# How to Define Personas
|
||
|
|
||
|
## What is a Persona?
|
||
|
In OpenMetadata, a **persona** represents an organization's specific role or function, such as a **data engineer**, **data steward**, or **data scientist**. Personas define how the user interacts with the platform by tailoring the interface and functionality to their role.
|
||
|
|
||
|
**Example**:
|
||
|
- A **data engineer** might focus on pipelines and data quality.
|
||
|
- A **data steward** is more concerned with governance and glossary management.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Steps to Define a Persona:
|
||
|
|
||
|
1. As an administrator, navigate to **Settings > Team & User Management > Persona settings** in OpenMetadata.

|

|

|
||
|

|
||
|
/%}
|
||
|
|
||
|
2. **Create a new persona** or modify an existing one.
|
||
|
|
||
|

|
||
|
src="/images/v1.6/how-to-guides/admin-guide/persona-3.png"
|
||
|
alt="create a new persona*"
|
||
|
caption="create a new persona*"
|
||
|
/%}
|
||
|
|
||
|
3. **Associate users** with the appropriate persona to customize their experience based on their roles.
