​​If you’re a faculty member experiencing imposter syndrome, you are not alone!

​Imposter syndrome, which can create feelings of being “not enough” or not belonging, can impact faculty at all stages of their academic career. Through this workshop, we strive to define and recognize the components of imposter syndrome, and the individual and social factors that perpetuate it.

The workshop also creates space to connect with others experiencing imposter syndrome, and to empower each other in exploring strategies for addressing and transforming imposter syndrome.
