When you’re sat at your professional office desk, do you always feel in control? Do you always know what you’re doing, feel completely safe in your knowledge, and know that any phone call that comes your way, you can ace it within seconds?
Of course you don’t. Life is never that simple!
You can be fantastic at your job, but there will always be challenges and firsts that come your way. In addition, you might be someone who has a whole host of talent and someone who has huge potential, but your confidence levels are holding you back.
Maybe you’re shy and you find it hard to collaborate.
The key? Fake it.
Check out this useful video for hints on how to fake confidence in the workplace, and in life in general.
Whether you’re sat around the conference room furniture in a hugely important meeting, or you’re holding a quick collaborative session on the office sofa, faking confidence can be done and over time it will lead towards genuine confidence too.
