DESCRIPTION:\nWhile the ‘imposter syndrome’ has been somewhat triviali
 sed in social media recently\, the impostor phenomenon (as it is more corr
 ectly known) is of key concern to those in higher education.  Initiatives 
 aimed at broadening participation of under-represented groups (e.g. women 
 in STEM\, first in family\, BAME students) will be less than successful un
 less ‘feelings of intellectual fraudulence’ associated with ‘otherne
 ss’ is addressed and diminished.  This of course\, relates to both staff
  and students.\n\nThis introductory workshop\, delivered by Dr Theresa Sim
 pkin\, aims to highlight the implications of impostor phenomenon in the hi
 gher education setting\, highlighting how the often debilitating experienc
 e can adversely affect achievement\, engagement and learning experiences o
 n campus and into the workplace. The workshop also introduces some respons
 es that may assist faculty and support services to address the experience 
 faced by many students and staff alike. \n\nThis event is hosted and provi
 ded by the University of Cambridge Women’s Staff Network and is open to 
 member and non-members.  Further details and booking can be found here htt
