摘要

目的:本论文探讨了个人在经历有意义的工作时是否会变得以自我为中心，从而对周围的人产生负面影响。它还讨论了如何减轻有意义的工作带来的负面影响。设计/方法/方法对印度航空制造业的主管、同事、下属和24名高管的家庭进行了半结构化访谈，这些高管在作者于2019年初进行的另一项实证研究中在有意义的工作量表上得分很高。那些经历过有意义的工作的人有时会变得以自我为中心，除了工作之外没有什么能吸引他们。这对他们的工作和家庭关系产生了负面影响。原创性/价值本文通过使用印度样本探索其对培养自我中心主义的影响，为有意义工作的阴暗面提供了稀缺的文献。

Could self-centrism rust the glitter of meaningful work? Exploring the darker sides of the construct

Purpose The paper explores if individuals experiencing deeply meaningful work turn self-centric and therein they negatively affect people around them. It also discusses ways to attenuate this darker effect of meaningful work. Design/methodology/approach Semi-structured interviews were conducted with supervisors, peers, subordinates, and family of 24 executives in the Indian Aeronautical Manufacturing Sector who scored high on the Meaningful Work scale in another empirical study carried out by the authors in early 2019. Findings Individuals experiencing deeply Meaningful Work get self-centric, at times, where nothing beyond work appeals to them. This negatively affects their camaraderie at work and family ties. Originality/value The paper adds to the scarce literature on the darker side of Meaningful Work by exploring its effect on breeding self-centrism using an Indian sample.

期刊介绍： Development and Learning in Organizations: An International Journal is a unique management information resource for today"s busy managers who are seeking to develop their organization in the right direction. Case studies on leading companies and viewpoints from some of the best thinkers in the area of organizational development and learning combine to make this journal a very welcome addition to the management literature. In addition, as part of our special service, we scour through the mass of academic and non-academic literature to ensure that we keep up to date with the best and newest ideas. We then distil this information for our readers and present the most meaningful implications for managers in easy-to-digest reviews and commentaries.
