Workshop: Perfectionism and Imposter Syndrome  
Workhop for Postdocs of all research fields UA Ruhr universities 
We argue that our perfectionism drives us to great heights, to excel, and to maintain our edge. We rarely stop to see the costs it carries. Imposter syndrome distorts the way we see ourselves, our performance, and our capabilities. Both reflect our doubts and fears — fear of being judged, fear of failing, fear of not being good enough, fear of not belonging. They're the product of distorted thinking patterns. Thinking patterns that we can change.

In this session, we explore:

The true costs of these doubts and fears, and the extent to which they are impacting on your productivity, mental clarity, and your joy for what you do.
Simple ways to notice when your perfectionism or imposter syndrome is tripping you up.
Simple ways to reshape your inner critic to be more objective and more compassionate, so that you can thrive thanks to the voice in your head rather than in spite of
