Johari Window

The Johari Window model consists of four quadrants that represent the levels of self-knowledge and what is known about an individual by others. It was created in 1955 by Joseph Luft and Harry Ingham to improve self-awareness and communication between individuals and groups. The four regions are: open self (openly known to self and others), blind self (known to others but not self), hidden self (known to self but not others), and unknown self (unknown to both self and others). The goal is to increase the open self through feedback and reduce the other regions through self-reflection and improved awareness. The model helps improve communication, relationships, and group dynamics.
