Assignment: Self-Management
Competency
Create individual strategies for self-management.
Scenario
You are a newly promoted manager for one of the business units in your organization. As such, you need to consider how to manage yourself before you can really manage others. You need to think about what your personal and professional stress levels are--what might be the breaking points between succeeding and failing? How can I manage that stress? What emotions come to light that could be viewed as positive or negative? How else can I get my message across?
