At the crossroads of agency and communion: Defining the shared career
提出“共享职业”这一新概念，指两个或多个职业行动者共同演化的合作与职业机会序列，并构建其生命周期模型，为无边界职业研究开辟新方向。
Abstract This article extends the predominant depiction of careers as individual undertakings and advances insights on collective careers. It defines the shared career as the co‐evolving sequence of work collaboration and jointly pursued career opportunities by two or more career actors. It proposes that this new career construct mixes agency and communion. Furthermore, it conceptualizes a life cycle model of shared careers, using supporting illustrations. Finally, it articulates how focusing on shared careers could open up avenues for the advancement of research on boundaryless careers. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
