Open Stack

Mark your calendars to join us as we continue our Women of OpenStack
speaker series on June 26, 2017. We will be joined by Major Hayden,
principal architect at Rackspace, who will 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.
