The impostor syndrome trap: Why are so many women shackled by it at the workplace?

Imposter syndrome is a psychological pattern where individuals doubt their abilities and fear being exposed as frauds, impacting both men and women in the workplace. Women often face unique challenges like discriminatory comments and lack of role models. To combat this, women can challenge stereotypes, seek mentorship, advocate for fair compensation, and build supportive networks to enhance their confidence and sense of belonging.
