 Perceived Mentoring Relationships and Career Outcomes—Results from the Indian Power SectorRidhi Arora and Santosh Rangnekar Global Business Review, 2016, vol. 17, issue 3_suppl, 133S-146S Abstract: There has been a growing realization among the organizations for nurturing their workforce through mentoring programmes. The role of mentoring has been found to be highly crucial in influencing the employee’s career outcomes. This study examined the impact of perceived mentoring relationships on the career outcomes of career satisfaction and career commitment. The participants consisted of 124 managers from the Indian power sector organizations. Results depicted that in the Indian power sector, managers only perceived psychosocial mentoring support acted as a significant predictor of career outcomes of career satisfaction and career commitment. However, perceived career mentoring was not found to have any significant impact on career outcomes. Overall, this research contributed in mapping the scenario of perceived mentoring relationships from the employee’s perspective and their linkage with career commitment and career satisfaction in the Indian power sector context. Further, discussion on managerial implications and future directions was also provided.
