Although identity is never static, developing it is a crucial step in a young person’s life. The development of an identity that corresponds to your goals and ideals can be distorted by the asynchronous development that we often see in gifted people. The positive traits, such as being analytical, can quickly turn into an overly critical mindset, hindering development and leading to a reassessment of where they stand in a group, in society or in relation to an ideal self."In this Giftedness peer-to-peer meeting, we will discuss what identity is, some of the main models of identity formation, and what can happen when this process is distorted. Together, we’ll discuss ways in which giftedness influences this process, how this has affected personal development, where we stand now and how we can use this information to move forward."📅 Tuesday 11 June⏰15:30 - 17:00📍 TAP11 C-1.019A📲 Sign up: https://lnkd.in/eBnpNx8M#UMCareerServices #maastrichtuniversity #giftedness #peertopeer #personaldevelopment #professionaldevelopment
