Description
In this very special episode of the Impostor Syndrome Files, I interview world-renowned impostor syndrome expert and author of the book, The Secret Thoughts of Successful Women, Valerie Young. Valerie shares with us how impostor syndrome found her during her work as a graduate student in education and how that led her to a powerful mission to stamp out impostor syndrome. She and I explore a range of topics from how impostor syndrome affects men, to the role of organizational culture in fueling impostor syndrome, to what we can learn from those who don’t struggle with this issue.To join the free Impostor Syndrome Challenge, visit:https://yourcareersuccess.com/impostor-syndrome-challenge/To learn more about the Leading Women discussion group, visit:https://yourcareersuccess.com/leading-women-discussion-group/To schedule time to speak with me directly about your questions/challenges, visit:https://yourcareersuccess.com/contact/About My GuestDr. Valerie Young is a leading expert on impostor syndrome and co-founder of Impostor Syndrome Institute.
