Johari Window Model

The Johari Window Model is an excellent tool to increase self-awareness and for personal development. I use my own example to illustrate the four squares or windows in the Johari model.
The Johari Window model was developed by Joseph Luft and Harrington Ingham in 1955. You'll see it still used today in most interpersonal communication classes and other textbooks on relationship development.

How did you get information about your blind spot

[@rakenzie]

I can not stress enough how helpful this video was in completing an I assignment I had recently. Thanks!

[@alexanderlyon]

I'm so glad!

[@houmanmanoochehri245]

The description of the model is simple and straight! It is appreciable. Thanks to the developer.

[@jimmyaujla2145]

Tomorrow is my organization behaviour exam and I think that johari model is important but I don't get any idea from notes .. thanks to your video sir .. I got it very well now I can do it easily ...

[@naseermak4357]

Checked so many videos on this topic but this one is the best

[@user-gv1fl7hp1i]

I use this approach with actors to establish deeper parts of their characters. This texhnique can have sp many different uses! Thank you so much for this insightful video - great explanation with examples and opportunities to journal for each 'window'.

[@natebrown4939]

It’s crazy running back into your channel years later looking for an explanation of this model after I stumbled across your concise communication course in 2019. That communication course has affected me in known and unknown ways and I’m really grateful for you. Back then I had just got a new job and a senior of mine always complained about people not being concise. I went to TH-cam to learn how to be more concise and your playlist was the most helpful thing. Thank you!

[@alexanderlyon]

Hi, Nate. I love it when people report back about their experiences. I'm glad my videos have been helpful. Thanks for the positive feedback.

[@theschoolofbodylanguage]

How amazing 👏, I will use it on my next team coaching seminar 🎉🎉🎉 Thank you Professor

[@yarraexpressllc8431]

[@crescencemiller8608]

Wow the model is so simple & makes it easier to breakdown facts about yourself whether they're known or not & it really get's you thinking about the potential within oneself.

[@siynd0]

Your video helps me so much for my reporting about self-awareness. Thank you so much for this video

[@mohammedhamza1743]

I have my exam tomorrow & the way you have explained, I think if there would be an exam after 5-10 years, my concept will be clear for this topic.
Amazing video, thumbs up (Y)

[@alexanderlyon]

[@Cali57]

❤Love this video I’m studying for an exam and you made this so clear❤️🙏🏾 thank you 🙏🏾 for using yourself that made it so much easier to understand I will be using this in some work training now that I completely understand it ❤️❤️

[@alexanderlyon]

Glad it was helpful!

[@nourel-huda8952]

Thank you for sharing this information, Alex! I believe we can use the Johari window to collect feedback from others (the open area and the blind spot) and from ourselves (hidden facade) in order to define and to determine both our weaknesses as well as our strengths. Then, from the feedback we receive we get to reinforce our strong/positive personal traits and work on overcoming our shortcomings. it also encourages self-discovery through engaging in more new experiences and stepping out of our comfort zone. By doing so we strive for improving our relationship with ourselves and with others. (btw, though Johari was and Indian name lol). Thank you once again and stay safe!

[@alexanderlyon]

Hi, Wafa. thanks for your post. You make some great points.
