A person's job title is a temporary label.
A person's identity is a collection of many parts. A person should not let a job title define who they are.
A job title can feel like a big part of a person's identity. This can cause problems if the job changes or ends. A person should build an identity from many different things. These things can be hobbies, relationships, or personal values. This makes a person's identity stronger and more stable.
A manager loses a job title. The manager feels lost and unsure of who they are. If the manager had other interests, the manager would still have a strong sense of self. The manager's identity would not depend only on the job.
