The Importance of Personal Effectiveness Training in University Master Courses: The Role of High School in Students' Assertiveness and Self-Awareness Development
Carol Leroy (Université de Lille, France)
DOI: 10.4018/978-1-7998-1238-8.ch006
Abstract
For the team manager function, building the required posture of assertiveness and self-construction requires identity conversions that cannot be achieved without reflexivity, nor philosophical spirituality. Self-reflection allows the construction of one's own trajectory, and the possibility of a positive encounter between one's own dynamics and that of others. This new professional posture questions the role of initial training through all the aspects that must guarantee the success of student socio-professional integration and give the opportunity of implementing the expected skills on a job start. This chapter describes the possible modalities of personal efficiency learning at university by describing the construction of a pedagogical course mixing competency approach and program approach within a work-integrated learning.
