Working Identity reframes career change as an active, experimental process rather than a single decisive choice. Instead of waiting for certainty, the author shows how professionals discover new directions by trying new activities and reworking their networks.

The book outlines three practical moves: take on small role-based experiments, connect with fresh peers and mentors, and continually reinterpret experiences to form a coherent new identity.

Practical takeaways

  • Design short experiments to sample alternative roles
  • Create small wins to sustain momentum
  • Seek role models and expand professional circles
  • Weave new experiences into a believable career narrative

Based on research with managers and professionals, the book offers concrete steps for anyone plotting a career shift and looking for a structured, actionable path forward.
