She is a Professor of Organizational Behavior at INSEAD, an international business school located in France, and she was a faculty member of the Harvard Business School for 13 years.

Key Insights from Working Identity

  • Ibarra emphasizes the importance of experimentation in career development, suggesting that individuals should actively explore new roles and identities rather than solely relying on self-reflection. This approach allows for a more dynamic understanding of one's professional identity, fostering growth through real-world experiences.
  • The book highlights that identity is not a fixed trait but rather an evolving construct shaped by social interactions and professional environments. Ibarra advocates for engaging with new networks and communities to redefine one's identity and unlock new opportunities.
  • Ibarra challenges traditional career planning models that focus on strict objectives and linear paths, arguing instead for a more flexible and adaptive strategy. This strategy encourages professionals to embrace uncertainty and view their career journeys as ongoing processes of evolution rather than predetermined outcomes.
