About this episode

You just got that new promotion or the new job that you always dreamed of getting one day.  But now that you're in the job, you have some real anxieties that perhaps you're in over your head and you're not ready to take on that new position.   These are quite normal feelings to have.  It's a phenomenon called the imposter syndrome.   In this episode of positive leadership, I talk about the imposter syndrome; what it is, and how to quickly overcome it.  It's a good listen for anyone who is struggling with feelings of inadequacy that often comes with taking on a new job or position with more responsibility. Thanks to SMSgt Joseph Hunt of the 51st Civil Engineer Squadron at Osan AB for giving me the inspiration for this important episode.  Enjoy!
