[Dana Bresee Keeth]

Hello MIT Postdocs - the session described below is open to postdocs and 
may be of interest to you:

***

The Office of Minority Education (OME) is hosting internationally known 
speaker *Dr. Valerie Young* for an *Impostor Syndrome Seminar* on 
*Thursday, October 3^rd * from *6:30pm-7:30pm* in *Little Kresge* 
*Theater* <http://whereis.mit.edu/?go=14>.

We would like to invite you out to this event and are hoping you can 
assist us by distributing this information to your networks and 
departments. This event is open to the entire MIT community and we 
encourage all students, faculty, and staff to attend.

I have attached a brief program description and flyer that you can feel 
free to post in your respective areas.

*/If you have ever.../*

*/dismissed your accomplishments as a "fluke" or "no big deal?" /*

*/thought, "If I can do it, anyone can"?/*

*/shied away from taking on even greater challenges because of nagging 
self-doubt? /*

*/been crushed by even constructive criticism, taking it as evidence of 
your ineptness? If so, join the club!/*

*//*

*/You'll walk away with practical strategies for interrupting the 
Impostor Syndrome that you can start using immediately. By applying 
these simple but powerful techniques you'll finally be able to begin to 
see yourself as the bright, competent person you _really_ are!__/*

Thanks and please let me know if you have any questions.

Best,

Antonio C. Perry
