Imposter syndrome is something to which most of us can relate. The idea of doubting our own skills and abilities, even in the face of myriad accomplishments. It's a common human experience. It's easier to have faith in others than buy into ourselves.

When Tina Vatanka Murphy was called into a meeting with her company's CEO and HR director to talk about filling the role of president for Global Healthcare Exchange's (GHX) European enterprise, she didn't realize they were asking her to take on that role. She had never envisioned herself in that type of leadership position.

What's interesting and surprising and delightful is that –– while it's true that she hadn't seen herself in that role –– once she came to grips with this unexpected proposal, there wasn't imposter syndrome, her first thought was refreshing. Of course I can do this! "I'm going to go kill it."
