TechKeeper’s Guide #64 – Everybody in the IT Industry Suffers From a Mass Impostor Syndrome?

“Impostor syndrome is an overwhelming feeling that you’re not competent, skilled or experienced enough, and any day now you’ll be exposed as a “fraud”. You do your tasks, stuff works and customers are happy but you still think you have no idea what you’re doing but just get lucky instead."

That's why instead of a regular featured article, we decided to share with you a poll created by The Software House's CTO – Marek Gajda to get your opinions on impostor syndrome. 📊

Besides that, in the newest issue, we highly recommend articles on avoiding the budget breaking, becoming more strategic and maintaining leadership integrity.

Enjoy the content and keep on leading! ✊
