Students should pick two ACADEMIC articles, written by different authors that address Middle Career Stage management topic. Both articles should address the same topic. Any topic found in the Subject Index of the Greenhaus text is permissible. After reading the two articles, write a seven page abstract that covers the items noted below. The purpose of the article abstract is to increase awareness of current trends in Career Management and relate those trends to theories discussed in the texts. The Abstract should provide a brief overview/summary of the two articles contents, distinguishing the main issues, accurately identifying the impact of each issue on today's organizations and tying and discussing relevant information to issues found within the text.
The paper should be six (7) pages in length and follow the APA writing conventions. It must include all of the headings found below. The choice of topic is Middle Career Stage. Both articles you choose should be recent (within last seven (7) years) and academic in nature - the best choices for articles can be found in academic journals. I encourage you to utilize the Webster University Library to find appropriate articles. Less than that will result in a deduction in grade. Write in the third person - first person references will result in a point deduction. The paper should contain a title page and meet the following requirements:
1. Overview:This explains what the topic is and why it is important.
- Main Issues
