Abstract
In a period of radical changes of work environment, companies are living continuous transformations and the onset of new challenging issues such as “industry 4.0”, workers ageing and globalization, can lead to a reorientation of organizational behaviour. In this context, researches focused on new psychosocial constructs could be crucial to better understand the complex mechanisms linking work environment, social life and individual reaction to the new obstacles provided by these changes. Intrapreneurial self-capital (ISC) is defined as a set of individual resources used to cope with career and life construction challenges and includes dimensions of core self-evaluation, hardiness, creative self-efficacy, resilience, goal mastery, decisiveness, and vigilance. Focusing on the last five years scientific production on ISC, by means of a commentary review, we present this new construct for the 21th century work hindrance and obstacles, aiming to describe the importance of the intrapreneurial self-capital in this era of changes. Differences and similarities with other constructs and the implications for psychological well-being are considered, along with best practice and methods to apply these evidences.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
