As educational leaders, moments of doubt and insecurity are more common than you might think. We've all been there. This feeling, known as imposter syndrome, can make even accomplished school principals and administrators question their qualifications and worth.

In today’s episode of The Principal’s Handbook, we dive into the realities of imposter syndrome in school leadership and explore actionable strategies to overcome self-doubt. Research shows that approximately 25 to 30 percent of high achievers experience imposter syndrome, with a staggering 70% of adults facing it at least once in their lives.

In this podcast, I’ll share six practical tips to help you combat feelings of inadequacy, build your confidence as a school principal, and take control of your leadership journey. Join me as we tackle imposter syndrome head-on and help you unlock your full potential as a confident, resilient educational leader.
