Online Mastermind: Understanding and Overcoming Impostor Syndrome

Join Jessica Schubert (Intact Teams) at this interactive online Mastermind to conquer impostor syndrome. This safe space is an opportunity to develop a deeper understanding of the limiting thoughts that hold back 70% of the population. Psychologists Dr. Pauline Clance and Suzanne Imes found that Impostor Syndrome is pronounced with high achievers, so it is important for all managers, leaders and team players to understand the ways to overcome this syndrome and provide work cultures that are supportive for those challenged by this..

Impostor Syndrome is a psychological phenomenon that manifests as a persistent internalised fear of being exposed as a "fraud," despite evident success or accomplishments. It often leads individuals to doubt their abilities and achievements, attributing them to luck, timing, or deception rather than their own skills or efforts. This pervasive sense of self-doubt can have profound impacts, not only on individuals but also on organisations and businesses. It can hinder productivity, stifle creativity, and create a toxic work environment, ultimately affecting the overall health and success of an organisation.

We will explore our shared examples of impostor thoughts and understand how these thoughts become barriers to the full realisation of personal power, leadership development and growth.

Everyone is welcome to join us for this interactive online session and experience first hand how to debunk the impostor syndrome with practical steps to implement personally and collectively.

Takeaways:

Learn what the Impostor Syndrome is and debunk this phenomenon
Create awareness about impostor thoughts and empathetic insights into how it can impact on behaviour
Develop self-understanding of our own thoughts and judgements
Adopt practical steps and strategies to overcome the Impostor Syndrome
How to build psychologically safe work cultures that assist those challenged by impostor thoughts.

Even the most high profile, successful people acknowledge this challenge:

‘I still have a little impostor syndrome…it doesn’t go away, that feeling that you shouldn’t take me that seriously. What do I know? I share that with you because we all have doubts in our abilities, about our power or what that power is.’ – Michelle Obama

Don't miss this interactive Mastermind where we will encourage you to share, learn and practice. This is an opportunity to connect, discover more about each other and contribute to a powerful conversation supporting all women to become the best versions of themselves.
