Abstract

Abstract only Supporting employee growth is increasingly critical for organizations in the new world of work. Employees who experience growth are not only less likely to leave, but are also more likely to perform at their best (DeCarbo, 2023). Yet, a fragmented literature on growth at work limits our understanding of how employee growth is achieved and its impact on employees and organizations. This symposium brings together outstanding junior and senior academics who will present novel research insights on employee growth. Specifically, the set of papers included in the symposium explore how employees achieve growth from a number of perspectives, considering the mindsets, behaviors, and sensemaking that positively contribute to growth. Moreover, these papers, and the planned discussion, explore how each of these perspectives may learn and contribute to each other to form a more coherent perspective on growth and how it is achieved in organizations.
