Adolescence (11-18 Years)
□ Psychosocial Crisis: Identity vs. Role Confusion
□ The adolescent is newly concerned with how they
appear to others
□ Ego identity
□ is the accrued confidence that the inner sameness and
continuity prepared in the past
□ are matched by the sameness and continuity of one's
meaning for others
□ as evidenced in the promise of a career
□ The inability to settle on a school or occupational identity
is disturbing.

Development is Asynchronous

in Children
A Child's Emotional, Physical, and
Intellectual Development
IS USUALLY UNEVEN

Child Development is
ASYNCHRONOUS

They are the same
CHRONOLOGICAL AGE

Challenges
□Asynchronous development refers to an
uneven intellectual, physical, and
emotional development.
□In children, these 3 aspects of
development do not necessarily
progress at about the same rate.

Challenges
□It can be frustrating and sometimes
confusing for parents and teachers
because these children don't always act
their chronological age intellectually,
□but then show typical emotional, social, and
physical behavior for children of their
chronological age.

How Asynchronous Development in
Children Work?
□ The higher a child's IQ is, the more out of sync his or her
development is likely to be.
□ A child who is years ahead of his or her age-mates is not
always years ahead emotionally or socially.
□ Advanced intellectual ability simply does not enable a
child to manage emotions any better than any other child.

How Asynchronous Development in
Children Work
□ While it is possible for a
child to be advanced in all
areas of development, it
isn't expected.
□ Eventually, the development
evens out, almost always by
sometime during the early
teen years.

□is uneven and can cause
some real problems for
children and their teachers.
□These problems are worse
for the children when their
teachers don't understand
this developmental pattern.

Some Children
□ often feel like misfits, particularly
when they are in classes with
different children
□ It's important not only to pay
attention to a child's intellectual
development but her social and
physical development as well.

Emotional Control
□ Expectations for children with asynchronous development
can be both unrealistic and unfair.
□ A 12-year-old who can discuss the theories of dinosaur
extinction or devise strategies to help the homeless is still
a 12-year-old.
□ That means that this child can become emotionally
upset just as any other 12-year-old.

Emotional Control
□because the child is
intellectually advanced,
thinking and talking like a
much older child,
□some adults may mistakenly
expect him to have the
emotional control of an older
child.

Parents and Teachers
□ It's crucial to recognize that a child's emotional and
social development will not always match his or her
intellectual development.
□ Before responding to a child's emotional outburst or
concluding that a child is socially or emotionally
immature, stop a moment to remind yourself of the
child's chronological age.
□ The behavior may be totally in line with what one
expects from children of similar age.

Physical Development
□Another challenge of gifted children is that
their physical development may not be as
advanced as their intellectual development,
but is advancing as expected for their age.

For example,
□ an intellectually advanced child is
able to evaluate the work that she
does and compare it to the work of
adults.
□ She can visualize a completed picture
in her mind, but her fine motor skills
may be insufficiently developed to
allow her to draw or paint it.

For example,
□ She will get upset when she sees
that her work does not measure up
to the work of adults.
□ She doesn't understand that the
issue is that her physical
development has not reached
the level that would allow her to
do the kind of work she
imagines.

Mind - Body Synchrony
□ When a teacher and parent
understand asynchronous
development,
□ they can support their child and
help the child understand that
their muscles simply aren't ready
to do what their minds want them
to do.

What Can Teachers and
Parents Do?
□Nothing can be done to
change the way children
develop
□so asynchronous development
can't be corrected or altered.
□However, life can be made
easier when you understand that
development.

Some Quick Tips:
□Recognize that a child’s emotional and social
development will not always match his or her
intellectual development.
□Before responding to your child's emotional
outburst or concluding that your child is socially
or emotionally immature,
□stop a moment to remind yourself of your child's
chronological age.

Some quick tips:
□Understand that asynchronous
development creates special
needs.
□For example, intellectually advanced
children need emotional support as
do all children, but they also need
advanced intellectual stimulation.

Recognize that
□children may not get their
emotional, social, and
intellectual needs met by the
same peers.
□You need to guide them.
□Parents should make every
effort to provide these
opportunities.

COMMUNICATION

Communication

Communication is
a huge umbrella that covers and affects all than goes
on between human beings

Communication is
the single most significant factor that
determines the kind of relationships we
have and what happens to us

Communication
is The Life Blood of
The Team
Timely and Accurate
• People who have learned to
support and trust one
another share what they
know freely
• Pass on the information that
members need to operate
more effectively

Communication & Conflict

This talk/listen cycle helps
to keep BP evenly regulated
• When we speak our blood
pressure goes up
• When we are listening attentively
in a relaxed manner, blood
pressure usually falls
• Heart rate slows - below resting
level

In periods of great stress
• communicating with others that pull us through
• renewing inner strength
• lifting our vision
• reaffirming the meaning of life

• trustworthy
• likeable
• represent warmth
• represent comfort
• represent safety
For the message to get
through people must
believe that you are
68

This happens without words
We plug into
thousands of
preconscious cues.

The Eyes Have It!!
IN JUST ONE GLANCE:
Adults make trait judgments
after viewing faces
for only 100ms.
Some of the traits we spontaneously
attribute to strangers based solely
on their face includes –
intelligence, honesty, dominance,
competence, trustworthiness, and
likability. 70

Eye Communication
oYour #1 skill
o BELIEVABILITY
• verbal - 7%
• vocal - 38%
• visual - 55%
oconnects mind to mind

The benefits of
Good Eye Communication...
oConnects First Brain to First Brain
oUse involvement in business/social
•5 to 7 seconds of eye contact

The First Brain:
The Non-reasoning, Non-rational Part
• Seat of human emotion
• The brain stem
–Provide immediate
instinctual response
• Limbic system
–The emotional centre

The New Brain: The cerebral cortex
Seat of conscious thought
• Memory
• Language
• Creativity
• Decision making

To Get To The New Brain
•The message
must first pass
through the
first brain

78
EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION…
• is based on emotional impact
• we must be believed to have
impact
• ALL FIRST BRAIN
LIKABILITY IS THE SHORTEST
PATH
TO BELIEVABILITY AND TRUST

Good communications
means
• expressing yourself clearly
through verbal and non-
verbal language;
• listening so that you
understand what others are
saying

We spend
between 50%
and 80% of our
waking hours
communicating
HOW MUCH TIME
DO YOU SPEND
COMMUNICATING?

 You cannot change the
people around you....
 But you can change the
people you are around!

Identify who really
cares about you
Allocate your time
accordingly

 Improving these
relationships can only lead
to greater
Happiness & success
 and a greater sense of
reward.

 1. Define Success
 How much is enough?
 without some kind of yardstick
it’s difficult to know how well we
are doing or where we really
want to be
 One thing is for sure, money is not the
same as success!

 Working in an environment
unable to manage things the
way we would like is stressful
 Someone else is pulling all
the strings
 Over time
 reduce as many of these
elements as possible

 Take on ‘stretch’ tasks
 get you thinking outside your
usual frame of reference
 This is how you grow

 Try to learn 1 new
technological thing each
month
 Start with your cell phone
 It’s only a matter of time
before many become
useful

 Clear-out some of those
existing preconceptions,
activities, outdated
knowledge, (and people)
 to create space for new things
 If you do not let go and open
your hands
 you can’t get more and new
experiences

If you don’t
challenge your
present
behavioural traits,
You will not grow

 As your careers evolve, so do
the things that make us happy
and more fulfilled
 Finding the tasks that improve
your self-esteem and
confidence is a continual
moving goal, needing to be
tracked

 Evaluate people you deal with by their results only
not how long they spend at their desk
or how quickly they get in contact

 All the things
that you do not
enjoy and are
able to.

 Try to spend more
time with people who
are positive, get
things done and open
to change

Does the incessant
checking of emails and
social media add to
productivity or just
pointless stress?

 If you tend to say yes
without thinking when
you’re asked to do
something extra work
related, stall.
 Say you’ll get back to the
person asking, then use that
time to think clearly about
whether to say yes or no.

Work smart, not long.
This involves tight
prioritization

 if you do happen to take
work home with you, try
to confine it to a certain
area of your home – and
be able to close the door
on it.

Don’t put extra
pressure on
yourself when you
don’t need to – at
work or at home.

The reason most
people are martyrs is
that they want the
approval of others.
IFYOU DROP DEAD
TODAY…..

 Make it clear to your
colleagues that you will reply
to emails within 24 hours.
 However, texting is based on
different parameters – to
send a text is to expect a
quick, even immediate reply.
 Fear not, remember point
12 - just say no.

 they neither toil nor spin;
 yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like
