Imposter Syndrome – Sources and Solutions – LIMITED PLACES AVAILABLE
Outline: Are you as good as they think you are? This secret fear that we’re not really good enough is surprisingly widespread.  In the face of tangible evidence of their success, many women, some men, people who are genuine high-achievers are often racked by self-doubt and the fear of being found out.
During this workshop “Imposters” will:
•               come to understand how this is affecting their life
•               examine the “rule book” they are living by and choose – if they want – to re write the rules
•               benefit from understanding how men and women put different values on the art of “winging it”
•               see how their interpretation of past success has been making things more difficult
•               notice that being incompetent and feeling incompetent are two totally different things
•               learn practical strategies to set free their Imposter and be themselves!
There can be great benefit in recognising you are not alone and learning new strategies for success in a safe and supportive environment.
