Abstract
This technical note explains how group membership affects who a person thinks she or he is and how that person behaves in organizations. Hofstede's model of levels of identity is introduced and a simple description of Social Identity Theory is laid out. The note is a helpful tool for discussions about group differences because it argues that identification as a group member is not inconsistent with also being a unique individual. It was written for use in a course on interpersonal behavior and can be useful in a range of courses on organizational behavior.
