Bedside Reading
Playing Big
Have you ever suffered from imposter syndrome? I think most healthcare professionals have done at some point during their lives. Today's book is one which seeks to address many of the factors that influence that. Though interestingly, the writer Tara Moore doesn't ever use the phrase "imposter syndrome".
I'm here today with Sam Powell to talk about Playing Big by Tara Moore. This is a really accessible leadership book, thinking about why women often "play small",
why they don't necessarily push themselves forward, why they let their inner critic sabotage the amazing ideas that they've got and things that they want to do.
It is book filled with lots and lots of practical wisdom, which I have thoroughly enjoyed talking about.
