Question 1
According to Coetzee and Schreuder (2021) adaptive career behaviours comprise four
basic forms namely adaptive readiness, adaptability resources, adapting responses,
and adaptation outcomes. Arthur, Inkson and Pringle (1995) seal that the concept of
adaptive career behaviours provides a framework for understanding how individuals
navigate career challenges. According to Coetzee and Schreuder (2021) in the
modern career landscape, individuals must continually adjust to changes,
uncertainties, and transitions, and according to the Career Adaptability Model,
adaptive career behaviours consist of these four key components namely adaptive
readiness, adaptability resources, adapting responses, and adaptation outcomes
(Savickas, 2013). It is againmst this background that the discusion in this essay
differentiates these components and explains their role in shaping career
development.
Adaptive readiness
According to Coetzee and Schreuder (2021) Adpative readiness refers to an
individual's willingness and flexibility to embrace change, particularly in uncertain work
contexts. It is a psychological state that activates the use of adaptability resources.
Adaptive readiness is characterised by career agility, career motivation, and flexibility.
Thus, according to Coetzee and Schreuder (2021) this relates to an individual's
psychological and personality-based predisposition to engage in career adaptation. It
includes traits such as openness to change, resilience, and proactive career attitudes
(Hirschi, 2018). Individuals with high adaptive readiness are more likely to anticipate
and embrace career transitions, whereas those with lower adaptive readiness may
struggle with career uncertainty. Career agility involves technological adaptivity,
capability for agile learning, and career navigation orientation. Career motivation is a
multi-dimensional construct that includes career identity, career insight, and resilience.
