· Empathy

· Emotional self-control

· Positivity

· Adaptability

You can develop the evaluation however you choose, namely multiple-choice questions, true or false, respond to the scenario etc. You will be using this criterion to analyse yourself and you may choose to develop a soft or hard copy evaluation or you may like to use an online tool. You must also develop some way to measure the results, for example, a point system for multiple choice.

Complete the review yourself and add it in the space provided below:

3. Review and feedback

Document

Document your findings from the activity step above and discuss the results with two other people – these may be classmates you know well or family and friends. Using the space provided below, ask them to give you feedback(what they believe your emotional strengths and weaknesses are) and take notes so you can include their analysis in your personality test review.

Student name:

Feedback participant 1 (name and contact number)

Feedback participant 2 (name and contact number)

Now, answer all of the questions below using the results of your evaluation to guide your answers.

Each question should be answered in approximately a paragraph and be professionally written in a way that clearly explains your concepts and ideas in a logical and cohesive manner.

a) Document your findings on yourself in the four areas focussed on in your evaluation as discuss your strongest area.

b) Reflecting on the results, identify what stood out for you in terms of what it tells you about yourself as a person.

c) Thinking about the questions asked as part of the evaluation and your learnings as part of this unit, identify five of your emotional strengths.

d) Thinking about the questions asked as part of the evaluation and your learning as part of this unit, identify five of your emotional weaknesses.

e) Explain how you believe the emotional strengths you have identified above help your workplace performance and relationships.

f) Discuss how you believe your emotional weaknesses hinder your workplace performance and relationships.

g) Complete the following table about personal stressors at work. Identify at least four sources of stress that are most likely to result in workplace stress for you, your stress response (emotional, physical, behavioural) and actions that you can take (or have taken) to manage stress.

The table includes examples only, as there could be a wide range of responses from students.

Personal stressor

What is your stress response

Actions/methods to address

h) Review the following list of needs and choose at least three that most trigger your emotions when you don’t get these needs met. Consider this question in the context of the workplace.

· Acceptance

· Being understood

· Being in control

· Attention

· Comfort

· Balance

· Variety

· Predictability

· New challenges

· Being loved/liked

· Being valued

Now complete the table below.

Write down each need you have chosen and why this need is important to you at work.

Also give an outline of the emotions triggered in you when you don’t get these needs met and ways that you can control your emotions in the face of not having your needs met.

The table includes examples only, as there could be a wide range of responses from students.

Need and why this need is important to you at work

What is your emotional response when this need is not met?

Emotional control mechanism

i) What other criteria could you use other than those you created in your evaluation to determine your own emotional strengths and weaknesses?

4. Round table discussion

Chat

In a group round-table style discussion with a student group of approximately four or five, you will analyse the results of your emotional intelligence assessment with others and share ideas on ways to improve your emotional intelligence and also how this can contribute towards the team goals and objectives of the business. The group will also share stories of their own personal culture and its characteristics, and any experiences they would like to share (positive or negative).

Each person will have a turn (10 minutes per person) to talk about:

· Personal characteristics in relation to emotional intelligence, as set out in the personality test results.

· Personal stressors, resulting emotions and actions to control emotional responses.

· Own emotional response to unmet needs and effective strategies to control emotional responses.

· Emotional triggers in the workplace and an analysis of how this can make you react (negatively) or respond (appropriately).

Then, with your group participants, share and discuss strategies for improving your emotional intelligence based on the reviews you have made in your portfolio and discuss the methods for responding to personal stressors and how likely they are to work. Make sure you take notes on strategies brainstormed for yourself and for at least two of the other participants as you are going to have to develop individual and team plans in later steps. This part of the discussion must run for at least 30 minutes and not more than one hour.

Your assessor will be looking to see that you can:

· respond appropriately to the emotional states and cues of others

· create an inclusive atmosphere by way of speech and interaction

· demonstrate consideration, empathy and acknowledgement of others’ feelings and perspectives

· create opportunities for others in the group to express themselves: their ideas, thoughts and feelings

· evaluate impacts of specific situations discussed and the impact of reacting versus responding

· demonstrate effective communication skills including:

· Speaking clearly and concisely

· Using non-verbal communication to assist with understanding

· Asking questions to identify required information

· Responding to questions as required

· Using active listening techniques to confirm understanding

This can either be viewed in person by your assessor or you may like to video record the session for your assessor to watch later. Your assessor can provide you with more details at this step. Make sure you follow the instructions above and meet the timeframes allocated.

5. Develop a personal emotional intelligence development plan

Person eating

After the round table, using the feedback from your group as well as the results from your evaluation, plan how you are going to improve your own emotional intelligence. Your emotional intelligence development plan should include at least 5 actions you could take to improve your ability to identify and respond appropriately to a range of expressions of emotions. Keep this plan private for now and do not share with the rest of your group.

Based on the identified areas for improvement and/or gaps, list at least five activities that should improve your ability to identify and respond appropriately to a range of emotional expressions through self-reflection and feedback from others.

Enter the activities in order of priority.

Identified area of emotional intelligence development

Briefly describe why you have identified this as a priority

6. Develop a team emotional intelligence development plan

Person eating

Assume you are the team leader for the group that you were in for the round table discussion. Select two members from this group to develop planning for. Use the portfolio secretion provided below to develop these plans based on the information you learned during the round table discussion. Ensure that actions will help this team member to meet the organisational and team goals. You will develop these plans on your own based from your observations during the round table and not in discussion with your team members. You have to complete one of these activities planned so make sure it’s something realistic that can be completed in the classroom.

Complete the following tables for two team members after the roundtable discussion in the role of their team leader or manager.

Team member 1:

Summary of this person as per their personality profile discussed at the round table (emotional responses, beliefs, identified strengths and weaknesses):

How can you create opportunities for this person to express their thoughts and feelings in the work team that best suits them?

How can you show consideration to this person when making decisions that affect them as their team leader?

Meet individually with the two team members as if you were their manager and discuss the plan in a positive manner that highlights the actions and benefits to themselves and their team. Explain your decisions about actions that will help them to achieve their goals. The meeting should last for at least 15 minutes each and no more than 30 minutes.

Your assessor will be looking to see that you can:

· respond appropriately to the emotional states and cues of your team members by being flexible and adaptable, modifying your approach as relevant

· create an inclusive atmosphere by way of speech and interaction

· demonstrate consideration, empathy and acknowledgement of their feelings and perspectives

· create opportunities to express themselves: their ideas, thoughts and feelings about your plans

8. Implement planning to achieve two different work tasks

Person eating

Based on your planning and the meetings with your team members, it’s now up to you and your team to implement an aspect of the planning in order to enhance the team’s performance and complete two work tasks. This could include completing a professional development session together, a trust or team building activity or the development of something for the business that helps to achieve a team or organisational goal. Make sure you adhere to the professional development policy and procedures.

The two tasks must be different, for example, you cannot complete two team building activities.

Summarise this information in your portfolio and attach the policy.

Answer the following reflective questions:

Which two tasks did you complete? Note, they must be different.

E.g. Working on a Marketing Campaign

Playing soccer

Task 1

Outline details of the activity you completed together.

How did this activity help the team to achieve team goals?

How did you model behaviours that demonstrate your emotional intelligence during this task? Provide at least two examples.

How did this activity align with the policy/procedures of the business?

How did both of your team members contribute towards the team goal in an individual capacity?
