Overcoming Imposter Syndrome
This webinar is for individuals who want to understand and address imposter syndrome in order to make confident decisions, take action, and achieve balance, clarity, and purpose in their careers, relationships, and personal lives. It is also for people who wish to raise awareness and offer valuable knowledge and actionable steps for coming to terms with the imposter phenomenon.
The imposter phenomenon occurs when we doubt our abilities, talents, skills, and accomplishments despite evidence of our success. While it occurs in both women and men, it may be more common among those who have a history of marginalization.
Dr. Stoddard, the author of Imposter No More: Overcome Self-Doubt and Imposterism to Cultivate a Successful Career, shares her insights into the imposter experience and offers practical strategies for overcoming self-doubt and imposterism. The webinar provides a platform for understanding imposterism differently, such as the observation that whatever one worries they’re not good at is what they actually care about.
Attendees can expect to gain valuable knowledge and actionable steps for coming to terms with the imposter phenomenon.
