In today's environment, good communication skills are required at all levels. On the other hand, being in front
of a crowd audience may make you anxious. As a result, speaking in public may cause you to fumble over your
words, which may lead to feelings of fear or worry. Iverach and Rapee (2013) define social anxiety as an
overwhelming fear of being embarrassed and ashamed. That is why many individuals are afraid of public
speaking. However, there are certain situations that are unavoidable. Despite this, there are therapies for
social anxiety in individuals that have significant advantages for avoiding its occurrence following speech
therapy.
According to Sülter, R. et al. (2022), exposure therapy, which is a component of cognitive behavioral therapy,
is the traditional treatment for many forms of anxiety, such as stage fright. This explains why the patients in this
treatment are frequently exposed to events that lead them to experience bad feelings. As a result, it has been
proposed that increasing a person's number of recurrent exposures to the same stimuli may lead to a reduction
in anxiety. Craaske et al. (2014) discovered that the anxiety linked with adverse audience assessments
persists in terms of feeling socially apprehensive when public speaking and is not as bad as the participant had
anticipated.
To put it simply, we utilize communication regularly; thus, effective communication skills are required at all
levels. Particularly in public speaking. Although many people experience social anxiety when speaking in front
of an audience, there are several therapies available to assist people in minimizing their feelings of anxiety.
Due to this, both study findings emphasize the value of exposure therapy in gradually lessening the impact of
social anxiety on public speaking. Consequently, this demonstrates the effectiveness of these therapies in
alleviating the anticipated anxiety that individuals often encounter.
TITLE: Exploring and Improving: The Correlation Between Our Lady of Fatima University Students Social
Skills and Leadership.
The study of the crucial connection between emotional intelligence (EI) and leadership reveals a startling
reality: not everyone is born with the ability to lead due to a lack of emotional intelligence. According to
Mohammed Issah (2018), emotional intelligence plays an essential role in leadership. Whether it is to lead
something, overcome hurdles, or implement changes inside an organization, leading something involves a
lot of responsibility. Further, it is suggested that this is a set of emotions and social talents that a person
might use to express and be perceived. Therefore, it is obvious that emotional intelligence in leadership
skills is critical because developing these emotional and social qualities may help people build leaders
capable of navigating the complexities of modern organizational dynamics.
Considering components of emotional intelligence can help people develop a successful leadership style.
In accordance with Batool (2013), in the landmark Harvard Business Review article, emotional intelligence
comprises five components: self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy, and social skills.
Moreover, integrating these components with a thorough grasp of emotional intelligence may allow
leaders to connect more intimately with their teams on a fundamental level, which can lead to trust
amongst members and overall organizational success. Furthermore, these can aid a person's ability to
communicate effectively. Simply by enhancing these components, leaders can develop an environment of
open communication, share goals, and foster a culture that supports creativity and productivity.
To wrap this up, as stated, not everyone is born with the ability. However, it is undeniably apparent that
enhancing aspects of emotional intelligence would enable those in the vicinity of a 'leader' to interact with each
other openly and communicatively. In addition, it not only improves or enhances a leader's communication
abilities but also leads to a smoother and more efficient communication process. Therefore, it demonstrates
that emotional intelligence and leadership are interrelated. Since this demonstrates a strategy for becoming a
good leader with balance and efficacy.
