| dc.description.abstract | The paper explores the tend and differential movement of the managers from the processes of social identity to the emergence of work identity in Indian organizations. The focus of the Social Identity is maintenance of relationship matrix while the focus of Work Identity is the tasks and goals of the organization. The convergence toward the rubric of social identity or work identity is determined by four role coordinates and their role orientations viz., (A) Responsibility, (B) Authority, (C) Equality and (D) Identity - as expressed through five role acts viz., (1) Decision Making (2) Exercise of Authority (3) Communication (4) Evaluation and (5) Reward and Punishment. The existence of four role coordinates and five role acts can be constituted in a matrix of role coordinates and role acts, and which give rise to patterns of managerial behaviour and interaction in Indian organizations. | en |
