Social Awareness-3
Social Awareness-3
Social Awareness Of Nonverbal Signals
Eye contact -- Never underestimate the power of this simple part of the social signals you are sending
and receiving all of the time. Basically, just do it. Avoiding eye contact is a powerful rejection signal that
never communicates anything positive.

Facial expression -- The research is clear that the expression on


your face carries a huge amount of information.
The best idea is to smile.
It benefits you personally, and it makes others much more
likely to trust you.

Posture and position -- Side by side says, "We're going in the same direction. We're in this together,"
whereas face to face is sometimes perceived as confrontational. Knowing this is a good way to avoid
conflict. An erect posture is good for you and all of your interactions, not to mention your overall health
and well being.

Touch -- Be aware, be sensitive, and be careful...but don't let that stop you from touching other people
appropriately. Handshakes and hugs are generally safe, depending on the relationship. We need touch,
and when you're using this powerful nonverbal signal, you're meeting a very basic need
Social Awareness-3
• The Importance Of A Positive Social Perspective
A positive social awareness will lower your stress level, and
greatly increase your ability
to form healthy connections with other people.

• Humanity -- As human beings, we are getting better, Contrary to what mainstream media presents,
there are far more kind, wise good souls on this planet than most realize. An optimistic view of
humanity will serve you well in every aspect of your life.

• Assume the best -- When you hold others in the highest possible regard, you are rising to a higher
level of consciousness within yourself. And, you're more likely to see the best coming from others,
when you're focusing on it and looking for it as a proficient Good finder.

• Recognize value -- If you are looking for value, you will find it. And the more you practice this, the
more skilled you will become. Appreciation is all about increasing value, so the best way to add value
in your social awareness is through the art of appreciation.

• Seek connection -- As human beings, we are all about making connections. We have far more in
common than you might think when looking at our differences. Look for common ground, and you'll
find it. The more connected you are to other people, the smarter and healthier you will be.
Social Awareness-3
• Building Social Awareness Of Basic Needs
To love and be loved -- This is the core of our humanity, and the strongest of all of our basic
needs. Be aware of this need in yourself, and that gives you an excellent starting point in
approaching others. Set your intention to communicate love in all you do.

• To be affirmed -- Although it is more obvious in some than others, we are all seeking affirmation
and validation on some level, all of the time. When you master the skill of affirming yourself and
others with integrity and authenticity, you will be successful at many different levels.
• To be recognized -- Acknowledgment and recognition are some of the most basic needs we have
as human beings. Smiles, greetings and touch, followed by verbal acknowledgment and
recognition can do wonders to strengthen connections with others, and enhance your
relationships.

• To be entertained -- Develop your sense of humor and your storytelling skills. When you can
provide entertainment along with serious communication, others will hear and remember much
more of what you have to say.
Always keep a positive perspective, which will help you keep going, while the cynics and
pessimists are watching from the sidelines.
Keep in mind that we need connection with each other. Develop a clear vision of yourself as you
would like to be socially and in all of your relationships, and step eagerly into that bright future
Social Awareness-3
• Social Games And Integrity
Playing games and acting with integrity are basically opposite ends of the
social spectrum. Games are based in deceit and hidden agendas, while
integrity brings authenticity, transparency and reliability.
• V-P-R triangle -- This is in many ways the most common game around,
sometimes referred to as the Karpman Drama Triangle. Nobody wins, and
everybody plays all of the positions, as you can see in the diagram below.
Social Awareness-3
• Social Games And Integrity
• Hidden agendas -- Everybody has them.
This is natural, and when you look closely at the basic needs described
above, you'll understand what I mean. We all want love and recognition, but
of course we're not going to tell anyone about that. Your focus needs to be on
your own integrity, and let others do their own thing.
• Trust your gut feeling -- You just can't know everything. Learn all you can,
and develop the highest possible social awareness. Then leave the rest up
to your intuition...your gut feeling about who to connect with, where to
set boundaries, and when to let go and have a good time.
• Look for integrity -- Integrity means that words, actions and feelings are in
sync. Start with your own, and work toward personal integration. Then
seek out relationships with people where you sense a high level of
honesty and authenticity, where you get a sense of a solid individual. This
is the basis for all healthy relationships.

and learn like a human.

• Some of the most common applications of AI include:


1. Speech and emotion recognition
2. Fraud detection
3. Predicting consumer behavior
4. Autonomous vehicles

sad themselves.

are driven by a range of factors, including personal values, goals, and experiences

appealing to the emotions of staff and clients. A machine can't achieve such
