Broken Mirror – The impostor inside us all
According to research published by the Economic and Social Research Council and Cardiff University , 70% of people suffer from Impostor Syndrome at some point in their career (the fear that we are not competent or worthy of the job or responsibilities we hold). Is this often debilitating condition natural and how should we respond to these feelings, especially if we have responsibilities to others and find ourselves caught in a fear bubble?
Whilst this is a serious problem for executives, we think that there are a variety of choices and options available to manage this very natural phenomenon more effectively. In this article we will explore the topic more broadly to look at the true costs associated with the issue and what we might choose to do about it.
