Dr Julia Hayes will lead this workshop focusing on imposter syndrome. She will explore what it is and how it can affect the feelings and performance of people on a day to day basis.
The session will give participants the opportunity to reflect upon the ways in which imposter feelings affect them, and discussion around the ways in which it can be managed.
Participants will leave the session with a greater awareness of the situations that increase their imposter feelings and have strategies to manage them.
Dr Hayes is an Educational Psychologist, disability consultant and trainer who put her career on hold to complete a PhD at the University of Cambridge.
This workshop will be 1.5 hours and will cover the following aspects:
- What is research related trauma/vicarious trauma?

Research impact can be defined as a “demonstratable contribution” made by research towards "society and the economy”. It can take various forms, including changes in understanding, developments in methods, shaping of policies and shifts in behaviours. Yet, the word ‘impact’ can be burdened by assumptions and connotations of a particular range of research ‘outcomes’.
This workshop aims to question these assumptions and connotations regarding what impact should or could look like within social science research. In so doing we will construct nuanced understands of how impact may relate to our own projects as well as the theories, methods and values informing our projects.
