Know thyself has been the go-to mantra since Ancient Greece. And for good reason: knowing what makes you tick helps you identify your strengths. It’s also a way to develop your personal brand and thus improve your capacity to work in a team. With increased self-knowledge, you’ll avoid being held back by mental blocks, such as “impostor syndrome”.
