Abstract

Today, one of the most important concepts in terms of human resources is a career. Today, many people are setting individual career goals for their work life and trying to improve their performance in order to achieve them, and many businesses are making great efforts to create career plans for the personnel that they employ and to implement them successfully. Career may not hold the same meaning for everyone. For some, a career is advancing in their work, for some achieving higher positions, for some improving themselves, and for some realizing themselves. In today's competitive conditions, where career is becoming more and more important both in terms of businesses and employees, tourism enterprises that want to gain an advantage over the target market and professional tourist guides representing countries, cultures, and people of the country must place importance on career management. Focusing on the importance of career management and career development practices in terms of tourist guides, this study assesses career management practices that can be used to improve the personal accomplishments and performances of tourist guides, as well as perform their profession correctly and promote employee and tourist satisfaction.
