Major Hayden, principal architect at Rackspace, lead  a discussion on impostor syndrome including how to identify it and how to overcome it.



The OpenStack community is highly collaborative, fast-paced, and helpful.

However, some new community members are overwhelmed with new terminology and detailed processes, especially those with impostor syndrome.  They struggle with an internal battle where their confidence and competence are not aligned. Impostor syndrome is a psychological phenomenon that affects people from all backgrounds and all skill levels. They feel like their competence level is much lower than it really is and they feel this way on a regular basis. This can cause community members to become detached or feel incapable of providing meaningful contributions.
