Abstract

This study aims to see how contextual support, personal mastery, self-efficacy, out- come expectation, and passion influence potential career choices in project man- agement. The demand for project management practitioners is increasing, yet the younger generations are not particularly interested in pursuing this career. A quan- titative study was conducted by collecting data from 346 university students and entry-level employees in project management using an online survey. Analyses using SEM have showed that personal mastery positively influences self-efficacy and outcome expectations. Both outcome expectations and passion positively influ- ence career interests. There is no direct relationship between self-efficacy and career interests. The practical implication of this study is to have a better understanding on what influences people in pursuing a career, specifically in project management.
