Do you know what a Protean Career is? We spoke with Maria Santarlasci, Organizational Transformation Coordinator at Natura&Co, about this new career management model.

She shares her perspectives and achievements throughout her own career, telling us her story of success and protagonism.

Research conducted with both young people and professionals of all ages reveals a growing tendency for individuals to use their own criteria for success, usually focused on self-fulfillment and happiness, unlike what was valued during the period in which the traditional career model prevailed, where the focus was on external conditions such as salary, hierarchical level, and status. From this perspective, a career is seen as a sequence of work experiences throughout life that enable personal satisfaction and psychological success.

This new view of career is called the Protean Career by Hall, in reference to the mythological figure Proteus, who had the ability to change his form at will. Under this model, people begin to value the freedom to grow and find challenges not only across a wide variety of companies, but also in every sphere of human experience.
