WEST’s Conquer Imposter Syndrome to Advance Your Career
July 20, 2021 @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm
- Do you hesitate to speak up because you worry that you’ll sound foolish?
- Do you question whether you have what it takes to successfully perform your role?
- Do you worry that the people around you are so much better qualified than you are?
If so, you likely struggle with Impostor Syndrome, a term for the feelings of self-doubt and inadequacy many professionals face, particularly as we advance our careers. In this session, you’ll learn common triggers of Impostor Syndrome, including feeling different from the dominant culture around you. This is why Impostor Syndrome is so pervasive among women in traditionally male-dominated fields. You’ll also learn strategies to build your confidence and manage these disruptive feelings so that you can effectively achieve your professional goals.
