You often hear managers say that they want to recruit people who will ‘fit in’ with the team. And leaders often extol the benefits of having ‘alignment’ – everyone heading in the same direction.

People who doubt their abilities to the point they sometimes feel they don’t deserve to have the role they have landed suffer from “imposter syndrome.” A recent Harvard business review survey canvased Fortune 500 CEOs and found that 95% of them had suffered at times from imposter syndrome, or feeling they would be ‘found out’ that they weren’t up to the job.
