Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: 1. Self-awareness → Recognizing how your stress affects team interactions 2. Self-management → Controlling your frustration when a deadline is missed 3. Social awareness → Understanding a team member's unspoken concerns 4. Relationship management → Building trust and resolving conflicts effectively

Explanation

Self-awareness is recognizing your own emotions and their impact. Self-management is controlling your emotional responses. Social awareness is perceiving others' emotions and needs. Relationship management is using emotional understanding to build strong working relationships and navigate conflicts.

**Why not A:** This option swaps self-awareness with social awareness and relationship management with self-management. Understanding a team member's unspoken concerns is social awareness (perceiving others' emotions), not self-awareness. Building trust is relationship management, not self-management.

**Why not C:** This option incorrectly assigns relationship management (building trust and resolving conflicts) to self-awareness, and self-awareness (recognizing how your stress affects interactions) to relationship management. The first and fourth items are swapped.

**Why not D:** This option assigns self-management (controlling frustration) to self-awareness and social awareness (understanding others' concerns) to self-management. Self-awareness is about recognizing your own emotions, while self-management is about controlling your emotional responses.
