In this episode of the Let's Go Let's Grow Podcast, Des Penny is joined by Richard Dore, Co-CEO at Proteus Leadership, to discuss the imposter syndrome.

They discuss the prevalence of the imposter syndrome, particularly among those in leadership positions, and how it can be incredibly daunting and inhibiting.

However, they also discuss how individuals and workplaces can leverage those crippling moments of self-doubt and turn them into opportunities for personal development, transformation, and growth.

The term imposter syndrome was originally coined as the imposter phenomena in the 1970s by psychologists Dr. Pauline Rose Clance and Suzanne Imes to describe the phenomena they observed among high-achieving training women who believe that they were not as competent or intelligent as others perceive them to be.

Find out if Des and Richard experience imposter syndrome and how prevalent it really is.
