ABSTRACT
Contemporary theory and practices in career development need to account for the intersections of cultural identities (Arthur and Collins 2011; Arthur and McMahon 2005; Leong et al. 2010; Pope 2011). Culture is most often defined by shared clusters of worldview, beliefs and values; rituals, practices, customs, or norms; social, religious, or spiritual traditions; language, history, ties to geographic locations; and/or adherence to social, economic, or political structures (Arthur and Collins 2010). Culture is not a static, essential characteristic of individuals; individuals and groups may hold multiple, complex, and sometimes conflicting cultural identities that shift over time as they navigate diverse social structures and interactions.
