Now in its 16th hugely successful year, the Pink Elephant annual event is widely recognized as “the world’s best IT Service Management conference.” We are pleased to announce that Director Elizabeth Harrin will be speaking at the 2012 event in February.
The event covers a wide range of subjects from all across the ITSM spectrum and Elizabeth herself will be holding sessions on ‘Live & Let Live: Conflict Management In Project Management’ and ‘Social Media for Project Managers’ and will form part of a discussion panel on using social media in IT.
Elizabeth says: “I am delighted to have been invited to speak at this year’s event. It will be my first Pink event and I look forward to meeting the other speakers and attendees. I know that conferences are a great place for sharing ideas for improved best practices in all areas of project management so I’m excited to hear what everyone has to say.”

A new ebook for anyone who has ever felt out of place at work is launched today. Overcoming Imposter Syndrome: Ten Strategies to Stop Feeling Like a Fraud at Work is a new ebook by Elizabeth Harrin that is designed for people who have ever experienced that awkward feeling of not really knowing what they were doing at work.
“Imposter Syndrome is really common,” said Elizabeth, Director of The Otobos Group. “I’ve spoken to many men and women who have talked about feeling as if they aren’t good enough at work.”
Overcoming Imposter Syndrome explains what Imposter Syndrome is, the symptoms and shares 10 ways to overcome those fraudulent feelings. The book includes stories from men and women who have built their self-confidence, tackled Imposter Syndrome and found their own ways to feel more positive about their performance at work.
“Most of the books about Imposter Syndrome explain the symptoms and the rationale behind why we feel like that,” explained Elizabeth. “Learning about why we feel like that is important but I wanted to write something practical that would help people make changes to their attitudes and behaviour straightaway, so the book is full of practical tips from me and people I interviewed.”
“I am now 58 and retired,” said one reviewer. “I wish someone had given me a book like yours about 25 years ago. I have learnt all the lessons in it the hard way.”
Overcoming Imposter Syndrome is available in .pdf format online at http://www.overcomingimpostersyndrome.com.
