Module Overview

How to Get the Best out of Yourself

It is never too late to get the best out of yourself. You have to visualise yourself doing the best work. Let go of the chaos in your mind and ask yourself how it is that you can achieve your goals.

Developing Self-Awareness

Not everyone is self-aware. It is often a trait that you must train yourself to attain. Keep an open mind, be mindful of your strengths and weaknesses and set boundaries. Self-awareness is your capacity to understand, be aware and relate. If you’re a manager, self-awareness is having good emotional intelligence and knowing when to use it.

Recognise and Deal with Stress

Stress in the workplace is the #1 stress that employees often complain about. How do you recognise and work to reduce it? You can make some changes within yourself, and adopt strategies to manage and reduce stress levels. Not all stress is harmful, however, when it starts to affect your health and well-being along with decision-making skills, it is time to address the issue.
