Bibliometric Analysis, Career Management, Succession Planning, VOS ViewerAbstract
In recent years, scientific publications on the topic of career management and succession planning (CMSP) within the field of business, management, and accounting have grown significantly. However, a comprehensive bibliometric review of CMSP research is lacking. This study aimed to fill that gap by examining 50 years of CMSP research using the Scopus database, VOS Viewer, and the Bibliometrix R-package. The analysis of 283 articles has uncovered that previous studies on CMSP have mainly focused on family firms, organisational career management, and family businesses. This pioneering study offers valuable insights to current scholars, future researchers, and practitioners by shedding light on CMSP’s evolution and by suggesting potential avenues for further research.
