watch: how the editor of Vogue used imposter syndrome to his advantage

Is there an advantage to having imposter syndrome?

Even at 51 and with an incredible career at Vogue, ID and W Magazine, Editor of Vogue Edward Enninful still experienes imposter syndrome and cites that it propels him. He always asks "how can I do this better?" and recognises imposter syndrome as a major contributer to his success.
