· a link to your e-portfolio, Emotional intelligence Micro credential badge and LinkedIn profile
· clearly explain how you would function as a manager and why
· suggest strategies for how you could demonstrate empathy to people that you manage

1.
Rationale: Why is this important?
The contemporary workplace requires managers and leaders who are strong communicators, effective networkers, and reflective learners. When you apply for jobs while studying, or at the completion of your studies, you will need to talk about the skills you have, highlight your strengths, and demonstrate awareness of growth areas.
Managers need to organise and manage information, to lead and motivate others while developing positive relationships. Reflective managers and leaders also understand their strengths and actively look for opportunities to develop their skills and knowledge, through understanding how they like to be managed themselves.
