If you are experiencing feelings of inadequacy and self-doubt, you’ll be surprised that Imposter Syndrome is typically associated with high achievers. Some 70% of people experience this at some time in their lives. As we become more specialised in a particular subject, we become more aware we become of the gaps in our knowledge which can bring on feelings of being “not quite good enough.”.
The course examines the Imposter Syndrome, where it stems from and offers tips and techniques and strategies to overcome it. Through these you will be able to confirm and acknowledge your capabilities.
