Presented by: Dr. Valerie Young

Description: Do you often dismiss your accomplishments luck or timing? Do you think, "If I can do it, anyone can"? When you do succeed do you think, "Whew, fooled them again"? It's called the impostor syndrome.

You will leave this session understanding what the impostor syndrome is and how it works, the reasons bright people feel like frauds, what makes women more prone to self-doubt, and strategies you can use to help yourself, your students, or your employees to unlearn this self-limiting phenomenon.
