O Self que (não) fala: um modelo baseado em identidades sobre voz e silêncio de empregados
Conteúdo do artigo principal
Resumo
A literatura sobre voz e silêncio de empregados tem apresentado tais comportamentos como motivados por propósitos calculativos-instrumentais (o que eu ganharei/perderei se eu falar?). Eu defendo que voz e silêncio são comportamentos sociofuncionais inseridos em interações do cotidiano no trabalho e me fundamento na teoria da identidade social para propor um modelo baseado em identidades sobre a voz e silêncio de empregados (como falar afeta minha definição de quem sou?). O modelo apresentado explica como indivíduos podem falar ou se manter em silêncio ao preservar ou reestruturar seu senso de self diante de ameaças a identidades. Eu também exploro as condições para cada comportamento de voz baseado em identidades e apresento contribuições para as literaturas sobre voz e silêncio nos campos do Comportamento Organizacional e das Relações Industriais.
