Self-awareness is about recognizing and understanding own emotions and their effects on others,
knowing own strengths and limits, being sure about self-worth and capabilities.
Self-management is about self-control, managing own moods, adaptability and transformation.
Social awareness/ Empathy is about understanding how other people are feeling and recognizing, on
an intimate level, how you would feel if you were in their position. It does not mean you sympathize
with, validate, or accept their behaviour, but just that you can see things from their perspective and
feel what they feel.
Social management is about managing relationships, building networks, working with others toward
shared goals, interacting socially with one another and to successfully navigating social situations.
