What are self-management skills?Show answer
Self-management skills let a person take control of their own behaviour. Decision making is the ability to weigh options, consequences and values to choose a course of action. Goal setting turns an intention into specific, realistic and measurable steps, which sustains motivation. Self-regulation and self-monitoring involve tracking behaviour and adjusting it, for example noticing triggers and changing the response.
What are interpersonal skills?Show answer
Interpersonal skills govern how a person interacts with others to protect their health. Communication, including active listening and clear expression, lets a person state needs and understand others. Assertiveness is expressing one's own needs and boundaries respectfully without being passive or aggressive. Refusal skills let a person say no to unwanted pressure while keeping the relationship intact.
