Hello everyone! I like an article I read over the weekend that I want to share ka. Basima A. Tewfik, an assistant professor at MIT Sloan, ran two field studies and two experiments and Eben Harrell wrote it in this article entitled, 'Impostor Syndrome Has Its Advantages', published in Harvard Business Review, May–June 2022.
Imposter syndrome is what I've read and thought sometimes of my own self ka, feeling I too may have this syndrome na ka. The short description given reads as follows:
"....commonly thought of as the feeling of being inadequate and a fraud despite a reputation for success at work."
The research offers the following worth sharing ka:
1. Nearly 70% of people have had impostor thoughts at least at one point in their careers, especially when facing a new challenge from a new job or new tasks after promotion.
I think I can't agree more. I personally was really stressed when changing a job or given some new tasks.....it's about fear, face, and faith in myself lae ka. My own lessons have led me to think of giving myself more time to learn, seeking advice, and trying out. Then, wait and see the results ka! Once I try my best, my regrets are much less ka.
2. Impostor thoughts didn’t seem to hurt performance. If at times we have these thoughts, don't add on to our own stress since it isn't that bad to cause poorer performance.
3. Those experiencing it could be '.... more adept at relationships, which is a key ingredient in career success.'
From one of her studies on doctors in training, it showed that those who'.... had more frequent imposter thoughts were significantly better at handling sensitive interactions with patients, which led those patients to give them higher interpersonal-skill ratings. Another study was similar for this type of people to have better people skills.
