Finding an Identity Post-Service. The most significant factor that an individual post-service is the individual’s struggle with identity. Having come from a service employment environment, the ability to re-identify in the civilian world impacts all areas of life. Research tells us that the challenge of identity is a shared experience amongst police, military, and emergency services personnel and the resulting issues are rarely unique to any particular individual from these service groups. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ffd2592d5dd2b4002522132/49f41fba-335c-4f3e-8b20-96fbe5bcb69a/Transition%2BSupport%2BBlog_picture1.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ffd2592d5dd2b4002522132/6767cba1-cf3d-4b31-b4e1-fc8ab1689d47/Dr+Kate+Martin++NTR.jpg https://drkatemartin.com.au/recovery daily 0.75 2021-03-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ffd2592d5dd2b4002522132/1615699897303-1R2NMZTYUV7Y510I7O52/volleyball.jpg Step 1 .Recovery https://drkatemartin.com.au/faqs daily 0.75 2021-01-25 https://drkatemartin.com.au/donate daily 0.75 2021-01-14 https://drkatemartin.com.au/dr-kate-martin daily 0.75 2023-04-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ffd2592d5dd2b4002522132/7c6cdf59-cf5f-443d-bb43-f69fe012729a/kate_mountains.jpg https://drkatemartin.com.au/podcasts daily 0.75 2021-01-28 https://drkatemartin.com.au/background daily 0.75 2022-09-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ffd2592d5dd2b4002522132/f5530ce4-f8ee-4340-8eeb-df3301155f3d/Transition%2BSupport%2BBlog_picture1.png BACKGROUND - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://drkatemartin.com.au/our-services daily 0.75 2022-09-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ffd2592d5dd2b4002522132/e364a688-9afe-45a8-8763-990c4f29f1f4/step2.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ffd2592d5dd2b4002522132/7766d393-9af4-4ea3-82df-cb0a72acd7b4/steps-without2-blank.png https://drkatemartin.com.au/identity-work daily 0.75 2022-08-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ffd2592d5dd2b4002522132/1611021220094-S7UR9WZ7IDF8PE0QKNT4/service-environment.jpg IDENTITY WORK The most significant factor that impacts job satisfaction when post-service is the individual’s (now) fixed identity. In the post-service employment environment, this fixed identify dictates their ability to assimilate into the civilian world and to achieve job satisfaction in their new role…. Post-service identity theory stipulates that service organisations such as the police, military and emergency services create an environment of training and routine that creates an identity connection between individuals and the service organisation. The service organisations have a static environment that creates soldiers for the purposes of organisational needs and demand. In turn, the individuals have a fluid experience of change as members of the service that creates identification with the service role, to the exclusion of other identities, particularly their former civilian or non-service identity. Unique to this group, the identity becomes fixed and does not follow the normal patterns of culture adaptation, causing the individuals not to be able to shed their service identity and adopt new ones in the post-service employment environment. The participants narrate their career transition with little to no awareness of the identity connection they have formed with the service organisation. There are two levels of influence here: the service environment that perpetuates the connection and the individual experience that is receptive to the connection. Generally, job satisfaction issues for former service personnel in the post-service environment arise primarily from this identity connection with their service role. If they remain connected to their service role persona and are unwilling or unable to re-create themselves in the civilian world, they can experience poor job satisfaction. https://drkatemartin.com.au/contact daily 0.75 2022-09-01 https://drkatemartin.com.au/skills-recognition daily 0.75 2021-07-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ffd2592d5dd2b4002522132/1625708198543-FF0SAA1JO9YNBQV258AG/CLET_Training_Full_Logo_dark_grey.png Step 2.
