What Is Emotional Support?
Apply emotional support deliberately to the situations in which that capability is relevant, with attention to the decisions, behaviours, or outputs that emotional support directly affects.
Why Does Emotional Support Matter?
Emotional Support matters when the outcome depends on doing more than the broad task itself; the specific capability described by emotional support can determine how accurately, clearly, efficiently, or appropriately the work is carried out.
What Does It Look Like?
Someone applying emotional support may:
- •uses emotional support deliberately rather than treating it as an automatic habit
- •checks the part of the result most affected by emotional support
- •adjusts the approach when the situation changes what emotional support requires
