Why Do I Feel Like an Imposter?

Have you ever felt like a fraud? Do you think your accomplishments are a matter of luck rather than skill? If so, you are not alone.

This is an increasingly common phenomenon known as Imposter Syndrome (IS).

Research has revealed that if you haven't suffered from these sorts of fears, you're in the minority. According to recent figures, over 70% of us have felt this at some point in time.

So why is this phenomenon growing? How do we recognize it, and what can we do to manage the triggers and build self-confidence?

Imposter Syndrome has traditionally been associated with women in the workplace. However, in this book Dr Sandi Mann goes beyond this group to look at IS in men and women in social situations, as parents, as students and as teens.

Filled with information, self-assessment quizzes, case studies and helpful coping tips and strategies, this book is for anyone who thinks they may have IS or knows someone who might.
