"Fraud Alert: Shatter Impostor Syndrome" - HIL Ballroom of Americas D

Have you ever felt like a fraud in your profession, despite your accomplishments? Success should build confidence, not shake it, but many women and underrepresented minorities in the tech industry struggle with impostor syndrome. Explore and develop actionable strategies to overcome it, learn how self-talk shapes perceptions of worth and build a network to help you "fake it till you make it."
