From the Paper:

"One of the primary tasks of individuals in modern society is to provide support for those in need and for those that possess intelligence and a strong desire to advance their own careers. It is anticipated that in the process of career development, many individuals from disadvantaged environments will not be able to experience the benefits of career support programs that are offered by many organizations. Therefore, these individuals will become increasingly dependent upon low-paying jobs and even the welfare system as a means of survival. Many programs are offered by a number of organizations that provide assistance to individuals in order to avoid these circumstances altogether. The following discussion will identify the primary objectives and considerations regarding a proposed organizational perspective and its relationship to a general sociological perspective."
