Imposter Syndrome Is A Scheme: Reshma Saujani’s Smith College Commencement Address | The Smith College

Reshma Saujani, the keynote speaker at Smith College's 2023 Commencement, delivers a powerful address challenging the concept of imposter syndrome. She asserts that imposter syndrome isn't a syndrome at all; it's a scheme perpetuated by systemic barriers. Saujani, a gender equality activist and founder of Girls Who Code, advocates for addressing the political, financial, and cultural barriers that hinder women's progress, rather than relying solely on self-improvement tactics.
