Impostor Syndrome is a quiet and subversive force in a lot of developer's lives. They feel like they're faking their way through their job, and they silently panic as they wait for everyone to find out they don't really know what they're doing. It can be crippling, and left alone it can develop into an anxiety disorder, or worse. If you can relate, or even if you just want to learn how to be a little more confident in yourself, come and listen as we cover what Impostor Syndrome is, some theories why it happens, and strategies you can use to eliminate it (that's right, you actually can)!

Notes de l'éditeur
- Primarily successful people
- Primarily conscientious & diligent people
- Primarily intelligent people
- Maybe even you!
- Oh #@$%! It’s due tomorrow!
- We feel relief.
- But once we get positive feedback…
- “I’m just going to avoid anything I could fail at, and then no one will find out I’m a fraud”
- You’ve probably heard about the Idiot who doesn’t know how bad they are at something
- The other side of this is that highly-skilled people tend to underestimate how skilled they actually are.
- When you get praise, you feel like it isn’t actually sincere, and shrug it off.
- Watching a high-achiever get punished.
