Recognizing & Resisting Imposter Syndrome: A Discussion Series

$450.00

Learn how imposter syndrome operates and gain strategies to resist it, so that you can spend less time in self-doubt and more time achieving your best work.

Overview

The competitiveness, individualism, and emphasis on expertise in higher education creates an environment ripe for imposter syndrome, where people across roles and responsibilities feel as if they are not “enough” or ever “doing enough.” In this discussion series, you will learn how imposter syndrome operates, both institutionally and psychologically, to keep you from contributing your best self to the world.

Using insights from recent research on imposter syndrome and focused reflection questions, our leadership coach, Jennifer Askey, will help you see through your own imposter syndrome and identify strategies for managing it in your day-to-day life. Each discussion in the series will feature research and/or a unique case study to guide the conversation. You can join all three discussions or attend only one, as preferred.

Who Should Attend
