Title: Pathways for Positive Identity Construction at Work: Four Types of Positive Identity and the Building of Social Resources
Authors: Jane E. Dutton, Laura Morgan Roberts, Jeffrey Bednar
Abstract: In this paper, we organize research on work-related identities into a four-perspective typology that captures different ways that identities can be “positive”. Each perspective on positive identity - virtue, evaluative, developmental and structural – highlights a different source of positivity and opens new avenues for theorizing about identity construction. We use these four perspectives to develop propositions about how different forms of positive work-related identity construction can strengthen employees through building social resources.
