Organizational diversity and inclusion programs encourage employees to bring their authentic selves to work; however, some employees find it difficult to bring their authentic selves to work. Social identity is the value one places on membership in a certain group. This study investigated whether group (e.g., Mexican compared to Puerto Rican) differences existed among Latinx professionals, regarding their preferences for playing up or playing down their social identity when interacting with coworkers. This study found differences between groups based on preferences for playing up or playing down social identity; racial centrality; and gender.
