SELF LEADERSHIP
Multidimensional construct comprised of SCT – individuals exercise control over
perosnla, environmental, and behavioural factors. ‘
SCT: emphasizes personal agency and reciprocal interactions btwn personal, enviro
and behavioural factors
5 basic capabilities in SCT:
1. Symbolizing: processing visual models into cognitive models that serve as a
guide for the future
2. Vicarious learning: learning by observing others actions
3. Self regulation: self control of actions by setting internal standards and
evaluating the discrepancy it and their own standards to improve
4. Self reflection: reflect on past actions using perceptions t determine the
strength of their beliefs so that they can achieve success in the future
5. Forethought: self determination though planning actions, anticipating
consequences, and determining the desired performance level
SYMBOLIZING AND VICARIOUS LEARNING = CONSTRUCTIVE STRATEGIES

and rewards
Constructive:

them based on thought processes
