Johari window Model-Improving Interpersonal Communication
For ppl who havent heard about this before , here is a brief note about it: Joseph Luft and Harry Ingham invented this model to improve the human interaction …in otherwords improve interpersonal communication skills…
As you see, in the picture there are four quadrants, the first quadrant “OPEN”, it indicates things which you know about urself and which others also know about you…feelings, impressions,needs , ambitions or desires etc…
In the second quadrant “BLIND”, things which are unknown to you, but which others might know about you or which they might have noticed about you , but unknown to you fall in this quadrant. For example, a person might have noticed that you use the word “actually” quite frequently during conversations, which you didnt observe. Or another example could be that you dont maintain eye contact when talking or you are not good listener. Few things which people might have noticed about you , but they might be hesistant to reveal them to you …but once they reveal, all those things move into the Quadrant I , since you and the other person also knows those things about you……
In the third quadrant “HIDDEN”, things which you know about yourself, but are unknown to rest..mostly kept as secret within yourself ….for example, you might have desires to do some stuff which you are not comfortable in revealing it to the public. One should be careful as what to be/can be revealed and to whom it can be revealed.
The last quadrant “UNKNOWN” talks about things which you and others dont know as well …..when the person is put into new situtations or given new challenges ..lot of new things/capabilities will be revealed and depending upon the information revealed..it can be moved into either Quadrant I or Quadrant III.
Corporations can use Johari window model to improve intergroup and intragroup communucation skills ….at a personal level, this helps in self improvement and
gives opp to work on things which otherwise would have remained as “blind” spots itself.
If you know certain things about me which lies in quadrant II, feel free to let me know ….
