This study assessed the moderating role of self-actualization on the influence of career development on employee promotion with relevant confounding variables adjusted for. This study was a quantitative research that adopted the cross-sectional survey method. Its population was employees of selected bank branches in Accra, and the simple random sampling method was used to select participants. A self-reported questionnaire was used to gather data from participants. Pearson’s correlation test, descriptive statistics, and structural equation modelling were used to present the results through SPSS version 22 and its Amos in-built function. After controlling for key job attributes, career development makes a positive influence on employee promotion, whereas self-actualization makes a positive influence on employee promotion and career development. Self-actualization positively moderated the positive influence of career development on employee promotion after adjusting for the said job characteristics. It is concluded that self-actualization is a skill that facilitates the impact of career development on employee promotion. The study recommends that banks and other organizations regularly improve the self-actualization of their employees through training.
