Description Companies striving to retain their competitive edge in a highly turbulent business environment are redirecting their performance and career management systems to develop and retain their talent pipeline. The study examines the mediating effect of general selfesteem on the link between the career self-management and career resilience of a non-probability sample of 304 early-career employees in the business management field. A cross-sectional quantitative survey design was followed, collecting primary data. Data analyses consisted of an analysis of correlations and a simple mediation model. The results revealed signifi cant direct and indirect effects between the variables. General self-esteem partially mediated the relationship between career self-management and career resilience. These findings contribute new knowledge that informs organisational performance and career management practices for the retention of talented staff members.Key words: self-esteem, organisational career management, career self-management, career resilience
