From the successful student who thinks her acceptance into a graduate program was an administrative error to the senior manager who thinks she doesn't actually have the qualifications required for the job, many successful women feel as if all their successes are coincidences or the result of a mistake and are unable to fully embrace them.
This condition, called imposter syndrome, is not unique to women, but women struggle with it more. This condition manifests itself in tendencies such as dwelling on the smallest mistakes, viewing even constructive criticism as evidence of inadequacy, and attributing success to luck rather than skill, and women can often unknowingly sabotage themselves with behaviors such as extreme perfectionism, over-preparing, falling behind, avoiding sharing their talents and ideas, or failing to complete important projects.
Through years of field research, Valerie Young reveals why so many successful women live with such overwhelming doubt. Through in-depth analysis, effective advice, and real-life examples, she delivers the solutions women have been searching for.
