ESTHER, Angelo Brigato; SILVA, Faviane Teixeira da  e  MELO, Beatriz Assis. The managerial identity of heads of departments of federal universities in Minas Gerais. Gerais, Rev. Interinst. Psicol. [online]. 2010, vol.3, n.2, pp. 213-222. ISSN 1983-8220.

Currently, the issue of identity emerges as a central concept in the studies regarding the singularities of individuals at work. Although the conceptual conceptions are different, they refer to the representations that individuals elaborate about themselves and others, being constructed in relation with the other, as a result of several socialization processes. Therefore, the organizations may be considered a privileged space of construction of identities. The research aims at comprehending how the heads of departments build their identities at work. Heads of academic departments of two federal universities in Minas Gerais were interview, and their depositions were analyzed by means of thematic analysis. The depositions indicate the configuration of a multifaceted identity, once the environment in which they work confers upon them and requires a specific performance, with a term, variable targets, and a decision-making process mixed with interests and power relations which are not always clear.
