Working Identity, Updated Edition revisits the premise that career change succeeds through experimentation rather than a single leap of insight. Act Like a Leader, Think Like a Leader, Updated Edition of the global bestseller, translates that identity work into everyday leadership practice, showing professionals how to redefine their roles, expand their networks, and grow into leaders. Together, these hardback titles form a practical, research-backed toolkit for career pivots and bigger leadership roles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Books\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWorking Identity, Updated Edition, With a New Preface argues that career reinvention rarely happens through quiet reflection alone. Herminia Ibarra shows that people discover new professional identities by acting first: testing unfamiliar roles, seeking small projects, and building relationships outside their usual circles, then gradually integrating what feels authentic. This updated hardback edition folds in new examples relevant to remote work and today's uncertain job market, while keeping the original research intact. Act Like a Leader, Think Like a Leader, Updated Edition of the global bestseller, applies similar logic to leadership. Ibarra argues that leaders are made through outward-facing action: redefining the job, building a broader and more diverse network, and trying on new ways of leading before feeling fully ready. Both books draw on Ibarra's academic research and years of work with executives, translating theory into concrete exercises and case studies. Read together in this hardback set, the two titles trace one throughline: meaningful change comes from experimenting your way into a new identity, not thinking your way into one. The collection suits mid-career professionals, first-time managers, and executives seeking a research-grounded framework for reinvention and leadership growth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePairs Ibarra's two most influential titles in one durable hardback set\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorking Identity offers an action-first framework for navigating a career pivot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAct Like a Leader, Think Like a Leader delivers a playbook for bigger leadership roles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBacked by rigorous academic research from a leading professor of leadership\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes reflection exercises and case studies that turn theory into daily habits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA thoughtful gift for graduates, new managers, or career changers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook-by-Book Guide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWorking Identity — Herminia Ibarra makes the case that career reinvention happens through action and experimentation, not solitary self-analysis.\u003cbr\u003eAct Like a Leader, Think Like a Leader — Ibarra's updated edition of the global bestseller shows how redefining your job, network, and self-narrative builds real leadership capacity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHerminia Ibarra is the Cora Chaired Professor of Leadership and Learning at INSEAD and one of the world's foremost experts on leadership and career transitions.
