create Calagator::Event 1250467069 ChickTech Imposter Syndrome Workshop Roll back

description nil More more info and to RSVP, please visit the eventbrite link above. Cost of the workshop is $15 for students and $20 for community members. Have you ever felt like a fraud? Do you attribute your successes to luck or chance? Do you feel inadequate despite evidence to the contrary and worry that others will “find you out”? If you answered yes to any of these questions - guess what, you are not alone! You merely have a case of . . . Imposter Syndrome. What is Imposter Syndrome? Come join us for an evening and find out! We will kick off the night with dinner and our Keynote speaker, Vanessa Van Edwards (http://www.scienceofpeople.com/about-vanessa-van-edwards/). We will then break into small groups to discuss how Imposter Syndrome affects us in our everyday lives and do activities that help build confidence in the value we bring to the table. Still not convinced? Tina Fey, Maya Angelou, and Sheryl Sandberg have all admitted to feeling like imposters in their careers at some point. If these "low-achieving" women can overcome the thickets of Imposter Syndrome so can you! We hope to see you at the workshop! Please note, although this is a female-centered workshop, everyone is welcome to attend. Please see ChickTech's inclusion policy for more detail (http://chicktech.org/about-us/inclusion-policy/). <strong>Dinner and supplies are included in the cost of this workshop.</strong>
