Is imposter syndrome holding you back from achieving your true potential? Are you avoiding putting yourself forward for opportunities? Do you compare yourself to others and find yourself falling short?
On the 13th April, Network Ireland Wicklow will host an evening dedicated to combatting imposter syndrome. The keynote speaker on the night will be Happiness at Work expert Aoife O’Brien.
Speaking about the session, Aoife explained: “Up to 70% of people experience imposter syndrome at some stage in their career. It impacts both men and women, but we deal with it in very different ways. It can impact our career progression, how much we earn, whether we remain in an organisation.
“During this interactive presentation, I’ll explain what imposter syndrome is, how it shows up, who gets it, and what steps we can take to manage and overcome it.”
This event is not the only one being hosted by Network Ireland Wicklow in the month of April.
All details for these events and registration forms can be found on Eventbrite.com under Network Ireland Wicklow.
