SOCIAL AWARENESS Social awareness alludes to an individual's understanding of how to achieve social competence. It implies to the ability to understand people, and to understand how to act within social events. Social awareness, therefore, underlies the competent use of social skills. Social awareness consists of sensitivity, insight and communication. Sensitivity is the ability to perceive social nuances; Insight is the ability to interpret social situations, to read people and to understand verbal and nonverbal social cues; Communication is the ability to act, based on sensitivity and insight.

Three main conditions for team success.
LEADERS OF OUTSTANDING TEAMS PULL TOGETHER CONDITIONS NECESSARY FOR TEAM SUCCESS... Three main conditions for team success. DEVELOPMENT DIRECTION STRUCTURE PEOPLE LEADERSHIP SUPPORT RESULTS CONDITIONS If leaders of outstanding teams don’t focus on the same things as more charismatic organizational leaders, what do they focus on? Our findings pinpointed five key conditions which support team effectiveness. The three conditions in the center of the graphic---direction, structure, and people---must be focused on when launching (or re-motivating) a team. The supporting conditions (support and development) keep a team functioning at the peak of performance. Leaders of outstanding teams monitor and manage all five of these conditions, obtaining outstanding results by these efforts.

THE OUTSTANDING LEADER’S MANAGERIAL STYLES...
Typical Poor 100% 90 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 10 77 29 24 29 61 74 69 64 51 43 56 63 8 41 60 12 46 54 As this data clearly shows, leaders of outstanding teams rely more on the Democratic, Coaching, Authoritative and Affiliative styles than do leaders of typical and poor teams. These styles encourage dialogue within the team, opening the team to the strengths of all its members, rather than relying on the leader alone. As we discussed earlier, leaders of outstanding teams behave differently than outstanding leaders. This is borne out in the style data. Interestingly, the Affiliative and Democratic style are more important here than what we typically see for outstanding leaders; conversely the Authoritative style is typically higher for outstanding leaders than seen here. Leaders of poor teams, on the other hand, rely much more on Coercive and Pacesetting as dominant styles, styles which can shut the team down.

MYTHS ABOUT EI... There is no place for emotions in life; facts are more solid EI involves telling everyone how you feel all of the time We should only focus on positive emotions, not negative ones EI is just another soft skills fad with nothing new to offer SOURCE: Louise Hart
