Hungarian term or phrase: Határtartás
 Önismeret
 Felelősségtudat
 Határtartás

This comes in a list of areas to be developed during a leadership training course, no further context.

Additional info from the client:

Any ideas?

In consultation with the client we eventually event for setting boundaries, as this came closest to the content of that particular part of the training. But this answer set us on the right track, thanks.

Leadership Traits
While the list of leadership traits can vary by whoever is drawing up the list, a recent study from Spain outlined behavioral traits that separated lower-level supervisors from higher-level supervisors. According to the researchers, the traits most commonly associated with great leadership include:

Intelligence and action-oriented judgment: Great leaders and smart and make choices that move the group forward.
Eagerness to accept responsibility: Strong leaders take on responsibility and don't pass the blame on to others. They stand by their success and take ownership of their mistakes.

https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Thomas_Gilmore4/publica...

Example sentence(s):
  • Leadership is centrally concerned with the management of boundaries.
  • A határtartás az arra való törekvés, hogy világosan lássuk, mekkora a teherbírásunk, mi fér bele az időnkbe, mit tolerálunk, pontosan mi a feladatunk, felelősségünk és döntési körünk.

maintaining boundaries / keeping boundaries


Explanation:
Véleményem szerint az adott kontextusban a HATÁR angol megfelelője BOUNDARY. Az alábbi összefoglaló jól illusztrálja, mire vonatkoztatható a kifejezés pszichológiai értelemben.

http://www.guidetopsychology.com/boundaries.htm

Részlet:
"By definition, a boundary is anything that marks a limit. Psychological limits define personal dignity. When we say, “You just crossed a line,” we are speaking about a psychological limit that marks the distinction between behavior that does not cause emotional harm and behavior that causes emotional harm."

Alternatíva lehet még a "keeping boundaries" fordítás, lásd:

Ha nagyon kell ragaszkodni a főnévi igenévhez, akkor a BOUNDARY MAINTENANCE is szóba jöhet, ld. magyar-angol szociológiai szótár:

határtartás - boundary maintenance
http://www.szociologia.hu/magyar-angol_szociologiai_szotar/i...

Ámbár szociológiai vonatkozásban "boundary maintenance: The ways in which societies (or social systems) maintain distinctions between themselves and others", ezért nem biztos, hogy angol nyelvű olvasónak ez lesz a legjobb variáns. Úgy érzem, a "maintaining boundaries" változat sokkal kifejezőbb.
