الملخص:Imposter syndrome presents significant challenges for individuals, particularly high achievers, leading to feelings of inadequacy and adverse effects on personal and organizational well-being. Understanding the nuances of this syndrome is essential for addressing the pervasive feelings of self-doubt that can hinder performance and overall satisfaction. This study explores the psychological foundations, impacts, and coping strategies associated with imposter syndrome, thereby enhancing our comprehension of the phenomenon. It identifies negative characteristics linked to the syndrome, such as elevated anxiety levels and diminished self-efficacy, and underscores its detrimental effects on individual well-being and organizational dynamics, including burnout and decreased job satisfaction. Effective coping strategies, such as reframing negative thoughts and fostering social support, are discussed as means to mitigate these impacts. The study advocates for targeted interventions within organizations to raise awareness and promote equitable practices, ultimately contributing to a healthier work environment.
