Here's how you can build confidence and conquer imposter syndrome in your Training career.

Most trainers, go through this; more so in the initial few years or sometimes when plunging into a project that's way out of their comfort zone. It's normal for us to sometime question our abilities and doubt whether you are the best fit. But hey, let me quote here, that you are never ever presented with a challenge that you are not worthy of. So, know it in your heart that you are capable. Work on your craft- keep on learning and practicing continuously. The more trainings you take the more comfortable you will get. At the beginning of your career, if at all you have to take some trainings for free to gain some experience, please go ahead. It's a journey, enjoy each step, learn at each step. You are not an imposter, you belong.

A síndrome do impostor é uma realidade para muitos profissionais, especialmente para aqueles na área de treinamento, onde a expectativa de expertise é alta. Como somos vistos como "aqueles que devem saber mais", o medo de errar e n?o ter respostas refor?a ainda mais a sensa??o de "impostor". Para enfraquecer esse sentimento, revisite a sua história, veja quantos profissionais já formou e mais que isso, que transformou por meio do seu conhecimento. E lembre-se que n?o somos o google ou o chat GPT pra ter todas as respostas. O que n?o souber, pesquise, aprenda e aprimore constantemente para ser amanh? melhor que hoje, n?o perfeito!

Set clear, achievable goals to build confidence and conquer imposter syndrome in your training career. Break down big tasks into smaller steps, celebrate your progress, and track your achievements. This helps you see your growth, stay motivated, and realise your true capabilities, making you feel more confident and less like an imposter.

We often don't ask for feedback because we're worried of being criticised. However, feedback is extremely powerful to understand where we are and how to improve ourselves. To begin with, seek feedback from trusted colleagues. Then apply those points in your work, so that you can get your work to be as comprehensive as possible. Once you've asked for feedback enough times from people you perceive as safe, gradually move on to those you don't know. Soon, seeking feedback won't be so daunting! It'll simply be a part of the process!

N?o há evolu??o sem prática. E quando falamos de treinamento, ainda mais. A cada aula aplicada, cada conhecimento repassado, cada técnica colocada em prática aprimora as suas habilidades de comunica??o e te proporciona mais confian?a em si mesmo e no seu potencial. Quando iniciei na área, treinava muitas vezes com outros instrutores ou até mesmo em frente ao espelho para observar meus gestos, tom de voz, forma de falar, vícios de linguagem, dentre outros. Hoje, n?o preciso mais treinar com tanta frequência, mas antes de cada treinamento realizo pelo menos um ensaio pra corrigir erros e melhorar cada vez a minha entrega. Tente. Vale a pena!

Building myself up from the ground up from literally nothing and no blue blooded background, as many other entrepreneurs or self-made leaders have done. It is undeniable that there are moments that even I have felt that do I "belong", while there is no doubt that I deserve to be in the space. There are instances that are alien or strange that tug at confidence levels. To counter this early on in my career I decided to share knowledge wholeheartedly without holding back and I attribute my ability to overcoming my iteration of "imposter syndrome" through the countless young Mentees I have taken on over the years, guiding them has not only been a meaningful honour and privilege, but it has bolstered my own hunger for knowledge and confidence.

Acknowledge your achievements, seek continuous learning, and embrace feedback. Set realistic goals, celebrate small wins, and surround yourself with supportive peers to bolster your confidence and diminish imposter syndrome.

As an eleven-year breast cancer survivor, HR professional, and current student at WGU's School of Business, building confidence and overcoming imposter syndrome in my training career after a 10-year hiatus involves several steps: Acknowledge Your Achievements: Recognize your resilience and accomplishments, both personal and professional. Update Skills: Leverage resources to refresh and acquire new skills relevant to your field. Seek Support: Connect with mentors, peers, and professional networks for guidance and encouragement. Reframe Negative Thoughts: Challenge self-doubt by focusing on your strengths and past successes. Practice Self-Compassion: Be patient with yourself and celebrate small victories as you reintegrate into the workforce

Construir confian?a e superar a sensa??o de que n?o é bom o suficiente pode ser um desafio, mas é essencial para alcan?ar o sucesso e a satisfa??o profissional. Seja gentil consigo mesmo e pratique a auto empatia. Todos cometem erros, e é importante aprender com eles em vez de se criticar excessivamente. Como profissionais de treinamento, muitas vezes precisamos ser empáticos com nossos treinandos, ent?o trate-se com a mesma empatia e compreens?o que você oferece aos outros. Se cobre o suficiente para buscar ser melhor, mas n?o a ponto de só enxergar seus pontos negativos. Todos temos acertos e falhas e o lado que fala mais alto é aquele que você dá mais aten??o.

Me gusta pensar que el síndrome del impostor es un mito, pues en realidad, somos nosotros mismos los que nos ponemos estas dudas. Nos exigimos demasiado y, cuando no alcanzamos la perfección, nos castigamos pensando que no somos lo suficientemente buenos. En parte, se puede evitar con tres simples tareas: 1. Reconoce tus logros 2: Acepta la imperfección 3. Habla de tus Inseguridades
