The purpose of this paper is to examine the potential effects of Millennial knowledge workers’ emotional intelligence (EI) on their subjective career success (SCS) through their protean career attitudes (PCAs) and psychological empowerment (PE).,Survey methodology was used to collect data from 623 Millennial knowledge workers in 42 Turkish Information Technology companies. Participants answered the surveys at three different points within a 12-week period. Measures of EI, PCAs, PE and SCS were analyzed using structural equation modeling and the bootstrapping method.,The empirical results provide support for the author’s proposed model that positive relations between EI and Millennial knowledge workers’ SCS are mediated by their PCAs and PE.,To generalize the study findings, future research should be conducted for Millennial knowledge workers in different cultures and countries.,Particularly for Millennial knowledge workers, managers need to be aware of positive influence of EI on employees’ SCS and should consider implementing policies and procedures that recognize EI as a key ingredient for their SCS. Additionally, human resource professionals should aim to create an organizational culture around career development, in addition to career attitudes trainings, and provide career growth opportunities to retain Millennial talent. Finally, organizational development professionals should establish work environments that increase employee empowerment and thus improve SCS.,The findings advance the understanding of how Millennial knowledge workers’ EI can influence their SCS through focusing on PCAs and PE. The results underpin the self-determination theory, contextualist action theory of career development and job design theory.

千禧一代知识工作者

本文的目的是通过千变万化的职业态度（PCA）和心理授权（PE）来检验千禧一代知识型员工的情商（EI）对他们的主观职业成功（SCS）的潜在影响。从42家土耳其信息技术公司的623名千禧一代知识工作者那里收集数据。参与者在12周内的三个不同时间点回答了调查。利用结构方程模型和自举法对EI，PCA，PE和SCS的度量进行了分析。实证结果为作者提出的模型提供了支持，即EI与千禧知识工作者的SCS之间的正相关关系是由PCA和PE介导的。为了概括研究结果，未来应该针对不同文化和国家/地区的千禧一代知识工作者进行研究。特别是对于千禧一代知识工作者，管理者需要意识到EI对员工SCS的积极影响，并应考虑实施将EI作为关键要素的政策和程序。为他们的SCS。此外，人力资源专业人员除旨在进行职业态度培训外，还应着眼于围绕职业发展创建一种组织文化，并提供职业发展机会以留住千禧一代的人才。最后，组织发展专业人员应建立工作环境，以增强员工的能力，从而改善SCS。研究结果使人们进一步了解千禧一代知识型员工的EI如何通过关注PCA和PE来影响其SCS。
