Abstract

Purpose: The notion of professionalism is polysemic in nature. In this paper we aim at analysing the development of this notion and identify its components. The paper examines the process that lead to the development of professionalism based on the interaction between the actors and the organization. These social interactions, grounded in an organizational environment, reveal the tensions that such interactions expose. Design/methodology/approach: This paper draws on qualitative methodology using semi-directive interviews and provide an example of application. Findings: In this paper we focus on how professionalism can be developed, generating acts, implementing actions, and using resources. Research limitations/implications: This paper presents one example in a specific field and should be put in perspective with others examples and fields
