In this lesson, we will study the first two steps of Goleman’s four components of emotional intelligence, self-awareness, and self-management. As per Goleman, self-awareness is the building block of all other competencies. Without recognizing what you are feeling, you cannot proceed to other competencies. It helps you to handle your emotions in order to avoid its interference in work and use these emotions to facilitate and recover from emotional distress. Self-management flows from self-awareness. It helps to understand situations from others’ perspective and to cultivate relationships.

• Manage yourself through self-awareness 

• Establish self-control through self-management

You have to move quickly and analyze swiftly to capture the best candidates for your organization.       

This video discusses some pre-interview, interview, and post-interview guidelines that will help you design and develop a winning hiring process. We begin with what to do before you’ve even met your ideal candidate and progress all the way to planning for their successful post-hire on-boarding and retention.
