The General Business 365 : Lead Course

Identity shows who the person is. However, an issue will show someone's identity. These days people creates somebody identity by their look, the way people act, the manner people speak. The identity is from family however people aren't able to believe that identity they decide their own manner. Identity comes from teams too. For an example, if you keep in unhealthy people company then your identity are counted as same as them. People can decide you same because of the cluster. Identity comes from society to that is analogous to the cluster. Therefore these days it will depend on upon who you hang around with (groups) and wherever you reside in your identity will come back from that in individual’s opinions. You’ll be able to produce your identity by yourself.

Identity is a group of characteristics, data or information that belongs exactly to one person or a group of people and that make it possible to establish differences between them. The consciousness that people have about themselves is part of their identity as well as what makes them unique. According to psychologists, identity is a consistent definition of one’s self as a unique individual, in terms of role, attitudes, beliefs and aspirations. Identity tries to define who people are, what they are, where they go or what they want to be or to do. Identity could depend on self-knowledge, self-esteem, or the ability of individuals to achieve their goals. Through self-analysis people can define who they are and who the people around them

Identity is the set of behavioral or personal characteristics by which an individual is recognizable as a member of a group. Each people have their own personality, being different and unique from other people. Even though it’s different, each people have some similarity with others that connected them together as a community or a group. However, these groups is not open for all people, some people have to sacrifice their aspects of identity in order to belong to the group that they want to join.

Problems of personal identity generally involve questions about what makes one the person one is and what it takes for the

Beverly Tatum’s argument about the multiple identities and how many people define their self is one of the most notorious articles I've ever read. She's arguing how the areas where a person is a member of the dominant or advantaged social group, the category is usually not mentioned. That element of their identity is so taken for granted by them that it goes without comment. For example she talks about when she asked her students of color to complete the sentence “I am ….” how many of them mention their race, “I am Black, Puerto Rican, and Korean American”. But, when she asked white students to complete the sentence they rarely bring up their race.

     Identity is one of the main questions throughout all of our readings, because it is hard for people to accept who they are in society. Accepting their identity as a minority with little if any freedoms

Identity is defined as the characteristics that distinguish a particular person or group of people from others. Most people do not find their identities, until they have become older and more experienced in life. However, there are a few who discover themselves in a shorter amount of time. During life, humans will face some difficult decisions or situations that will help shape them into the individuals they are today, whether these difficulties be beneficial or harmful in the end. For example, death, guilt, love, anger, misunderstanding and many other emotions can contribute to the process of self-discovery.

The second chapter of the book focuses more on racial identity. The author states that identity is shaped by individual characteristics. The answer to the “Who Am I?” question depends on several factors like how,when, or where you were raised. During a psychology exercise, Tatum asked her students to finish the statement, “I am..” What she noticed was that while some people finished the statement with personality traits, the students that were part of the dominant social group, didn’t mention this about themselves. Tatum states, “That element of their identity is taken for granted by them that it goes without comment.” The parts of a person’s identity that are mentioned are those that other people notice. Black people usually call themselves black because that is what is most likely noticed about them. However, a white person wouldn’t include “white” in their answer to the statement simply because to them, whiteness is the norm. Tatum noticed that white people would often try to make up for this by mentioning a characteristic about themselves that isn’t in the dominant group. For example, a woman might mention that she’s a female, whereas a male wouldn’t mention his gender. The same goes if a man was homosexual; he would most likely mention it while heterosexual men probably wouldn’t mention they’re straight.

The core concept underlying this project is that of identity. An identity is a set of meanings attached to social roles (role identity) (Stryker 2002), group membership (group identity), social category (social identity) (Hogg 2006), and self-perception as an individual (person identity) (Burke and Stets 2009). Meanings are the responses individuals have when they reflect upon themselves in a role, group, or social category, or as an individual (Stets and Serpe 2013). Identities help organize people’s places in interactions, guide their behavior, and facilitate the development of stable social relationships, and make interaction possible (McCall and Simmons 1978).

Modern identity has made a huge impact on todays society. Identity isn’t just how individuals also its part of individuals is in general. Several authors talk about how the modern identity can be a struggle to individuals. There are several struggles that people have to face with their identity, such as stereotypes, prejudices, and labeling.

There are various kinds of identity (individualized or shared) that people are expected to possess. (Hollinger, 2004) namely; personal identity which is known as a

For me personally, identity has always been an important aspect of my life. It is my own Social Penetration Theory in terms of the onion aspect of it – my identity has multiple layers through different stages of my life to date, it is continuously growing by the minute. There are multiple components that make up who I am, and by learning through experiences and this course I am able to get a stronger grip on not only identity as a whole, but also my own identity.

Identity, believe it or not identity can impact me a lot as a software engineer. The fact is that as a software engineer one needs an identity. ‘Am not referring to the type of identity that says

Human beings are extremely universal and different from person to person, but dealing with uncertainties about ourselves is a process the majority of humans have to overcome in our society, this constitutes to a serious risk of developing identity problems. Having identity problems is frequently considered to be one of the biggest fears in our society. But why are we so afraid of it, is it because our society speak ill of people with identity problems or is it because your identity goes against the social standard.

Whenever people encounter the word “identity crisis,” it never fails to arouse feelings of mixed curiosity, mirth and discomfort. Some feel curious, because it is either they have not gone through this stage yet, or because they just have an undeniably excessive level of inquisitiveness and interest. Others feel mirth, for they know that have already
