Case study employing REBT techniques
Georgina, a highly successful team leader, she is a thirty-four-year-old. She would like to take the next step in her career, but is afraid to approach the subject with colleagues because she fears they will think of her negatively and probably ridicule her for her lack of experience. Georgina feels in a real bind because she dreads the thought of not fulfilling her potential. She says, "Nothing could be more awful!" except perhaps being ridiculed "because of my stupid behavior” thinking that she could actually progress. Also, she feels self-conscious because she sees herself as not having the right outward image. She believes that work places are unfair to expect so much; therefore, she often feels angry toward them Georgina attributes her reticence in coming forward to the fact that kids poked fun at her in school and called her ”bossy" and then excluded her, she says. "Once an outcast , always an outcast”. Georgina is considering attending a fitness boot camp and image consultant so that “I’ll” look the part” Georgina is also considering resigning from her job because she has daily contact with colleagues and she is sure "they’re talking behind my back about me and my ineptness.” She says that seeing her colleagues makes her feel worse because they remind her of what she hasn’t yet achieved. Georgina wants help in deciding how to solve her ”career" problem.

Imposter Syndrome A pernicious and very real phenomenon affecting most women – and many men
Unchecked, it impacts our confidence and damages our health and sense of well-being…
…undermines most areas of leadership and life
Prevent us from achieving our goals and realising our true potential

Let go of comparing “Imposter tendency is to magnify others’ abilities and achievements, assuming they are getting by effortlessly
Acknowledge that we all have our own challenges, insecurities and struggles
It’s kinder to you, healthier, and more realistic

Own your Success
Playing down our successes doesn’t serve us or anyone else
Blow your own trumpet - not to deafen others but so your music is heard
Define what success looks like for you; worry less about how others (the media…) define it
List key accomplishments from the last 2-5 years – celebrate your many successes
Can you celebrate your failures too? (Painful but our greatest teachers)
