The Surprising Gift of Doubt
Use Uncertainty to Become the Exceptional Leader You Are Meant to Be
You’re a high-performing leader. It’s time to shed the doubt.
Are you the type of leader who’s hit milestone after milestone in your career? People look to you for direction. They see you as a model of success. But you don’t. You’re nagged by a voice accusing you of just making it up as you go along. Where does this doubt come from? And is it even possible to shake this uncertainty?
In The Surprising Gift of Doubt, leadership expert Marc A. Pitman shows you how imposter syndrome is actually a signal that you are on the verge of greatness. Here you’ll find the same assessments, exercises, and self-management tools he uses to help his high-powered clients achieve their dreams. He shows you how to harness those uncomfortable feelings to develop a rare level of leadership mastery.
You will emerge from this leader’s journey of self-discovery more sure-footed, courageous, and self-assured. The challenges of leadership will remain, but you’ll be able to meet them with an unshakable inner confidence. An inner confidence that matches the image others have had of you all along.
