get things done or improve the way certain

leadership style has its basis in a form of
heroism. This leadership style is almost of
divine origin.

 Johari Window model
• The Johari Window model is a simple and
useful tool for improving self-awareness, and
mutual understanding between individuals
within a group.

to assess and improve a group's relationship
with other groups.
 Founder

American psychologists Joseph Luft and Harry
Ingham in 1955
 region 1
• Johari region 1 is also known as the 'area of
free activity'. This is the information about the
person - behaviour, attitude,feelings, emotion,
knowledge, experience, skills, views, etc -
• known by the person ('the self') and known
by the group
• ('others').
 region 2
• Johari region 2 is what is known about a
person by others in the group, but is
unknown by the person him/herself
 region 3
• what is known to ourselves but kept hidden
from, and therefore unknown to others.

• abilities, aptitudes, experiences etc, that are
unknown to the person him/herself and
unknown to others in the group.
 Draw backs

they received further then we desire.
2.• Some people may react negatively.
3• Using johari window is useless exercise if it is
not linked tocorrect negative behavior.
• 4• Some people are not interested to give
personal feedback
