- dc.description.abstract The changing nature of career paths and boundaries in the last decades enable professionals to be more flexible about their careers and explore different opportunities. Boundarylessness of career, however, also makes it more challenging for employees to build competence in their fields. myUNFPA Journey is a communication plan created to address the issue of lack of career development for staff in the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA). The project is based upon a review of academic publications elaborating on the responsibility of organizations to support their employees’ careers. Relevant studies also explain internal communication’s role in the relationship between organization and staff, addressing the needs of both parties— including career development. Evidence gathered from surveys, content and web data analysis, and direct observation through an internship with the organization reveals that career development is one of the top factors of employee dissatisfaction in UNFPA. With the availability of internal human, physical, and digital resources in UNFPA, a strategic plan to actively communicate career development to employees globally is devised. Methods for evaluation are also proposed to measure the success and effectiveness of the communication plan. This applied project makes recommendations for implementation in UNFPA and further development of the strategy for similar organizations. It also contributes to communication professionals looking to improve organizational reputation and employee satisfaction. This project underlines the importance of internal communication management in maintaining diverse, international systems such as UNFPA.ca
