Abstract	The complex, unpredictable and globalized nature of the current labor market challenges the assumptions and utility of traditional career development theories, with new approaches needed in order to help workers navigate their career experience. This article highlights the characteristics of globalization and the changing economic, cultural, political and social landscape, and their implications in the world of work. Historical career theories and limitations are detailed, as well as modern approaches that have developed in response to the identified challenges of globalization and subsequent shifts in career development needs. The chaos theory of careers is presented as a comprehensive framework with which to conceptualize career choice and development. Chaos theory embraces the complexity, change and unpredictability that modern workers face, and allows for a more open, flexible, dynamic and creative approach. (As Provided).
