This is a business and leadership book. When I initially read the title and description, I was hoping for some more insight into my own personal struggles with Imposter Syndrome which has a hand paralyzing my productivity. While I do own a business and haven't gotten a foothold on success, this book paints a picture of the successes of others, especially people of means, and how they seemingly push their insecurities to the wayside to achieve success. And all I kept thinking as I read is that I'm not the audience for this book, as much as the author intended for me to be.

Great book, shows a plethora of tips to deal with feeling like an imposter in life, would highly recommend, Can't wait for more books from this author.

Not What I Thought

When I saw this book at one of my favorite book review sites, I was intrigued by it because, in my circle of friends, we have had discussions about imposter syndrome. I love the idea that a book would broach that topic. But as I read the book, it seemed to be more about personal branding than imposter syndrome. The first time I actually saw the phrase in the book, I cringed. I don't like the concept at all, and I never have. I can still recall when I first heard of it and thought how inappropriate it seemed to even consider pairing individual people and with the concept of branding. I won’t go into why I so strongly dislike the concept. That this book was so much about that when it had not appeared to be was an enormous disappointment. So, don't pick up this book if you're hoping it will about imposter syndrome. However, if you want to learn more about personal branding, especially if you have a corporate job, this book might be of value to you.
