SELF AWARENESS
Public self-awareness: Being aware of how we can appear to others. Because of this
consciousness, we are more likely to adhere to social norms and behave in ways that
are socially acceptable.
While there are benefits to this type of awareness, there is also the danger of tipping
into self-consciousness. Those who are especially high in this trait may spend too
much time worrying about what others think of them.
Private self-awareness
Being able to notice and reflect on one’s internal state. Those who have private self-
awareness are introspective, approaching their feelings and reactions with curiosity.
When self-awareness tips into self-consciousness, we are reluctant to share certain
aspects of ourselves. We develop a persona that lacks authenticity. Noticing the
physical sensations and correctly attributing them to your anxiety about the meeting
would be an example of private self-awareness.
Why is self-awareness important?
People who are aware of how people see them are more likely to be empathetic to
people with different perspectives. Leaders whose self-perception matches others'
perceptions are more likely to empower, include, and recognize others.
We are able to recognize the effect that we have on others People with self-awareness
are happier and have better relationships. They also experience a sense of personal
and social control as well as higher job satisfaction.
