Abstract

Employees perceived a very high level of interpersonal competence from competence factors. Managing interpersonal conflict gave the highest level of interpersonal competence while asserting disclosure with others gave the least competence. Analysis of variance however showed no significant difference among the levels of competence. The skills factors gave the high level of social skills to the employees. Emotional expressivity gave the highest level of skills while the social expressivity gave the least skill of the respondents. Analysis of variance on the data showed that there was no significant difference on the effect of the skills factors tested to the social skills of the employees.
