1998 - 2000: Sales representative supervisor 

2000 - 2004: Sales Director

2004 - 2010: Operations Director 

2010 - 2014 Vice President for Operations 

2014 - 0000 CEO

Career management is the result and combination of planning and the active management choice of one's own professional career . It's structuring once career development in the Aim of attaining highest outcome which is once own personal fullfillment, financial security etc... Sorry please clarify the second part

The career management process begins with setting goals/objectives. A relatively specific goal/objective must be formulated. This task may be quite difficult when the individual lacks knowledge of career opportunities and/or is not fully aware of their talents and abilities. However, the entire career management process is based on the establishment of defined goals/objectives whether specific or general in nature. Utilizing career assessments may be a critical step in identifying opportunities and career paths that most resonate with someone. Career assessments can range from quick and informal to more in depth. Regardless of the ones you use, you will need to evaluate them. Most assessments found today for free (although good) do not offer an in-depth evaluation.

The time horizon for the achievement of the selected goals or objectives - short term, medium term or long term - will have a major influence on their formulation.

1.     Short-term goals (one or two years) are usually specific and limited in scope. Short-term goals are easier to formulate. Make sure they are achievable and relate to your longer term career goals.

2.     Intermediate goals (3 to 20 years) tend to be less specific and more open ended than short-term goals. Both intermediate and long-term goals are more difficult to formulate than short-term goals because there are so many unknowns about the future.

3.     Long-term goals (Over 20 years), of course, are the most fluid of all. Lack of life experience and knowledge about potential opportunities and pitfalls make the formulation of long-term goals/objectives very difficult. Long-range goals/objectives, however, may be easily modified as additional information is received without a great loss of career efforts because of experience/knowledge transfer from one career to another.

4.     Making career choices and decisions – the traditional focus of careers interventions. The changed nature of work means that individuals may now have to revisit this process more frequently now and in the future, more than in the past.

5.     Managing the organizational career – concerns the career management tasks of individuals within the workplace, such as decision-making, life-stage transitions, dealing with stress etc.

6.     Managing 'boundary less' careers – refers to skills needed by workers whose employment is beyond the boundaries of a single organization, a workstyle common among, for example, artists and designers.

 

7.     Taking control of one's personal development – as employers take less responsibility, employees need to take control of their own development in order to maintain and enhance their employability.

Systematic management is an approach to management that focuses on the management process rather than on the final outcome. The goals to this approach to management were:

 

To create specific processes and procedures to be used in job task completion

 

To ensure that organizational operations were economical

 

To ensure that staffing was adequate for the needs of the organization

 

To maintain suitable inventory so that the demands of consumers could be met

 

To establish organizational controls

 

This type of management approach was the first to directly link orderly operations, human resource management, and communication to organizational success.

 

Major Theorist

 

There are several key individuals who can be credited with the development of the systematic approach to management. Adam Smith was the earliest theorist to contribute to the idea of a need for a system in management. His book 'Wealth of Nations', published in 1776, brought about the initial belief that division of labor was the best way to increase productivity
