The concept of bringing your "whole self to work" is becoming increasingly popular, but what if you don't feel like that's going to fly in your workplace?
More importantly, what if it doesn't feel safe?
This is a common feeling for so many people, especially those with a collective-dominant background which prioritizes the group over the individual. In this episode, we'll dive into the specific ideological differences between Latinos and the dominant (self-reliant) culture, and why this can lead to a conflict of belief systems and values at work.
In this episode, we dive in to the "shallow end" of the ideological pool and begin to explore why conflicting ideological backgrounds is one of the biggest sources of feeling like we don't belong - especially in professional environments.
By taking responsibility for the way we see the world, we can begin to understand (and embrace) the singular perspectives that guide our personal and professional identities.
Join us as we begin to delve into these ideas and how they have the power to create or destroy belonging.
