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…

Page 15: HBR ARTICLE

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

Page 16: HBR ARTICLE

“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

Page 17: HBR ARTICLE

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..

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 .

Page 19: HBR ARTICLE

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.

Page 21: HBR ARTICLE

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.

Page 22: HBR ARTICLE

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.

Page 24: HBR ARTICLE

“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

Page 25: HBR ARTICLE

“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.

Page 27: HBR ARTICLE

Steps to Maturity• Self -examination• Self-expectation• Self-direction• Broadened perceptions• Self-realizing Power

Page 28: HBR ARTICLE

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

Page 29: HBR ARTICLE

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

Page 30: HBR ARTICLE

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

Page 31: HBR ARTICLE

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

Page 32: HBR ARTICLE

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

Page 33: HBR ARTICLE

• 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
