Impostor Syndrome

http://www.boothedog.net

Zach Leatherman noticed a common thread among people giving talks at conferences and meetups:

They’d often start their talks with “I’m not the most qualified person to speak on this topic,” or “I’m sure you guys are all smarter than me.”

In response he gave a talk about Impostor Syndrome.

It is a short talk, and very fun. It is also a pretty good example of a really good projected presentation. He is breaking the rule about not projecting what you are saying—you should only project the high-level bullet points—but he is mostly doing it in meme form for comedic affect, so it is effective anyway.
