Imposter Syndrome

Imposter Syndrome Training: Why You Need it

Imposter Syndrome is a popular area of academic research, particularly relating to the development of female leaders. Imposter Syndrome is a term used to describe an individual who believes they don’t deserve their success and are not as good as others. They are unable to internalise their accomplishments and feel they are a fraud and that at some point soon they will be found out.

Inclusive Employer’s Imposter Syndrome training is designed to unlock some of the reasons why women, and some minority people, are not progressing into leadership roles.
