Johari Window – What do you think of me?
Many thanks to ¤p´Å, who introduced to me the following tool useful for understanding myself and, most importantly, for knowing how other people perceive me.
A Johari window is a metaphorical tool intended to help people better understand their interpersonal communication and relationships. It is used primarily in self-help groups and corporate settings as a heuristic exercise. Terms selected only by the participant, but not by any of their peers, are placed into the Façade quadrant, representing information about the participant of which their peers are unaware. It is then up to the participant whether or not to disclose this information.
Terms that are not selected by the participant but only by their peers are placed into the Blind Spot quadrant. These represent information of which the participant is not aware, but others are, and they can decide whether and how to inform the individual about these "blind spots".
Terms which were not selected by either the participant or their peers remain in the Unknown quadrant, representing the participant’s behaviors or motives which were not recognized by anyone participating. This may be because they do not apply, or because there is collective ignorance of the existence of that trait.

My OD pals, could you help me by telling me what kind of person I am in your eyes? The following link sends you to a page containing many adjectives, from which you can choose 5 – 6 to describe me:

The following sends you to another page (Nohari window), again containing many adjectives, but this time it’s about my shortcomings. The words are more difficult and so will be more challenging, but it’s even more important to me coz this is how I can improve myself. Hey, don’t be shy, just tell me how you perceive me as honestly and directly as possible!

Sorry it has to be in English coz I can’t find any Chinese version. Thanks for doing the tests for me!
Oops, almost forgot to include this link for those of you interested in getting your own profile:

hey i’ve just chosen 6 adj for u… however, i thought there are actually more adjectives i’d use to describe u too, so apart from the six i’ve chosen, i want to add these as well: helpful, kind, mature, logical, confident, friendly. Wow… i think they should expand the 5/6 adjectives limit to at least 10!!! ^^

i have problem picking the other adjectives (that represent your ‘significant weakness’) for u… cos, after all, i only know u from what u write on OD, and honestly… i don’t see any of the ‘weakness’ quality in your entries… hhmmmm… perhaps that’s cos i don’t know u in person, so it’s really difficult to say.

I have the feeling that I’ve mixed up the two links, so what I perceived as your shortcomings are actually your merits.

Sorry, I only do the test on your strength. I feel that it is not fair for me to judge you on your weaknesses, for you’ve displayed non here in OD.
