2. SELF-AWARENESS AND CAPACITY RECOGNITION

Cases of application for the job market

C.

Lucas has difficulty completing management
reports on time and notices a large disparity
in the quality of work between himself and his

co-workers. This is because he has had to
write this type of report before and it is

difficult to structure and develop the story.

Lucas noticed this and started meeting with his manager to get some insight and

tips on how to better write and present the information. His manager suggests a
coaching program for Lucas to improve his skills in writing reports and other
company documents.

This will help significantly improve performance in this area.

The key takeaway is that recognizing own limits and weaknesses must be
embraced in order to produce decisions that will result in improvement and

changes. Denying shortcomings won’t lead to anything positive.
