Abstract

Chapter 3 provides an overview of career development processes and practices, adapting traditional practices to the contemporary VR work landscape. This chapter discusses VR career development as a shared responsibility among organizations, leaders, and employees. The chapter introduces a six-stage career development model, consisting of (1) assessment, (2) exploration, (3) analysis, (4) preparation, (5) execution, and (6) reflection—which are relevant to both traditional and VR work settings. The chapter highlights the differences between how these stages of career development are executed differently in VR settings compared to traditional work settings. It emphasizes how career development needs can be addressed through technology in VR settings. Special attention is given to the unique challenges to career development faced by VR employees and the roles that organizations, leaders, and employees play in supporting their career development.
