Over the years, you worked hard to become a great designer — you practised your craft, honed your skills and finally put those imposter syndrome days behind you. Now, with your experience in tow, you've taken the step into leadership. But yet you find yourself wondering: ""Wait. Have I got this right?"" and asking ""what the hell am I even doing here?"".
For anyone new to leading a design team and feeling like an imposter: you're not alone. In this session, Temi shares a personal journey with impostor syndrome in leadership, and thoughts on how to move from feeling like you're faking it to finding your voice as a leader.
