dc.description.abstract As a significant determinant of career success, this study is to discuss the relationship between self-monitoring and career success by undertaking study on Management postgraduate students in selected national universities in Sri Lanka. There are relatively little research that has examined the interaction of person-based factors such as self-monitoring. This appears to be a fruitful area for research, examining the impact of self-monitoring on career success. The main objective of this research is to find out whether there is a significant relationship of self-monitoring personality on career success. The research problem of the study is “whether there is a significant positive relationship between self-monitoring personality and career success. The data were collected using convenient sample of 128 second year postgraduate management students within the selected national universities in Sri Lanka through a structured questionnaire which consisted of 30 questions with five point Likert scales, six point Likert scales and ratio scales. Data were analyzed using univariate analysis, correlation and regression analysis. The finding of the study is that self-monitoring personality of management postgraduate students was positively and strongly correlated with career success. Self-monitoring personality was positively correlated with objective career success of the management postgraduate students within the selected universities in Sri Lanka. Compared to the objective career success, less strong and positive significant relationship exists between self-monitoring personality and subjective career success of the sample. As per the regression analysis, 46 % of the variance in the career success of management postgraduate students has been accounted for by independent variable. It is concluded that self-monitoring personality is one of the major factors which affects career success of the individual and professionals those who have achieved significant career success and are highly self-monitored. en_US, si_LK
