What Is Career Pathing? | HR Glossary | BambooHR
Mapping the possible routes an employee can take to progress and develop within an organisation.
Career pathing is the process of defining and communicating how employees can grow — the roles, skills and experiences that lead from one position to the next within the organisation.
Visible career paths boost motivation and retention by showing people a future where they are, reducing the temptation to look elsewhere for progression.
Effective pathing links to job architecture and development planning, so the steps are realistic and supported rather than aspirational in name only.
