Live To Work Or Work To Live Impact of career identity on career development across Dutch and Chinese teachers Dr. Huadong Yang Dr. Piety Runhaar Emmy Soer Yishu Wang Organisational Psychology and HRD University of Twente

Career is a path to develop my professional skills. Career is just like climbing a ladder. I need a decent life, so I need a career. I need a decent life, so I need a career.

Career is the evolving sequence of a person’s work experiences over time. (Arthur, Hall & Lawrence, 1989) Defining career

Career development Different models of career development Life-span models Super’s model (1959); Career shifts and transitions during a life span. Individual differences Career anchors (Schein, 1978): Technical-functional; Managerial; Security & stability; Creativity; Autonomy & independence. Career patterns Kanter (1989) : Professional; Bureaucratic; Entrepreneurial

Two types of development  Horizontal development: (Task-oriented) Do a better job; Achievement by excellent work.  Vertical development: (Process-oriented) Gain more responsibilities; authority and status; Getting to the to top; higher salary. Career development in our study

Influence of career identity on career development In career development, most individuals inject their own identity into the situation by “being themselves”…and by taking on roles in which they can express their identity. (Arthur, Hall & Lawrence, 1989)

Career identity How central one’s career is to one’s identity. (London, 1983) Work centrality The desire of upward mobility Job involvement Professional orientation Commitment to work Identification with organization Advancement Recognition Dominance Money

Work centrality Task-oriented development The desire of upward mobility process-oriented development

The function of self-construal Individual’s sense of self in relation to others (Markus & Kitayama; 1991; Hardin, 2006)  Independent self-construal Unique and autonomous entity; Independent from others ; Express self.  Interdependent self-construal Is defined through relationships with others; Connected with social context; Occupy one’s proper place.

Work involvement Task-related Career development Independent self-construal Upward mobility process-related Career development Interdependent self-construal

Method Participants 72 teachers and 10 school leaders from 10 schools in the Netherlands. Teachers: M age = 40 (23 to 61); 80% female; 64 HBO and above Instruments: Career development (leaders) 6 items for the “task-related” career development (α =.85). “This teacher likes to participate in activities which can improve his/her teaching skills”. 5 items for the “process-related” career development (α =.87). “This teacher shows great enthusiasm for the activities which can lead to a promotion”.

Career identity Work centrality (5 items; α =.68): “My work as a teacher is an important part of my life” Desire of upward mobility (6 items; α =.69): “Getting a promotion is a strong motivation for me to work hard.” Self-construal Independent self-construal (9 items; α =.72): “I prefer to do my own things.” Interdependent self-construal (7 items; α =.70). “Having harmonious relationships with colleagues is my path to success” Method

Work Attitudes We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give. WINSTON CHURCHILL WINSTON CHURCHILL I'm a great believer in luck and I find that the harder I work, the more I have of it. THOMAS JEFFERSON. THOMAS JEFFERSON My father taught me to work; he did not teach me to love it. ABRAHAM LINCOLN ABRAHAM LINCOLN

Work to live (A story on Internet) When I was a kid, I would ask my mom why she and my father had to work. She would always tell me that they had to, so we could have the money to buy food, to pay for the bills, to pay for our schooling… To be successful means that you have to sacrifice some things, and sometimes you end up sacrificing your family, your friends, your life; you achieve your professional goals, but you lose yourself. Then, you wonder if the loss is worth the gain?
