LLAMA webinar helps you overcome imposter syndrome at your workplace

Do you or someone you know, work with, or manage, have a persistent fear of being exposed as a fraud at work? It may be a case of imposter syndrome.  This form of Intellectual self-doubt is a common psychological pattern in which people doubt their accomplishments and have an ongoing, often internalized, fear of being found out.  It can sometimes lead to difficulty excelling in in an area of interest, even with strong professional and personal support.  The good news is there are simple things you can learn to do to tackle impostor syndrome.
