SEEING THE FOREST FOR THE TREES: EXPLORATORYLEARNING， MOBILE TECHNOLOGY，AND KNOWLEDGEWORKERS’ ROLE INTEGRATION BEHAVIORS;Jean-Nicolas Reyt (jean-nicolas.reyt@mcgill.ca) is an assistant professor of organizational behavior at McGill University’s Desautels Faculty of Management. He received his PhD in management jointly from Paris-Dauphine University and the University of Luxembourg. His research is focused on understanding the relationship between employees’ mental representations of their work and important work outcomes including creativity, exploratory learning, and interpersonal influence. He also studies mobile technology-facilitated work and other organizational factors that influence mental representations. ;Batia M. Wiesenfeld (bwiesenf@stern.nyu.edu) is the Andre J.L. Koo Professor of Management at the Stern School of Business, New York University. She received her PhD from Columbia Business School. Her research interests include justice, identity, construal level, and social regard, particularly in relation to ambiguous and changing organizational contexts such as virtual work, layoffs, failure events, and emergent online communities.;CONTENTS;Role integration is the new workplace reality for many employees. The prevalence of mobile technologies (e.g., laptops, smartphones, tablets) that are increasingly wearable and nearly always “on” makes it difficult to keep role boundaries separate and distinct.We draw upon boundary theory and construal level theory to hypothesize that role integration behaviors shift people from thinking concretely to thinking more abstractly about their work. The results of an archival study of Enron executives’ emails, two experiments, and a multi-wave field study of knowledge workers provide evidence of positive associations between role integration behaviors, higher construal level, and more exploratory learning activities.;Introduction ;Knowledge workers, who are likely to experience these role integration pressuresmost acutely
