Professional identity---
What is professional identity?
Professional identity is defined as one's professional self-concept based on attributes, beliefs, values, motives, and experiences (Ibarra, 1999; Schein, 1978)
How to build professional identity?
Building a professional identity often involves a mix of education, professional training and personality. People earn degrees and professional certifications to demonstrate knowledge, credibility and expertise in a given profession. Personality and professional etiquette create distinction among the people in a profession who have similar backgrounds.
