Why It’s An Essential Topic To Understand
For Change Professionals
Impostor Syndrome (also known as Impostor Phenomenon) refers to people underestimating their capability and feeling like a fraud or not competent enough in a particular environment.
You may not realise you are experiencing it; you may believe that you are the only one feeling the way you do and that not feeling good enough is just something you have to live with. But impostor feelings are common and, when experienced intensely, can lead to detrimental personal and professional outcomes.
Recent research into Impostor Syndrome in management consultants has sought to understand more about the impacts, triggers, coping strategies and how organisations can help their people.
Organisations can exacerbate or mitigate the experience of Impostor Syndrome. By creating a supportive and open environment, organisations can help disrupt the internal negative thought processes of Impostor Syndrome, enabling individuals and their organisations to flourish.
This webinar is a conversation between Helen Brooks of Brooks Coaching, who conducted the research, and Deborah Feakins from Marlowe Consulting who brings her reflections from her years of experience working with senior organisational leaders who lead and deliver transformation programmes of all sizes and complexity.
In this webinar, Helen & Deborah will share the research findings to help raise awareness of the concept and its impacts. Theye discuss practical interventions at the levels of individual engagement, organisational culture and wider organisational support.
While the research focussed on management consultants, the research findings are relevant for those in a variety of professional, internal consulting and delivery-based settings.
Through the webinar individuals will learn about the concept and impacts at a personal level and also how they can better lead and support their teams and clients.
Key takeaways from the session will be:
- Awareness of Impostor Syndrome and its impacts.
- Understanding your role in managing impacts on yourself and those around you
- Understanding of the role of the organisation in supporting people.
- Considerations for project professionals on engaging with organisational leaders responsible for delivering change
- Considerations for organisational leaders of change.
