Ever had that niggling thought at a networking event or professional meet-up that you’re about to be unmasked? That someone will suddenly point at you and reveal to the room that you’re not as brilliant as your LinkedIn profile makes you out to be? Congratulations, you’ve met Impostor Syndrome: the party crasher of the professional world, making you doubt your accomplishments and feel like a fraud among your peers.
It’s a frequently discussed topic, yet we seldom express our fears and doubts. You’re not alone if the thought of networking events fills you with dread rather than excitement. The good news?
