Let’s face it, career confidence can be a fickle friend in the professional world. 

One day you’re nailing presentations and crushing deadlines, the next you’re battling imposter syndrome and questioning your every move. 

If this describes you, you’re not alone. Imposter syndrome is a challenge for a lot people, many of whom are quite capable individuals. In fact, I’d argue that imposter syndrome is more likely to affect those that are capable and competent.

Think about it this way… You don’t get far in your career without upleveling yourself, which means you occasionally have to face uncomfortable truths about yourself and learn to do better. Those that are less competent tend to be less aware of their limitations, and therefore tend to remain stagnant in their mindset, skills, and careers.

As a default, imposter syndrome rarely affects such individuals.

You might find you’re doubting yourself more than you’d like, but fear not. Building powerful career confidence isn’t about luck or magic tricks – it’s about intentional action and strategic mindset shifts. 

In this article, I’ll give you 7 strategies that you can immediately implement to boost your career confidence, aiding you as you further develop a successful career.
