How can career development models help you overcome imposter syndrome?

Maybe it’s me, but it seems like these AI generated articles are obsessed with models. Sometimes models are helpful but I’m not sure models address the problem here. Imposter syndrome is another name for fear. It happens when we step into new situations. Our bodies go through changes and our confidence flags. We doubt ourselves and beat ourselves up. We used to say it happens more easily and often to women because of our socialization but then men started popping up and saying hey, it happens to us too. We should start talking about how we feel, all the time, like a normal topic at work. Why is it so hard? I grew up in the working world not wanting to name my feelings, not even wanting to feel them. Maybe it’s time to evolve.

Perder el trabajo es probablemente uno de los sucesos que más causan en el profesional el síndrome del impostor. Las dudas, el enojo, el estrés, la preocupación, la ansiedad y la tristeza que genera nubla de pronto todo aquello que a lo largo de sus carreras han logrado y de pronto esto parece no tener relevancia. Es difícil que en el inicio del proceso de búsqueda y reinserción laboral un profesional (desvinculado) se sienta poderoso y capaz. En mi experiencia particular la reedición y actualización del CV es realmente reveladora. El que revivan su trayectoria a?o por a?o, valoren sus logros e integren las habilidades que desarrollaron los vuelve nuevamente poderosos y son capaces de hacer una búsqueda más asertiva de un nuevo trabajo.

Mais do que falar em carreira apenas, devemos falar em autoconhecimento. Uma pessoa que n?o investe tempo em conhecer seus pontos fortes, geradores de energia, bem como as fun??es que lhe drenam energia, terá mais dificuldades em temas de carreira. Investir tempo em processos de autoconhecimento trará, em todas as áreas da vida, excelentes resultados.

Em se tratando de síndrome do impostor especificamente, eu sempre recomendo e aplico o Assessment de Sabotadores desenvolvido a partir dos estudos sobre Inteligência Positiva de Shirzad Chamine. O resultado deste assessment traz uma vis?o muito clara sobre como nos sabotamos, com que tipo de cren?as nossos pensamentos produzem sentimentos negativos que interferem direta ou indiretamente na sensa??o de sucesso e bem-estar com a vida profissional. Vale a pena conhecer, refletir e agir intencionalmente para fortalecer o lado positivo do cérebro como forma de minimizar a influência dos sabotadores descobertos.

Imposter syndrome, if we have to call it that, is a product of our fear-based management system and mindset. If we were allowed to step into new identities at work feeling understood, supported and celebrated as we stepped into a new and scary situation we might not have as tough a time. People around us would understand that we were in transition and we would understand their transitions, too. But that’s not how it is at work for most people. We step into a new situation, a promotion or new job, with little or no support for the change process. You would get more support learning a new software application. Workplaces are full of changes, but support for the changes we experience is often scanty if there is any at all.

La gran mayoría de personas que llegan a mi para que los ayude en su reinserción, tienen como principal problema, identificar sus logros, su potencial, minimizando todo aquello que han alcanzado en su vida laboral, quizás porque se autoexigen demasiado (producto de la alta exigencia en la infancia o similar), o en su defecto, porque encontraron personas que socavaron su autoconfianza y seguridad. Lo primero a trabajar cuando me encuentro con estas dificultades, es en ayudar a la persona a reconocer cada meta alcanzada, y cada fortaleza que posee, porque finalmente, solo trabajando en la autoconfianza y seguridad personal, la persona alcanzará su objetivo de seguir creciendo profesionalmente o reinsertarse laboralmente.

Personally I believe that the ability to look within for answers without the fear of receiving feedback whether it be positive or negative will imminently cure imposter syndrome. This spectrum plays out in me self doubting in my ability to be productive even with my level of experience; I get the feeling that I’m not good enough and there is possibly someone or a new technology out there that can be more efficient than I’m. I have learnt that the human mind can never be replaced by technology because of the individualistic experience that influences our interaction with services, products, environment, people and the world at large. So, the ability to take feedback with grace; will definitely foster confident and end imposter syndrome

One simple and effective method is self reflection through journaling. Writing down every night about one's small wins and also looking at challenges as opportunities to evolve one's character builds one's confidence level. As the saying goes- Change the meaning, change your life. And that requires discipline and commitment to inculcate this new habit of changing one's mindset. It can be supported with positive affirmations which need to become part of one's daily habit like having meals three times a day. That makes a great difference.

Many times we are involved in a new role without knowing anything about it. We have a general idea, but not a complete vision of the situation. I think we need a process to follow, but, who has to provide us? In general, we start a new position and other people thought you should know what to do in any case. If we want people to feel comfortable with the new role, some kind of shoulder has to be done, by the company or entity, if not, the majority of people feel lost.

If you were taught since you were little that there is a solution, a remedy, an algorithm, an equation, a model, a rule, a policy, a calculation, a method, a protocol or a norm to structure and define almost everything a person can do and most of the things a person can think, you might stop there. You might look for every answer outside yourself. If you got a lot of reinforcement as a child for looking inward, consulting your heart and mind, pondering and reflecting, picking up messages from any source and believing in yourself, you might rely on those inputs more and on external models and frameworks less. In my view we have too many models, too much reliance on data and too little respect for the power of humans at work.

I share your sentiment, Liz, regarding the crucial nature of receiving support during a career transition. It’s a crucial element that is frequently overlooked, and many of us may not receive the necessary assistance. However, I believe it's up to the individual to proactively prepare for this shift by devising a plan and setting their own course. It's important to manage one's expectations of support from colleagues, managers, or executives. In my experience, adopting this self-reliant approach has proven to be effective

We have "models" set by people from past successes, yet with the everchanging societal roles and norms, along with technology, our models must adapt as well. Nothing can replace innovation, determination, networking, respect, due diligence, and attention-to-detail, in my humble opinion. However, if a particular model isn't working for you, then it is time to look within and see if the barrier is self-made, or a different approach to a similar situation to solve or improve, than the previous model. As we change and adapt, so must our models; yet the basic premises of hard work, working smart, gratitude, kindness, and fortitude must stay in place.

Der Einsatz von Karriereentwicklungsmodellen kann Ihnen viele Vorteile bringen, die Ihnen helfen k?nnen, Klarheit und Richtung für Ihre Karriere zu gewinnen, Ihre F?higkeiten und Ihr Wissen zu entwickeln, Ihre Herausforderungen und Hindernisse zu bew?ltigen, Ihre Ziele und Meilensteine zu erreichen und Ihre Arbeit und Ihr Leben zu genie?en. Diese Modelle k?nnen Ihnen nicht nur dabei helfen, das Hochstapler-Syndrom zu überwinden, sondern auch Ihre Karriere mit Ihren pers?nlichen und beruflichen Zielen in Einklang zu bringen, St?rken und Chancen zu nutzen, Schw?chen und Bedrohungen zu überwinden, Erfolge und Belohnungen zu feiern und Rollen und Verantwortlichkeiten auszubalancieren.

La verdad es que no he seguido ningún modelo y ni siquiera lo había pensado. Estos últimos a?os es cuando me he visto haciendo un análisis de mi vida profesional mucho más profundo, seguramente porque he desempe?ado y desempe?o puestos bastante diversos en sectores muy distintos. He reconocido en mí habilidades que ya había adquirido. Las he ido aportando de una manera natural y hasta las he ido mejorando, limando, aplicándolas en tareas varias. Hasta me he dado cuenta de que hay bastantes tareas que están relacionadas por mucho que los puestos se vean muy distintos. Puede que sea esto lo que me ha animado a prestar más atención a las funciones que se solicitan que al "título" del puesto. Esta mirada flexible ha sido mi fortaleza.

La gestion de carrière nécessite d'être dans une phase émotionnelle où nous sommes suffisamment ancrée et libre intellectuellement pour pouvoir s'autoriser, avec bienveillance, a faire son auto analyse, a prendre du recul sur le chemin parcouru et les actions a mettre en place pour tendre vers ses nouvelles aspirations. Il faut se montrer curieux, développer son go?t d'apprendre et sa confiance en l'autre afin de pouvoir se faire accompagner et aider dans la réalisation de cette étape importante dans la gestion de son parcours professionnel afin de demeurer acteur de celui-ci.

Die Nutzung von Karriereentwicklungsmodellen birgt einige Einschr?nkungen. Beispielsweise kann eine zu starre Anwendung dazu führen, dass neue M?glichkeiten übersehen werden. Es besteht auch das Risiko, frustriert oder entmutigt zu werden und seine Tr?ume aufzugeben. Konflikte mit anderen, die das Modell nicht teilen, k?nnen auftreten und Beziehungen gef?hrden. Um diese Einschr?nkungen zu vermeiden, sollten Sie das Modell als Leitfaden und nicht als starre Regeln betrachten. Seien Sie flexibel, passen Sie es an Ihre Bedürfnisse an und suchen Sie proaktiv Unterstützung und Feedback von anderen, um zu wachsen und zu lernen.

Imposter syndrome means you're doing it right. "I want to learn and grow in my career." it's what I hear multiple times a day. You know what it means? You will need to learn to do something you have yet to do. This means, at the beginning, your confidence in your ability to do the thing won't be so great. You know how you build confidence in doing this thing? Doing it more. Eventually, the noise that a**hole noise in your head makes will start to dim. And then you find a new thing. You don't need to feel like an imposter at everything, just enough to feed that quieter but equally consistent "I want to learn and grow." voice. Optimize for the imposter—just a little bit.

Models may be overrated. They are the academic expression explaining the variance throughout our careers. They provide a roadmap and give perspective however, as your face milestones in your career, you might want to look at the person you are, you got the promotion because you demonstrated capability. Remember, no one expects you to be able to do the new job exactly right immediately in fact, you might want to take the position of just listening learning and asking a lot of questions.
