A Strategic Way to Manage Imposter Syndrome

I recently hosted a webinar in partnership with the University of Chicago Alumni Career Programs office and the video is now live!

Imposter Syndrome affects professionals at every career stage, from recent graduates to established professionals. In Beat Imposter Syndrome: Strategies for Career Confidence, I go beyond the traditional “fake it till you make it” advice that is commonly shared and instead offer an actionable Career Confidence framework that combines awareness of how imposter syndrome shows up for you, specifically with concrete short-term, long-term, and community-based strategies you can actually implement. 

There is a lot of information packed into this webinar, including:

  • What Imposter Syndrome is (and isn’t)

  • Why it’s so common among smart people (hint: the amazing research skills that helped you excel in college may be undermining your confidence in the workplace)

  • How Imposter Syndrome is negatively impacting your career (and life!)

  • My four-part Career Confidence Framework

  • Imagining what “better” could look like

  • Plus a great question and answer session

Did I mention I created a worksheet to help you get the most out of this webinar? Check it out here:
