EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE MASTERCLASS PART 3: SOCIAL AWARENESS
Several months ago, I encountered a setback in my business ventures. During a candid conversation with a leadership colleague, as I unraveled the details, I noticed his unwavering attention and genuine interest. To my surprise, later that evening, he reached out with an uplifting text message. Reflecting on his thoughtful gesture while sitting on my bed, I couldn’t help but appreciate his genuine concern, timely follow-up, and empathetic response.
Having explored self-awareness in our first week and delved into the significance of self-management last week, let’s now direct our attention to the crucial leadership competency of social awareness.
