3 IDIOTS who realised their self concept….
Or Be it Mr. Bhola like this…
It’s not correct..
You are good for nothing..
You are late..
Leave at once..
You are wrong
You are a waste..
What is the problem with you???
You are stupid..
Not again.
IF I AM NOT OF ANY USE TO ANYONE..
IF I AM NOT INTELLIGENT..
IF I AM NOT LIKED BY PEOPLE
IF I AM NOT QUICK..
IF I AM ALWAYS WRONG..
IF I AM WORTHLESS…..
THEN
Self-concept is an organisation or patterning of attitudes, habits, knowledge, drives and the like and cementing together of all these complex components.
WHAT IS SELF-CONCEPT…
Self Concept-A Reality Filter
• Self Concept screens out what we do not want to hear and see and passes through what we do want to see and hear.
• Example of a businessman in two different situations.
• Example of photographers.
Self Concept –A Reality Filter
“Tom, I’m concerned about our relations with the XYZ company.Its purchases from us have fallen off lately and rather abruptly.Will you investigate & find out the cause of the reduced volume? Let me know if you run into anything you don’t understand.”
EXECUTIVE A
“Jane,the XYZ company has cut back its purchases from us for the third month in a row.We’ve got to get on this & quick.Now,you go and visit it.I wish I could but I’m tied down here.Talk to the purchasing agent-uh, what is her name again? Shuffling papers..its Bailey.you better see the chief engineer.his name slips me for a moment.But don’t go near Sam Awful..I’ve got to have some answers on this Jane.The boss is on my neck..
EXECUTIVE B
Continuing changes• Old order changeth yielding place to
new. • Change in behaviour = Change in
Self-Concept.• What Problem do Managers come
across…• Nothing significant may happen but
still a change may ensue.• Changes can become a continuum .
Linchpin for growth• Subtle impact is called for Manager Development.• Change in Self Concept.• Such a change is difficult.• Growth is painful,change is painful,but nothing is as painful as staying stuck somewhere you don’t belong.
Squabble in Self -Concept
• Each human being is several selves.
• Disparity in Self- Concept.
• The human conscious.
• Many problems arise.
• An individual himself becomes his greatest hurdle.
Pseudo Self- Concept• How I see myself V/s How
others see me.• Uncounted misfits.• “Who am I” & “Who I think I
am.”• Pay –off.• Grow old gracefully.• It isn’t what you know that
finally counts; its who you are.
He is democratic,attentive to others, soft-spoken, unlikely to “order”, always likely to “suggest”.
Mr.W.GeorgeV.P. of Sales
“Whom do I work for”, “Nobody knows whether I’m doing well or poorly”,”We haven’t any system to follow in service to customers.
“Unsure of himself as an administrator, a stimulator, coordinator of his people, an excellent personal sales person, but not a supervisor”
Mr.W.GeorgeV.P. of Sales
“George , your people are waiting for you to clear the air.They will follow any organisational plan you want them to.This step you can only take.They respect you and want your leadership.They value you . Don’t ask them; tell them for goodness’s sake, how you’re going to organise their activities”
Mr.W.GeorgeV.P. of Sales
Resistance to Change• Is change in Self –Concept
possible???• Why executives think that
effort in this regard is futile???
• Effect when mature people change.
• Effect when executives change.
Steps to Maturity• Self -examination• Self-expectation• Self-direction• Broadened perceptions• Self-realizing Power
Self - examination
• First step is self examination
• Individual get an inkling to change their behaviour
• Preparation for insight
• Insight precede change in behaviour
• Self examination Insight Growth
Self - expectation• Second step is self
expectation• Individual realise the
direction in which they want to grow
• New demands are set up themselves
• Leads to constructive growth
• Out of insight comes change in self-expectation
Self-direction
• Third step is self-direction• Take charge of their own development• Strength of their desire is enough for
growth• As learning is impossible without
motivation, Growth/ development is impossible unless we seek it
• Intrinsic motivation
Broadened Perceptions• See themselves in
relation to environment, both personal and impersonal
• Develop image in response to what they see
• Not be narrow in their outlooks
• Overcome constraints of self-concept
Self-realizing Power
• See what our real selves could be and grow into that
• Means “ Fulfilling one’s destiny”
• Recognize unrealized power
• Difference between strong person and weak person lies in self-concept
• The more realistic one’s view of oneself, the more guaranteed is personal effectiveness.
• Effective consistent behaviour is integrated behavior, while unintegrated behavior is the behavior of conflict.
• Mature people resist change.• The power to “see the real me”• Realization of self image• The “I” behind the face in the mirror• Self concept is prerequisite for growth.• Growth: Evolvement of personal goals and the sense
of venture in pursuing them
Must Watch
• WHO AM I –Casting Crowns• Dont’t you know who I think I am – Fall Out Boy.• Who am I movie by Jackie Chan
That’s all on our part…
