I appreciated that the authors acknowledged that people might have multiple facets to their identities (i.e. being Korean American) that are central to a person\u2019s identity depending on the circumstance. Furthermore, I was particularly interested by the idea of \u201cintergroup boundaries\u201d presented by the authors; specifically, the example of the differences in table manners among Brits and Americans. While the two nations share the \u201cingroup\u201d quality of speaking the same language (despite dialectical differences), there is an intergroup boundary of food and drink. When traveling to any country, it is important to familiarize oneself with the cultural knowledge of a habit such as eating practices. A \u201cbilingual eater\u201d would speak both eating \u201clanguages\u201d of Britain and the United States, and these differences are important to understanding group dynamics of a particular culture. Furthermore, when traveling to another nation, it is important to think about how you might be labeled due to your national origin, as a categorization threat could occur.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Reading \u201cIngroups and Outgroups\u201d for a second time (I did so before in Leadership and the Social Sciences\u201d gave me a reminder of the importance of calling out stereotypes and being conscientious of them on a global level. After learning about leadership concepts specifically correlated to the humanities, I had a different reaction to the article; learning how literature\/art, oratory, and history impact leadership, the concept of ingroups\/outgroups are largely applicable to several contexts.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In Howard and Jane Giles\u2019 \u201cIngroups and Outgroups\u201d chapter, I found the concepts highly applicable to studying leader\/follower dynamics on small and large scales.
