Shared identity in organizational stress and change
The social identity approach has been found very useful for the understanding of a range of phenomena within and across organizations. It has been applied in particular to analyze employees’ stress and well-being at work and their reactions to organizational change. In this paper, we argue that there is a mismatch between the theoretical notion of shared identities in teams and organizations and empirical research, which largely focuses on the individual employee's identification with his or her social categories at work. We briefly review the literature in the two areas of stress and change and conclude with an agenda for future research

The downside of organizational identification: Relations between identification, workaholism and well-being
Employee organizational identification has been proposed and found to be positively related
to employee health and well-being. The empirical evidence, however, is not unequivocal, and
some authors have suggested possible downsides of identification with the organization as a
whole or with a group within it. The potential negative effect of over-identification was tested
empirically for the first time in the present paper. Two studies were conducted; Study 1 was
cross-sectional and used a sample of Italian law court clerks (N195) and Study 2 was
longitudinal and employed a sample of Italian teachers (N140 at T2). We proposed a
curvilinear mediation model with identification curvilinearly predicting workaholism, and
workaholism, in turn, negatively affecting employee well-being. This curvilinear link between
organizational identification and workaholism means that workaholism at first decreases
with growing identification, but when identification becomes too strong, workaholism
increases. The results confirmed our hypotheses, and we discuss theoretical and practical
implication

School teachers' well-being and job satisfaction: an analysis across countries and levels of explanation
Book synopsis: Teachers often feel that they have to mount enormous hills in their daily work. Teaching can be demanding, distressing and even painful, but it can also be very rewarding, just as the climber who reaches the top can feel intrinsically satisfied. These facets and consequences of teachers' work are apparent in the studies presented in this book.
Some studies report that teachers experience a diversity of stresses, while others find that teachers in general report work satisfaction and only moderate levels of work-related stress. There are various reasons as to why this might be, and this book's objective is to explore some of these and their effects on teachers' working lives. Another objective is to explore what schools as organisations do (or can do) to facilitate teachers' professional development and well-being.
The book gives a European perspective on issues relating to teachers' professional development and well-being in an age of reform-pressure and deregulation common to schools in most European countries
