Naturally, both male and female people succeed in their careers by putting in some effort. For instance, this applies to teachers, government workers, doctors, politicians, and business people. Even if women work hard and reach that position, this society labels them as successful because of their beauty and femaleness.
Even if they really have worth, this society does not recognize it. This is called the glass ceiling effect.
What is the glass ceiling effect? A survey was conducted in the 90s. Female employees increased by 30% to 40%.
But when other people analyzed the same data, they did not even increase by 1 percent at the CEO level. Why did they not let them come?So what is this glass ceiling effect? That is, if a female exceeds a certain level, she is not given promotions, with the excuse that she cannot do the job. This is not only the case in India but also all over the world. Somewhere like Indira Gandhi, Jayalalithaa, or the Bangladesh PM, this rarely happens. Their percentage is very low.
That is, not only a person’s performance but also many factors lead to success.
And what happens in this imposter syndrome is that I am not worthy of this success, I am not worthy, I got this success by luck, and I am afraid that this will not last or will go away later.It is visible in their psychology and personality.
This is not a mental disorder that has been officially recognized. There are thousands of names.
There are some professions that have to work without talking much. Doctors just listen to their patients when they come and prescribe tablets. There is no need to put in much effort psychologically.
But a psychologist should be very confident. If you are not confident, it will be difficult to connect with clients.
Even movie heroes suffer from inferiority complexes, wondering if it is because of luck or if they are worth it.
So if there are any such people, they can get out of it by consulting a psychologist and getting counseling.
Do you understand What is Imposter Syndrome.
