Self Awareness and Emotional Intelligence
According
to Kight (2014: 17) the level of self-awareness is related to the level of
influence and performance: The more self-aware a leader is, the more
influential she is and the better her followers perform. As Daniel Goleman, a
thought leader in the area of emotional intelligence, explains in his book Primal Leadership, leaders high in emotional
self-awareness are attune to their inner signals, recognizing how their
feelings affect them and their job performance. Leaders with high
self-awareness typically know their strengths and limitations and exhibit a
gracefulness in learning where they need to improve.
Okpara &
Edwin (2015: 53)self-awareness
consists of emotional
abilities that enable
us to be
more effective and
form outstanding relationships in the work place. Self awareness is the
ability for one to recognize his or her
emotions and their
effects. Studies suggest
that people who
are aware of
their emotions are more
effective in their
jobs. They recognize
and understand their
moods, emotions, needs, can
perceive and anticipate
how their actions
affect others. People with
great certainty about
their feelings manage
their lives well
and are able
to direct their positive feelings
towards accomplishing tasks.
Self awareness competencies
include emotional self awareness,
accurate self awareness
and self confidence.
Gill (2014: 87) explain the first key aspect of emotional intelligence relates to
self-awareness, which alludes to the ability to recognize and understand your
moods, emotions, and drives, as well as their effect on others.
Self-awareness is important because awareness of own
emotions should regulate thinking processes. In exploring life skills,
tutorials the contain a range of material related to well being and mental
health. Therefore, to raise self-awareness practitioners could for example,
introduce a video of mental health. Arguably, with student engagement it can be
postulate that awareness can be raise as reflective practice is form through
interpretation of the mental health video.
