Review

"The leading identity scholars who have contributed to this impressive volume provide cutting edge insights that extend across disciplines and levels of analysis. This anthology of original articles is required reading and an invaluable resource for those interested in the rich and multi-faceted construct of identity. It is a major step forward for the blossoming field of positive organizational scholarship." - Jeffrey T. Polzer, Harvard Business School

"By focusing on the positive dimensions of the content, process and outcome of identity, the authors show the ability of people and organizations to find a way forward towards something better. This book convinces the reader that positive change is possible also in situations of deep trouble and harshness and provides a compelling invitation to engage in the further development of positive identity in theory and practice." - Majken Schultz, Copenhagen Business School

"Exploring Positive Identities and Organizations breaks new theoretical ground at a time when concerns about identity are at their pinnacle. Roberts and Dutton bring together the most exciting thinking in this burgeoning area, providing a theory-driven roadmap of identity research's 'hot spots.' This volume will undoubtedly guide the next generation of identity research." - Herminia Ibarra, The Cora Chaired Professor of Leadership & Learning Director, INSEAD Leadership Initiative
