Aim and content
This workshop does not grant ECTS credit.The workshop is reserved for PhD students at the Graduate School of Health and Medical Sciences at UCPH. Anyone can apply for the workshop, but if you are not a PhD student at the Graduate School, you will be placed on the waiting list until enrollment deadline. After the enrolment deadline, available seats will be allocated to the waiting list.

The Graduate School invites you to join us for an interactive presentation on:
Why Capable people Suffer from the Imposter Syndrome and How to THRIVE in Spite of It

• Do you chalk your success up to luck, timing, or other external factors?
• Do you believe “If I can do it, anybody can”?
• Do you agonize over even the smallest flaws in your work?
• When you do succeed, do you secretly feel like you fooled them again?
• Do you worry that it’s just a matter of time before you’re “found out?”

If so join the club! Bright students, post-docs, even faculty around the world have these same feelings. Come learn from internationally-recognized expert and author Valerie Young.

Young has spoken at over 85 colleges in the US, Canada, Japan, and the UK including Harvard, Stanford, MIT, and Oxford as well to employees at companies like Apple, Boeing, Microsoft, Google, BP, IBM, and many more. Her award-winning book with Random House, is now in six languages. She’ll lead an interactive session packed full of practical strategies for interrupting needless self-doubt.

In short: Join the seminar and learn how to feel as bright and capable as everyone THINKS you are!
