Say goodbye to Impostor Syndrome
and watch your team's confidence explode!
Impostor Syndrome expert and former NASA Engineer Maureen Zappala shows high achievers how to overcome the self-doubt that haunts them
Even your most brilliant team members may be doubting their own brilliance.
Despite a long list of accomplishments, many of them feel unqualified for their job. They second guess their work. They look accomplished, but they feel like frauds.
It’s called THE IMPOSTOR SYNDROME.
And it’s the single most significant obstacle preventing your best people from giving their best effort.
Impostor Syndrome leads to poor performance, burnout, employee disengagment and high turnover.
- It keeps bright and capable people afraid of new challenges.
- It suppresses creativity and stifles innovation, leaving critical problem unsolved.
- It can cost a company time, revenue and opportunities.

About Maureen
Keynote Speaker, Author, Chief Impostor Buster
When I was hired at the NASA Lewis Research Center as a research engineer in the Propulsion Systems Lab, I thought, “They only hired me because they need more women.”
I wasn’t a straight-A student, so I didn’t think it was my transcript that opened the door. Terrified of failing, I worked harder than I thought possible. I believed if people saw my hard work, they wouldn’t notice I didn’t belong.
But with every promotion that same fear snuck in. “I don’t belong here. I’m not as smart as everyone thinks I am.”
Only years later did I discover that millions of people suffer this same, self-doubt-fueled fear. It’s called Impostor Syndrome and it is killing creativity and stifling opportunities for individuals and organizations everywhere.
