The way large numbers of people in the developed economies sell their time, skills and efforts in the 21st Century world of paid work is damaging to their health, well-being and relationships. They are required to commit more to the organisations they work for, who then subject them to an intensification of the expectations related to their performance claims Peter Kelly. In The Self as Enterprise, he analyses the various injunctions and incitements to develop new work ethics reflecting the way people practice their freedom in relation to the world of paid work. This is an important contribution to the debate about the nature of work related identities and the consequences of the intensification of the work regimes in which these identities are regulated and displayed. For anyone interested in how all aspects of workers' lives are now seen as performance related and consequently of interest to their employers.
Peter Kelly grew up in Newport News Virginia, the son of Robert and Peggy Kelly. He recently returned home to Newport News for an early retirement and to be closer to his family. Peter graduated from Ferguson High School in 1976. After training at the Oberlin Conservatory as a classical musician and pursuing a degree in Mathematics at Oberlin College, Peter won an audition with the ARS Musica Baroque Orchestra of Ann Arbor Michigan in 1980. This launched a career that allowed him to help establish the Lyra Baroque Orchestra after moving to the Twin Cities in 1985. He was the principal baroque oboist with the Lyra Baroque Orchestra for six years. At the same time Peter followed his passion for mathematics and computers by developing a career in programming computers, managing teams of software developers and most recently as a Senior Systems Business Analyst.
