معنی
To adjust to a new environment.
زمینه فرهنگی
Finns value 'työrauha' (work peace). When someone is 'hakemassa paikkaansa', colleagues usually give them space to observe before expecting them to lead meetings. Flat hierarchies mean that 'finding your place' often involves finding how you can contribute practically, rather than just finding your rank. In Finnish social life, entering a pre-existing group of friends can be slow. The phrase is often used to describe this slow integration. Finnish schools emphasize independent role-finding. Students are encouraged to find their own 'place' in projects.
