Practice question · Multiple choice
A first-year consultant starts using the firm’s jargon, wearing its unofficial uniform, and judging her own slides by "what the partners would say." Which concept fits best?
Hints
- Whose judgment has she internalized?
- No one strips her identity, she absorbs a role.
Show the answer
C. Professional socialization
Why
She has internalized the firm as her generalized other: an invisible partner audits every slide. That is ordinary professional socialization, powerful, voluntary, and mostly unnoticed by the person it rebuilds.
