Book Professional Identity Crisis

Download or read book Professional Identity Crisis written by Carrie Yang Costello and published by Vanderbilt University Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fact that women and people of color tend to underperform at professional schools is a source of controversy. Conservatives blame affirmative action, while liberals blame intentional discrimination. The extensive research reported in Professional Identity Crisis belies both conspiracy theories. The author spent over 400 hours observing how first-year students are socialized in two very different environments, Boalt School of Law and the School of Social Welfare at UC Berkeley, watching how they adapted to different expectations of how to speak, dress, and behave in the classroom. Costello found that students who were female, of color, disabled, or poor were not underqualified compared with their privileged peers. Nor did the research uncover intentional bigotry. Instead, the disproportionate success of white men can be explained by the fact that they are more likely to acquire appropriate professional identities swiftly, with little inner conflict. Students from less privileged backgrounds, however, suffered from "identity dissonance." For example, Jasmine, a Filipino student from Los Angeles, explained, "In the legal culture you have to adopt a different way of being, a different vocabulary and way to carry yourself . . . That's how I got this far. And when I go home, if I act the way I do here, they won't get it. My cousins and my friends say, 'You're kind of whitewashed.' And when I come back here I have to get back my law style."

Book Professionals Reacting to Identity Crisis

Download or read book Professionals Reacting to Identity Crisis written by Andrea Tomo and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The paper explores previously overlooked relationships between identity features (struggles and their antecedents and consequences) to understand identity across different professions and practices as a process of reaction and counter-reaction to identity threats and struggles.By adopting an integrated view of professional identity, the paper employs a systematic literature review on professional identity, paying particular attention to the micro-politics and identity dynamics to explore and put in relationship identity features.In doing so, the paper systematizes previous literature and offers a conceptual model for understanding professional identity formation as an iterative interaction of identity struggles, threats and coping behaviours. The paper provides theoretical and practical insights into precarious identities and the continuous refinements and work by professionals to deal with uncertainties, deepening the complex dynamics and interactions involving threats, struggles and coping behaviours affecting professional identity at macro, meso and micro levels and across professions.

  • Author : J. Potter
  • Publisher : Springer
  • Release : 2015-06-09
  • ISBN : 1137305436
  • Pages : 305 pages

Download or read book Crisis at Work written by J. Potter and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-06-09 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores how we make sense of ourselves when work is precarious and intrinsically alienating. We know little about how this experience of work impacts the lives of men and women, and less about the way individuals understand themselves in the face of institutions and organizations from which they feel marginalized. Based on the narratives of men and women who underwent extraordinary work life changes, Crisis at Work examines how we negotiate greater meaning and fulfilment when our productive lives fail to sustain and satisfy. Reflecting a growing fracture between what we value, believe in, and are committed to and the degree to which work and career have become incapable of assuaging those desires, Potter examines how individuals attempt to assemble working-lives they find rich and rewarding and how that work is negotiated within the constraints and possibilities of the contemporary moment.
