Hello and welcome to another episode of the Leadership Log where we talk about navigating everyday leadership.
In this episode we are talking with Lucy Brown about her experiences of Imposter Syndrome
Imposter syndrome was first described by two clinical psychologists – Dr Pauline Clance and Dr Suzanne Imes – in 1978, and it is reported that about 70 per cent of people have felt some degree of imposter syndrome and we think it is something almost everyone can relate to.
Lucy is the Director of Nursing and Deputy Director of the Florence Nightingale Foundation Academy. She is an experienced Director of Nursing, award-winning Clinical Leader and proud FNF alumni. Lucy started her nursing career at Guys and St Thomas’ specialising in Paediatric Intensive Care before moving to Australia where she worked in the Royal Childrens Hospital in Brisbane. Most recently Lucy has been working for Circle Health group as a Director of Nursing supporting the NHS resilience work on the frontline.
Lucy shares here experiences of imposter syndrome and provides some useful insights that can help you to recognise how imposter syndrome may operate for you . In the episode Becky and Lucy discuss the 5 competence types defined/described by Dr Valerie Young, an expert on imposter syndrome and author of The Secret Thoughts of Successful Women: Why Capable People Suffer from the Impostor Syndrome and How to Thrive in Spite of It.
