If job performance were based purely on competence, all you would need to do is pass a test indicating certain knowledge, and that would be it.

But people are part of groups, work in one-to-one relationships with colleagues, subordinates, and supervisors, and are members of larger organizations.

Contact with others is virtually inevitable.

Some Challenges We May Encounter Include:

· Feelings of inadequacy

· Receiving feedback defensively

· Inflated or lower self image

· Volatility

· Losing peoples support and loyalty

· Ignoring conflict

· Easily bored

Developing Skill and Knowledge Means:

· Competence

· Integrity

· Self-awareness

· Authentic leadership

· Develop collaborative relationships

· Ability to solicit feedback

· Confronting conflict

The competent individual is not necessarily the one who has all of these skills perfected, but the one who is open to exploration and insight in each of these dimensions… the one who is struggling to learn about themselves and allows those gifts, strengths, and forces that lie within to be released.
