How High Performers Beat Imposter Syndrome at Work

Host: Chris Rainey

One of the most-followed podcasts globally for CHROs and HR executives. Maharukh explains how senior leaders overcome imposter syndrome by closing the identity gap — reframing self-doubt as a signal of growth rather than proof of failure, and shifting self-perception to drive stronger execution.

Drawing on two decades of corporate leadership across finance, hospitality and consulting, Maharukh unpacks why being the most reliable expert in the room and being seen as the obvious choice for leadership are two entirely different things.
