Commitment Leading Towards Success: A Study of Bank Employees of Pakistan

Abstract

This article aims to create a linkage of commitment with the career success amongst banking sector employees residing in Punjab, Pakistan. Employees (Managers and officers) of public sector banks were taken as population from which sample was selected using two stage cluster sampling. Data was collected using questionnaire, which was distributed among 240 bankers. The response rate was 54 percent.  Data was analyzed by using SPSS and STATISTIC a software. Through analysis, it is established that organizational commitment (OC) has a direct influence on career commitment (CC). Moreover, two indicators of career success (CS) i.e. a) objective CS and; b) subjective CS appeared as important consequences of career commitment. Therefore, this study generates an insight that commitment to organization and with career, leads employees towards career success. This is prerequisite to strengthen the belief of today’s dynamic environment that both the employees and organizations are mutually responsible for achieving career success.
