Do You Feel Like An Imposter?
- Have you ever felt like you’re merely pretending at your skills, expertise, or talents?
- Do you worry that others will “unmask” you as a fraud?
- Have you questioned whether your success is truly earned, regardless of evidence to the contrary?
All leaders, business owners, and entrepreneurs have encountered challenges, setbacks, and moments of doubt throughout their careers. It’s a natural part of the business journey. At times, these routine obstacles can shake your confidence and create self-doubt – a feeling that’s not uncommon.
If feelings of unworthiness, self-blame, and negativity persist, you might be experiencing something more profound – impostor syndrome. Impostor syndrome doesn’t discriminate; it affects individuals from all walks of life and at every level of success. This constant self-questioning can erode your confidence, limit opportunities, and leave you drained.
Such doubts can have a profound impact on:
- your business performance and effectiveness
- prevent you from reaching your true potential and
- can even hold you back from personal milestones beyond the workplace.
Research Evidence
Research conducted by Pauline R. Clance and Suzanne A. Imes indicates as many as 70% of us will experience imposter syndrome at some stage in our lifetime.
According to KPMG’s Advancing the Future of Women in Business Summit Report, Impostor Syndrome is one of the most prevalent yet least discussed challenges professionals face today.
KPMG’s research has shown that:
- 75% of surveyed women leaders across industries have experienced Impostor Syndrome in their careers;
- 85% of women hesitate to share their struggles at work due to the fear of being perceived as weak and
- less than 5% of employers actively address Imposter Syndrome within their teams.
Other research has also shown that Imposter Syndrome costs organizations approximately $3,400 on lost productivity per employee each year.
