1. Imposter syndrome is a psychological pattern in which an individual doubts their skills, talents, or accomplishments and has a persistent fear of being exposed as a "fraud," despite evident success. People with imposter syndrome may attribute their success to luck rather than their own abilities and may feel that they don't deserve their position or achievements.2. People experience imposter syndrome for various reasons, including low self-esteem, fear of failure, and societal and cultural pressures. It can also stem from a lack of representation or role models in certain fields, leading individuals to feel that they don't belong or that their achievements are not valid.3. Michelle Obama suggests that imposter syndrome is more pronounced for women and people of color due to the additional challenges they face in overcoming discrimination and bias in their personal and professional lives. These experiences can contribute to feelings of inadequacy and self-doubt, making imposter syndrome more likely to occur.4. a. One situation where I felt like an imposter was when I started a new job. I was unsure of my abilities and constantly compared myself to my colleagues, feeling that I didn't measure up.b. In order to feel like I belong, I would need to focus on my strengths and accomplishments, seek feedback and support from colleagues and mentors, and remind myself of the value I bring to the organization.
