It divides information about a person into four quadrants based on what is known to the person themselves and what is known by others: open area, blind area, hidden area, and unknown area. The goal of using the Johari Window is to enlarge the open area by disclosing more about oneself and incorporating feedback from others.

JOHARI WINDOW

PURPOSE
The Johari Window is a model that helps you do this, and it helps you learn important things about yourself, and so develop as a human being. In this article we'll look at how the Johari Window works, and we'll see how you can use it with your team to improve communication and trust.

WHAT IS JOHARI WINDOW


The Johari Window is a communication model that is used to improve understanding between individuals. The word "Johari" is taken from the names of Joseph Luft and Harry Ingham, who developed the model in 1955.
There are two key ideas behind the tool: 1. That you can build trust with others by disclosing information about yourself. 2. That, with the help of feedback from others, you can learn about yourself.

Explaining the Johari Window

THE FOUR QUADRANTS ARE:


1. Open Area (Quadrant 1) This quadrant represents the things that you know about yourself, and the things that others know about you. This includes your behavior, knowledge, skills, attitudes, and "public" history. 2. Blind Area (Quadrant 2) This quadrant represents things about you that you aren't aware of, but that are known by others.
3. Hidden Area (Quadrant 3) This quadrant represents things that you know about yourself, but that others don't know. 4. Unknown Area (Quadrant 4) This last quadrant represents things that are unknown by you, and are unknown by others.

The End Goal


Goal is to enlarge the Open Area As you share information, your Open Area expands vertically and your Hidden Area gets smaller. As people on your team provide feedback to you about what they know or see about you, your Open Area expands horizontally, and your Blind Area gets smaller.
