A Collaborative WIM Initiative Event. The Collaborative WIM Initiative is modeled after the CFA Institute Women In Investment (WIM) Initiative. CFA societies and FPA chapters around the country have joined efforts to further our shared goals of inclusion and diversity in capitalism.
Why do so many individuals fear being exposed as a fraud? Why the self-doubt and self-devaluation?
In this seminar, you will learn:
- What neuroscience and psychology tell us about the prevalence of “imposter syndrome” and why is it more prevalent in high achievers.
- The costs of imposter syndrome on individuals and organizations.
- The relationship between competence and confidence and why are both needed to achieve full potential.
- Practical strategies can organizations implement and individuals use to break out of “imposter syndrome.”
