and theoretical implications with directions for future research.

This study aims to examine the impact of career planning and career satisfaction on employees’ turnover intention and the mediating role of career satisfaction from the perspective of banks ...employees’ in the Jordanian capital Amman. The survey questionnaire was gathered from 412 employees located in 25 banks in the Jordanian capital Amman. The study used the software SmartPLS (version 3.2.8) to test the study hypotheses. The findings indicate that career planning and career satisfaction negatively impact employees’ turnover intention, and career satisfaction partially mediated the relationship between career planning and employees’ turnover intention. Additionally, this study aims to evaluate previous items that were developed by Gould (1979) to measure career planning, using focus group interview for six managers of the human resource department in the Jordanian banks' sector. According to the results of the interview, some items were reformulated and three new items were created. Future studies may include expansion of this model by adding variables related to organizational behaviours such as individual career management or career adaptation.
