The WiN Cumbria committee has put together a nominations sub-group with the objective of nominating hardworking and inspiring women in Cumbria for awards, both local and national. A recent study in the UK found that two-thirds of women in the UK have experienced imposter syndrome in the last 12 months, and this is just one of the reasons for the nominations group. Women are less likely to feel confident in a work environment and tend to only listen to the negative feedback. Men can also experience imposter syndrome but are 18% less likely to than women. This is a contributing factor to women feeling like they are not worthy and, as such, may not consider nominating themselves for an award.
