Are you afraid to take the next step? Do you think you’re not good enough? Or wonder why you were hired in the first place? This is what we call Impostor Syndrome. Did you know some of the most famous, brilliant and amazing people suffer from it? In this talk I will share my experience and thoughts and hopefully help you take that step to become the developer you really want to become.
