Abstract

The article explores some issues connected with trajectories of professional development of employees. The authors note that as the digital economy develops, its requirements have an increasing impact on human resource management.For example, continuous employee learning is a new strategy of constant skill and knowledge development in response to changes in the workplace.Today, an employee needs to acquire new knowledge and skills. However, technological, informational, methodological, and psychological problems arise in this regard. The most obvious are the lack of motivation for continuous professional self-development, the lack of talent management systems, insufficient assessment and self-assessment tools. The article presents the results of the survey completed by 101 employees who work in different professional fields: education, business, public service, manufacturing, art, medicine, and politics. Most of the respondents have more than ten years of work experience and are ordinary employees of the organization. However, some CEOs, HODs and line managers completed the survey as well. Based on the findings of the research, authors offer some guidelines for HR team that helps build individual roadmaps for professional development of employees.
