Bobbi Gouffon, Director of Organizational Effectiveness for VCU HR, recently gave a presentation to VCU alumni on the topic of imposter syndrome. Imposter syndrome is defined by the National Library of Medicine as “self-doubt of intellect, skills, or accomplishments among high-achieving individuals”. The presentation included information on how imposter syndrome affects people in the workplace, causing capable employees to second-guess themselves and leading to a lack of fulfillment in their profession. Through this presentation, alumni learned skills to help overcome feelings of inferiority and bolster their self-confidence to increase their confidence and performance in the workplace.
