Abstract
‘Identities’ (organizational managerial, professional and occupational) are currently a key focus for research in management and organization studies ( [Alvesson et al., 2008], [Brown, 2001] and [Ybema et al., 2009]). While the rise to prominence of identity has many antecedents, it has in part been associated with the metaphor of ‘liquid modernity’, which seeks to capture contemporary trends: in particular the fluidity, unpredictability and flexibility of a more transient and porous world ( [Bauman, 2000] and [Clegg and Baumeler, 2010]). Today, organizations mutate more rapidly, commitment and loyalty are less evident and identities are less secure, more open and increasingly differentiated. That is, researchers have turned to identity as identities, and the contexts in which they are formed, have become more interesting.
