Transforming Conflict into Growth:
Cognitive Competencies: Self-Awareness
Specific Competence: Positive self-evaluation - Maintaining a positive view of oneself and one's abilities.
Statement: Positive self-evaluation involves recognising and affirming your strengths and abilities while maintaining a realistic view of areas for improvement. This skill is crucial for building self-esteem and resilience.
Part A: Start By Yourself
Objective: Develop positive self-evaluation by recognising and affirming your strengths and abilities.
Instructions:
A) Start by Yourself:
- Take a moment in silence with a pen and paper. Write down three things you like about yourself. These can be personality traits, skills, or accomplishments.
- Reflect on how these positive attributes have helped you in different areas of your life. Consider how they contribute to your personal and professional success.
- Use the strengths you identified in Competency 1 and the critical thinking skills from Competency 2 to further affirm your positive qualities. Think about how these strengths support your positive self-evaluation.
B) Take It Further:
- Keep a daily or weekly journal where you note down positive feedback you receive, achievements, and moments you felt proud of yourself. This helps reinforce a positive self-view over time.
Tips:
- Be honest and specific in your reflections.
- Focus on positive affirmations and avoid self-criticism during this exercise.

- Provide positive feedback to each other. Highlight the strengths and abilities you see in the other person and how they positively impact your relationship and their life.
B) Make It Fun:
- Turn it into a game: "Compliment Circle." Sit in a circle and take turns giving each other compliments. Focus on specific strengths and abilities you appreciate in each person.
- Create a "Positive Board" where everyone can write or draw things they like about themselves and others. Display it in a common area as a daily reminder of each person’s positive qualities.
Reflect Together:
- After the activity, reflect on how receiving and giving positive feedback made you feel. Discuss how you can continue to support each other in maintaining a positive self-view.

Subject: Thrive to Perform, Perform to Thrive – A Call to Build Learning and Working Cultures where Individuals Thrive, Professionals Stand Out and Organisations Perform. Dear Leaders and Changemakers, In a world where mental health challenges, emotional fatigue, and disengagement are becoming the norm, the question is no longer “Should we do something?” but “How fast can we impact?” After more than a decade spent researching the science of wellbeing, leadership, and performance and applying it across education, hospitality, and business, I founded Positive Performances to deliver what I believe every school and every organisation needs: 'A system where mental health promotion and leadership development go hand in hand' . From universities and vocational schools to corporate teams and executive boards, our mission is simple: ' To help people succeed without losing their minds or their health' . Why does this matter to you? Because whether you manage a university, lead a corporate team, oversee HR operations, or teach the next generation, your success depends on something invisible yet essential: the psychosocial competencies of yourself, your people, and your students . These 21 life skills, endorsed by the WHO, OECD, and leading academic institutions, are the foundation for unlocking motivation, performance, collaboration, and resilience . We believe they should be accessible to every learner, every educator, and every professional . They are what allow people to: Regulate emotions Make responsible decisions Collaborate effectively Cope with stress and adversity Lead with courage, purpose, and clarity They don’t just improve wellbeing. They drive engagement, retention, innovation, and performance. Don’t Know Where to Start? Start Here. Sometimes, the most powerful transformation begins with a conversation.
