Just be yourself, right?
We're complex people. Professionally, we're recent graduates, employees, star performers, and first-time managers. But we're also best friends, devoted family members, sports fans, plant parents, social justice warriors—or any other combination of these and other traits. But how much of ourselves should we really bring to the workplace?
Authenticity, Identity, and Being Yourself at Work is filled with practical advice from HBR experts that can help you answer this and other questions like: What does authenticity really mean at work? What values do I want to live into? How do I take control of my professional identity? How should I disclose personal information without oversharing? In what ways can I overcome feelings of impostor syndrome? When should I conform to my company's culture—and when should I stand out?
This book will help you figure out how much of "you" to bring to work so that you feel more comfortable and confident—and ensure you're presenting yourself as you want to be seen.
