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

[@Kenzinru]

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.

[@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.

[@naseermak4357]

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

[@shall4395]

I use these videos in my classes. The videos help my kids learn how to interview

[@yarraexpressllc8431]

your explanation open my mind quickly. I was questioning myself and be knowing a little new things about myself.

[@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'.

[@alicialanguita7092]

Thank you for being generous to share this information with us who need it.

[@Claudia-ek9ev]

I heard of the concept in a social work class. This video really explains it well. Thank you.

[@gnanasekaranebinezar7199]

I am fascinated to become trainer. I had been known Johari for more than two decades ago. But the way in which you explained is simply awesome

[@ginspaulding9787]

Wonderful explanation!! I've loved the Johari model for years, since learning about it in a counseling class. Your explanation is the best I've seen on a video! Great job!

[@alexanderlyon]

Glad it was helpful. I appreciate your positive words.

[@siynd0]

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

[@dianahamar4656]

Great info that simply describes the concepts I teach! Thank you!

[@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.

[@Eren-jb7sq]

This is the best explanation of Johari window I've seen on the internet.

[@alexanderlyon]

That is very kind. Thank you, Eren. I appreciate your encouragement.

[@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 KZbin 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.

[@dorjichoedra8728]

Wonderful explanation! You did a commendable job incorporating your practical life experiences into it.

[@alexanderlyon]

Glad it was helpful!

[@jimmyaujla2145]
