For many, imposter syndrome is simply a natural obstacle in life. It’s a psychological pattern in which individuals doubt their skills or accomplishments and have an internalized fear of being exposed as frauds. Research shows that imposter syndrome impacts 70% of people, most commonly high achievers who find it difficult to accept their accomplishments. It also remains heavily prevalent among business executives and other workplace leaders.
In the workplace, leaders struggling with imposter syndrome must manage this feeling within themselves while staying in tune with their employees’ insecurities.
