ABSTRACT
Flowing from the research in social learning and behavior is a concept called self-efficacy. In the introduction, I mentioned self-efficacy as arguably the most important foundational component for enabling a culture of continuous improvement. Self-efficacy is the level of confidence a person feels about his or her ability to do a particular task. Unlike self-confidence or self-esteem however, which are more generic feelings of confidence and worth, self-efficacy is task-specific, which makes it particularly relevant for workplaces and for leaders.
