Event Information
About this Event
For Trinity College Dublin Staff - Professors grades (assistant, associate, in & of)
Master Class Series – Are you as good as they think you are? This secret fear that we're not really good enough is surprisingly widespread. In the face of tangible evidence of their success, many people who are genuine high-achievers are often wracked by self-doubt and the fear of being found out.
During this workshop “Imposters” will
• come to understand how this is affecting their life
• examine the role that gender, race and class can have on feelings of fraudulence
• understand how men and women put different values on the art of "winging it"
• see how their interpretation of success has been making things more difficult
• learn practical strategies to set free their Imposter and be themselves!

My research career is driven by the question "How does that work?". During my career at the University of Surrey, The Institute for Animal Health and the Royal Veterinary College it didn't take long for me to begin to ask that question about teaching students. Why were some techniques more effective than others? What if students had different learning styles?
Similarly when it came to career progression and promotion, why did some people move up more quickly and easily than others? How did that work?
I found many answers through study of Coaching, Behavioural Styles Analysis, Neuro Linguistic Programming and developments in educational theory. In 2003 I founded this company, designed to bring aspects of these disciplines into academic workshops for you to share!
