VENTANA DE JOHARI

Summary

This script introduces the Johari Window, a self-awareness tool created by Joseph Luft and Harrington Ingham. It consists of four quadrants representing what is known and unknown about oneself and others. The speaker explains how to construct a personal Johari Window and suggests ways to increase the 'open area' by sharing more about oneself and seeking feedback. The script also discusses four communication styles based on sharing and requesting information. It encourages viewers to do an exercise to identify personal traits and gain insights into how others perceive them.

Takeaways

• 😀 The Johari Window is a tool for self-awareness and understanding how others perceive you.
• 🔍 It consists of four quadrants: Open (known by self and others), Blind (known by others but not self), Hidden (known by self but not others), and Unknown (unknown by both self and others).
• 📊 To construct your own Johari Window, you draw two lines to make four quadrants and answer questions about how much you care about others' opinions and how much you share your thoughts with others.
• 🗣️ To increase the Open area, you should seek feedback (reduce Blind area) and share more about yourself (reduce Hidden area).
• 🤔 The script suggests that being more open and honest in communication can lead to more empathetic and genuine relationships.
• 📈 There are four communication styles based on the Johari Window: Type A (neither shares nor seeks information), Type B (seeks but doesn't share), Type C (shares but doesn't seek), and Type D (both shares and seeks).
• 🧐 The script encourages self-reflection and seeking honest feedback from trusted individuals to gain a broader understanding of oneself.
• 📝 An exercise is suggested where you and others list your positive and negative traits to compare and contrast with your self-assessment.
• 🤝 The Johari Window can help in personal development by identifying areas of potential growth and blind spots.
• 🌟 The tool is valuable at any stage of life, as it can adapt to changes in openness and self-awareness over time.
