Upcoming Webinar – Starfish Search | Hanover Talent Presents: Embrace your Imposter
Imposter syndrome is more than a passing wobble in confidence - it’s a pattern that quietly shapes how you work, lead and show up. Why does that matter? Because left unchecked, it doesn’t just affect how you feel - it affects the opportunities you go for and the impact you make. That means moving beyond simply pushing through the doubt to understand where it comes from, which type of imposter you are, and how to reframe it. It’s the difference between an imposter that holds you back - and one that works for you.
The Death of the Covering Letter
For the past two years, clients have consistently asked us about our attitude toward Artificial Intelligence (AI). They want to know how we use it, and what we think of candidates using it to write their covering letters.
Boards may be recruiting the wrong leaders for the future – so what needs to change?
Boards often recruit for proven experience, but the future may demand something different. We examine the leadership qualities predicted to matter most by 2035 and how organisations can adapt their approach to finding talent.
