Abstract

In today's rapidly evolving business world, effective planning and guiding of individuals' career paths are essential for both their personal growth and the long-term success of organizations. Particularly in foundational sectors like education, managing employees' careers can impact critical factors such as educational quality and student success, extending beyond individual job satisfaction. Therefore, gaining a more comprehensive understanding of the connection between organizational career planning and individual career satisfaction is crucial. This is not only to enhance individuals' job satisfaction but also to assist organizations in crafting more strategic career management policies. This study aims to closely examine the influence of organizational career planning on the career satisfaction of teachers. Conducted on 619 teachers in the Kilis province, this study contributes to a deeper understanding of teachers' career planning processes and their effects on career satisfaction. Data were collected through an online survey method in January and March 2023, and analyses were conducted using SPSS 26 and AMOS programs. According to the study's findings, the sub-dimensions of organizational career planning, "Performance and Talent Display (PTD)," "Needs and Competency Alignment (NCA)," and "Training and Development (TD)" had a positive and significant impact on teachers' career satisfaction. These results offer a broader perspective on how organizational career planning can influence career satisfaction. Furthermore, the overall outcome of the study indicates that organizational career planning has a positive and significant effect on teachers' overall career satisfaction.
