Identidad de carrera laboral y empleabilidad en directivos de nivel medio en Chile, Región del Bío Bío

Palabras clave: Carrera laboral, complejidad de identidad de carrera, empleabilidad

Resumen

El presente trabajo aborda la problemática de la construcción de la identidad en el actual contexto de trabajo globalizado, caracterizado por carreras cada vez más cambiantes y altas demandas de empleabilidad. A fin de comprender el proceso de construcción y negociación de la identidad a lo largo de la carrera laboral y su vinculación con la empleabilidad, se analizarón relatos de carrera laboral en una muestra de 25 trabajadores de mediana edad en posiciones directivas intermedias en empresas de la Región del Bío Bío en Chile, a fin de comprender el proceso de construcción y negociación de la identidad a lo largo de la carrera laboral y su vinculación con la empleabilidad. El estudio se inicia con la conceptualización de identidad de carrera laboral basándose en teorías del Yo y de la Psicología Social, y expande su conceptualización hacia la identidad como una práctica narrativa. Se propone que la complejidad de la identidad de carrera, entendida como la existencia de variados referentes de identidad y su integración en un relato rico, que articula experiencias pasadas, presentes y se proyecta al futuro en la forma de sí mismos posibles elaborados, es un antecedente crítico en el desarrollo de la empleabilidad.
