Social awareness is a skill that can be learned, by making few changes in the way you connect, communicate and listen to people. Here are some tips that you can follow to become a better socially aware person.
1. Become an excellent listener 0:42
Listening and observing are the most important elements of social awareness. It takes practice to really watch people as you interact with them and get a good sense of what they are thinking and feeling. And active listening is a practice that can help you to understand people, their thoughts, emotions and intentions.
2. Be Understanding and empathetic 2:50
Empathy is a next level of active listening. The etymological origin of empathy is from a Greek word that means ‘feeling into’. “Feeling into”, is using all your five senses and your sixth sense, your emotional intelligence, to read the thoughts, emotions and actions of another person or persons.
3. Be non-judgmental and be accommodative 8:03
To develop social awareness, you need to see people as they are without filters, prejudices and assumptions. You don’t need to be accurate about everyone, because you can misread people if ever you try to judge them.
4. Be a keen observant of people

Other areas of social intelligence that we need to develop to improve are our manners and our social etiquette include making a good first impression, greeting people by their name, catching the mood of the occasion, knowing what to say and what not to say.
Social awareness is a skill that you can develop if you value other people as much as you value yourself. The way you showcase that value to others is by listening, showing empathy and understanding others point views so that people can work together as teams and live together as families and communities.
