Temperaments Personality temperament have its origin
in 400 BC
Great physician Hippocrates categorized the personality patterns into four types depending on the bodily fluid or humors.
According to Hippocrates four main humors or bodily fluid are found in human body
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
The four main humors are – yellow bile, black bile, blood and phlegm
Any one fluid out of all four is in dominant state
The nature and temperament of the person depends upon the domination of that fluid
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Yellow bile –
The domination of yellow bile in a person gives rise to irritable behavior.
The person is found more often restless and hot-blooded
These kind of persons are termed as “choleric”
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Black Bile-
Dominant state of this fluid arise symptoms of depression in the person
These kind of persons are known as “melancholic”
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Blood-
The dominant state of this fluid makes the person cheerful and jovial
The persons with dominant blood fluid is known as “Sanguine”
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Phlegm-
The dominant state of this fluid in a person gives rise to calmness and inactiveness
Such persons are less emotional
Such pattern of personality is called “Inactive or phlegmatic”

Personality pattern According to a theory expostulated by
Carl Jung (1875-1961) a contemporary of Freud, all personal characteristics are by-product of two fundamental attitudes types—
Introversion Extroversion Besides these several temperaments
also plays a vital role in determining personality
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Are you believe?
Personality is god gifted (by borne)
Personality can be mould, shaped and refined.
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Personality, unlike what many people believe, is not in born and static.
It can be consciously developed and changed.
With conscious effort , one can project the desired personality.
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Personality is our ornaments identity, as perceived by others.
A particular personality can be groomed
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Freudian analysis of personality Id Ego superego
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Freud’s Three-Part Personality Structure
Id
Ego
Superego
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
The Id
Is the original personality, the only part present at birth and the part out of which the other two parts of our personality emerge
Resides in the unconscious mind
Includes our biological instinctual drives, the primitive parts of our personality located in our unconscious
The nervous system, as id, translates the organism's needs into motivational forces called, in German, Triebe, which has been translated as instincts or drives. Freud also called them wishes.
Life instincts for survival, reproduction, and pleasure
Death instincts, destructive and aggressive drives detrimental to survival
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
The Id..
Id Operates on a pleasure principle; that is, it demands immediate gratification for these drives without the concern for the consequences of this gratification
For tension reduction aroused out of the mental conflict, Id uses two mechanism: Reflex action- In this mechanism ID reduces tension
by responding to the source of tension. E.g. coughing, sneezing, blinking of eyes
Primary Process- In this process the person imagines the situation or the thing from which he has been deprived to reduce the tension
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
The Ego Starts developing during the
first year or so of life to find realistic and socially-acceptable outlets for the id’s needs Operates on the reality principle,
finding gratification for instinctual drives within the constraints of reality (the norms and laws of society)
Part of the ego is unconscious (tied to the id) and part of the ego is conscious and preconscious (tied to the external world)
Serves as the executive manager of the personality
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
The Superego Represents one’s conscience and
idealized standards of behavior in their culture Operates on a morality principle,
threatening to overwhelm us with guilt and shame
The demands of the superego and the id will come into conflict and the ego will have to resolve this turmoil within the constraints of reality
To prevent being overcome with anxiety because of trying to satisfy the id and superego demands, the ego uses what Freud called defense mechanisms, processes that distort reality and protect us from anxiety
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Dynamic or structural Model
According to Freud structural model refers to those means by which the mental conflicts aroused out of instincts are resolved
By instincts Freud referred to An inborn pattern of behavior that is characteristic of a species and is often a response to specific environmental stimuli
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Defense MechanismsRepression Unknowingly placing an
unpleasant memory or thought in the unconscious so that we are not anxious about them; the primary defense mechanism
Not remembering a traumatic incident in which you witnessed a crime
Regression Reverting back to immature behavior from an earlier stage of development
Throwing temper tantrums as an adult when you don’t get your way
Displacement Redirecting unacceptable feelings from the original source to a safer substitute target
Taking your anger toward your boss out on your spouse or children by yelling at them and not your boss
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Defense MechanismsSublimation Replacing socially
unacceptable impulses with socially acceptable behavior
Channeling aggressive drives into playing football or inappropriate sexual desires into art
Reaction Acting in exactly the opposite way to one’s unacceptable impulses
Being overprotective of and lavishing attention on an unwanted child
Projection Attributing one’s own unacceptable feelings and thoughts to others and not yourself
Accusing your boyfriend of cheating on you because you have felt like cheating on him
Rationalization Creating false excuses for one’s unacceptable feelings, thoughts, or behavior
Justifying cheating on an exam by saying that everyone else cheats
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Unhealthy Personalities
Develop not only when we become too dependent upon defense mechanisms, but also when the id or superego is unusually strong or the ego unusually weak
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Swami Vivekananda concept of Personality development

Inter-personal skills
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
interpersonal skills An interpersonal relationship is an association
between two or more people that may range from fleeting to enduring.
This association may be based on inference, love, solidarity, regular business interactions, or some other type of social commitment. Interpersonal relationships are formed in the context of social, cultural and other influences. The context can vary from family or kinship relations, friendship, marriage, relations with associates, work, clubs, neighborhoods, and places of worship. They may be regulated by law, custom, or mutual agreement, and are the basis of social groups and society as a whole.
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Types of relationships A relationship is normally viewed as a connection between
individuals, such as a romantic or intimate relationship, or a parent–child relationship. Individuals can also have relationships with groups of people, such as the relation between a pastor and his congregation, an uncle and a family, or a mayor and a town. Finally, groups or even nations may have relations with each other, though this is a much broader domain than that covered under the topic of interpersonal relationships.
Interpersonal relationships usually involve some level of interdependence. People in a relationship tend to influence each other, share their thoughts and feelings, and engage in activities together. Because of this interdependence, most things that change or impact one member of the relationship will have some level of impact on the other member.

INCREASING INTERPERSONAL AWARENESS
“Johari window”
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Johari window The Johari window is a technique
created by Joseph Luft and Harry Ingham in 1955 in the United States, used to help people better understand their relationship with self and others. It is used primarily in self-help groups and corporate settings as a heuristic exercise.
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Conti----- Open: Adjectives that are selected by both the
participant and his or her peers are placed into the Open quadrant. This quadrant represents traits of the subjects that both they and their peers are aware of.
Hidden: Adjectives selected only by subjects, but not by any of their peers, are placed into the Hidden quadrant, representing information about them their peers are unaware of. It is then up to the subject to disclose this information or not.
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Blind Spot: Adjectives that are not selected by subjects but only by their peers are placed into the Blind Spot quadrant. These represent information that the subject is not aware of, but others are, and they can decide whether and how to inform the individual about these "blind spots".
Unknown: Adjectives that were not selected by either subjects or their peers remain in the Unknown quadrant, representing the participant's behaviors or motives that were not recognized by anyone participating. This may be because they do not apply or because there is collective ignorance of the existence of these traits.

Transactional analysis
TA offers a model of personality and the dynamics of self and its relationship to others that makes possible a clear and meaningful
decisions of behavior
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
TA cont-- Transactional Analysis is a theory developed by Dr. Eric
Berne in the 1950s. Originally trained in psychoanalysis, Berne wanted a theory which could be understood and available to everyone and began to develop what came to be called Transactional Analysis (TA). Transactional Analysis is a social psychology and a method to improve communication. The theory outlines how we have developed and treat ourselves, how we relate and communicate with others, and offers suggestions and interventions which will enable us to change and grow. Transactional Analysis is underpinned by the philosophy that:
people can change we all have a right to be in the world and be accepted
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Different ego states under TA At any given time, a person experiences and manifests
their personality through a mixture of behaviours, thoughts and feelings. Typically, according to TA, there are three ego-states that people consistently use:
Parent Adult Child
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Parent ("exteropsyche") a state in which people behave, feel, and think in
response to an unconscious mimicking of how their parents (or other parental figures) acted, or how they interpreted their parent's actions. For example, a person may shout at someone out of frustration because they learned from an influential figure in childhood the lesson that this seemed to be a way of relating that worked.
1. Nurturing parent ego2. Critical parent ego
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Adult ("neopsyche") a state of the ego which is most like a
computer processing information and making predictions absent of major emotions that could affect its operation. Learning to strengthen the Adult is a goal of TA. While a person is in the Adult ego state, he/she is directed towards an objective appraisal of reality.
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Child ("archaeopsyche")a state in which people behave, feel and think similarly
to how they did in childhood. For example, a person who receives a poor evaluation at work may respond by looking at the floor, and crying or pouting, as they used to when scolded as a child. Conversely, a person who receives a good evaluation may respond with a broad smile and a joyful gesture of thanks. The Child is the source of emotions, creation, recreation, spontaneity and intimacy.
Natural child Adaptive child Rebellion child
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Transactions and Strokes Transactions are the flow of communication, and more
specifically the unspoken psychological flow of communication that runs in parallel. Transactions occur simultaneously at both explicit and psychological levels. Example: sweet caring voice with sarcastic intent.
Strokes are the recognition, attention or responsiveness that one person gives another. Strokes can be positive (nicknamed "warm fuzzies" or negative ("cold pricklies"). A key idea is that people hunger for recognition, and that lacking positive strokes, will seek whatever kind they can, even if it is recognition of a negative kind. We test out as children what strategies and behaviours seem to get us strokes, of whatever kind we can get.
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Conti-- People often create pressure in (or experience pressure
from) others to communicate in a way that matches their style, so that a boss who talks to his staff as a controlling parent will often engender self-abasement or other childlike responses. Those employees who resist may get removed or labeled as "trouble".
Transactions can be experienced as positive or negative depending on the nature of the strokes within them. However, a negative transaction is preferred to no transaction at all, because of a fundamental hunger for strokes.
The nature of transactions is important to understanding communication.
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Kinds of transactionsThere are basically three kinds of transactions: Reciprocal/Complementary (the
simplest) Crossed Ulterior - Duplex/Angular (the most
complex)
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
1.Reciprocal or Complementary transactions
A simple, reciprocal transaction occurs when both partners are addressing the ego state the other is in. These are also called complementary transactions. AS—
1. P2P2. P2A3. P2C4. A2P5. A2A6. A2C7. C2P8. C2A9. C2CSome of them are as--
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
P2 P
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
A: "Have you been able to write the report?" (Adult to Adult)B: "Yes - I'm about to email it to you." (Adult to Adult)
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
A: "Would you like to skip this meeting and go watch a film with me instead?" (Child to Child)B: "I'd love to - I don't want to work anymore, what should we go and see?" (Child to Child)
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
A: "You should have your room tidy by now!" (Parent to Child)B: "Will you stop hassling me? I'll do it eventually!" (Child to Parent).
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
2.Crossed /Non complimentary transactions
Communication failures are typically caused by a 'crossed transaction' where partners address ego states other than that their partner is in. Consider the above examples jumbled up a bit.
This is a crossed transaction likely to produce problems in the workplace.
1- P2P and C2A 2- A2A and C2P 3- C2C and P2P
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
A: "Have you been able to write that report?" (Adult to Adult)B: "Will you stop hassling me? I'll do it eventually!" (Child to Parent)
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
3.Ulterior transactions
Another class of transaction is the ulterior transactions, where the explicit social conversation occurs in parallel with an implicit psychological transaction. For instance:
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
UT A: "I need you to stay late at the office with me." (Adult
words), body language indicates sexual intent (flirtatious Child)
B: "Of course." (Adult response to Adult statement), winking or grinning (Child accepts the hidden motive).
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Life positions In TA theory "Life Position" refers to the general
feeling about life (specifically, the unconscious feeling, as opposed to a conscious philosophical position) that colors every dyadic (i.e. person-to-person) transaction. Initially four such Life Positions were proposed:
"I'm Not OK, You're OK" (I-U+) "I'm Not OK, You're Not OK" (I-U-) "I'm OK, You're Not OK" (I+U-) "I'm OK, You're OK" (I+U+)

Improved -LP However, lately, an Australian TA analyst has claimed that in
order to better represent the Life Position behind disorders that were not, allegedly, as widespread and/or recognized at the time when TA was conceptualized as they are now (such as borderline personality disorder and narcissistic personality disorder) the above list requires alteration.
Also, two additional Life Positions are proposed: "I'm not-OK, You're OK" (I-U+) "I'm not-OK, You're not-OK" (I-U-) "I'm not-OK, But You're Worse" (I-U--) "I'm a Bit More OK Than You Are" (I++U+) "I'm OK, You're OK" (I+U+) "I'm OK, You're not OK" (I+U-)

Process of communications
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
NON- VERBAL COMMUNICATION
Interpreting the nonverbal part of the message
Nonverbal communication consists of that part of a message that is not encoded in words. The nonverbal part of the message tends to be less conscious and often reveals the sender’s feelings and preferences more spontaneously and honestly than the verbal part. If the verbal message does not match the nonverbal communication, people tend to believe the nonverbal message.
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Four types of nonverbal messages
1. Personal (to the individual) 2. Common to a group of people or
culture 3. Universal (to humankind) 4. Unrelated to the message (random)
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Personal Nonverbal communication
Personal Nonverbal communication involves kinds of nonverbal behaviour that are unique to one person.
The meaning is also unique to the person sending the message. For example, someone may work while talking; another person may work in silence. One person may laugh due to nervousness or fear, while another may cry.
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Cultural nonverbal communication,
Cultural nonverbal communication,
by contrast, is characteristics of, or common to, a group of people. It is learned unconsciously by observing others in the society group. In Aboriginal culture, for example, eye contact is less acceptable than it is European culture.
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Universal nonverbal communication
Universal nonverbal communication
is behaviour that is common to humankind. It shows happiness, sadness or deep-seated feelings – for example, a smile or tears.
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Unrelated nonverbal communication
Unrelated nonverbal communication, such as a sneeze, is unrelated to the verbal message. It can distract from the verbal message, but has little effect on the meaning of the verbal part of the message.
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Analysing Nonverbal Communication
• People communicate nonverbally with body movement and with personal relationship behaviours.
This nonverbal communication changes or complements the verbal communication. Nonverbal communication always occurs in a context, or framework. The context often determines the meaning of the nonverbal behaviour. On different occasions the same nonverbal gesture may have completely different meanings. Without context and spoken works, nonverbal behaviour is almost impossible to interpret with any accuracy.
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Seven different aspects • Theoretical writings and research classify
nonverbal communication into seven main areas:
1. Body movement (kinesics behaviour) 2. Physical characteristics 3. Touching behaviour 4. Vocal qualities (paralanguage) 5. Space (proximity) 6. Artifacts 7. Environment
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Body Movement • Body movement, or kinesics behaviour,
includes movement of the hands, head, feet and legs, posture, eye movements and facial expressions – all these affect the message.
• Body posture – the way a person stands, leans forward, pointing and shaking a finger at someone, is seen as trying to dominate the other person. The way this is received by others, and the type of feedback given, determines how the communication will flow.
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Physical Characteristics • Physical characteristics such as body shape,
general attractiveness, body and breathe odours, weight, hair and skin colour are important parts of nonverbal communication.
• Because people react and respond to these factors, they all determine their responses in interpersonal encounters. First impressions and images of others can be associated unconsciously with past experiences of people with similar physical characteristics.
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Paralanguage (Vocal Qualities)
• Paralanguage is that part of language associated with but not involving the word system. It consists of the voice qualities and vocalizations that affect how something is said rather than what is said.
Voice qualities include: • Pitch range • Pitch control • Rhythm control • Tempo • Articulation control • Resonance.
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Vocalizations • Vocalizations also give clue to the total
message. Three of these are shown in table. The tones of voice, rate of speaking and voice inflection are an important part of the total message. A tired person, for example, will speak more slowly than usual, a disappointed person may speak with a flat tone, while the tone of voice of someone excited about a coming holiday reflects this excitement.
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Type Examples
Vocal characterizers laughing, crying, sighing, yawning, clearing the throat, groaning, yelling, whispering
Vocal Qualifiers intensity (loud/soft); pitch height (high/low).
Vocal Segregates sounds such a ‘uh-huh’, ‘um’, ‘uh’; silent pauses.

Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
LISTENING – A PROACTIVE SKILL
In oral communication situations, listening plays an important role.
Listening is different from hearing. One can hear all noises and sounds and yet
could be a poor listener. Listening is hearing attentively and
responding appropriately. Only a good listener can became a good
speaker. Attentiveness begins with the posture a
listener adopts while he is listening.
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
LISTENING –------- If a person inclines towards the speaker, it means
that the speaker is not clear either in the message or in his articulation.
If the listener tilts his head backwards, it shows that he is indifferent.
A Good listener is proactive. He is, as they usually say, “all ears”. He responds appropriately using paralanguage.
He says, Hmm—yeah—yes—come on now and then. He asks questions and verifies facts. A listener’s role in an oral communication situation
is as important as a speaker’s role.
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Benefits of good listening Listening in communication has several
beneficial results. Good listening leads to getting useful
and updated information. Good listening creates a better
understanding and rapport between the speaker and listener.
Good listening leads to better decisions. Good listening provides the best feed
back to the speaker.
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Difference between hearing and listening
• Hearing is a physical process. The ear receive stimuli or sensations and transmit them to brain
• Listening refers to the interpretive process that takes place when we hear something. When we listen, tore ,classify and label information
• Listening is the most important of all the communication skills.
Upon awakening we listen to people, friends around us. Wherever we go, we listen to something. We spend most of our time engaged in listening. Listening occupies more time than any other communication.
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
What is exactly listening?
• Listening is an active process of receiving aural stimulus. Listening is an active rather than a passive process.
• Listening does not just happen we must make it happen.
• A great time is spent listening and talking listening serve two purposes in its process
1. As the sender of the message, listening to your receiver tells you how the other person has interpreted your message
2. As the receiver of a message listening to the other person allows you to understand their meaning
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Purpose of listening Purpose of listening serves a number of important
purposes. It enables the listener to check on the accuracy of understanding what the speaker said. Besides, the listener expresses acceptance of speaker’s feelings. Most important of all, listening provides a chance to the speaker to explore his or her feelings and thoughts further.
A variety of listening skills can be learned and developed with practice the following skills are worth practicing
Attending listening Encouraging listening Reflecting listening Active listening
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
In attending listening In attending listening you focus on
speaker by giving them your physical attention you use whole body, eye contact posture personal space in short complete feedback
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Encouraging listening Encouraging listening It invites speaker to say
more without pressuring them to disclose their feelings or though it is their choice
• Minimal and brief responses • Brief spoken responses let speaker know you
are listening and encourage them to talk Pause Brief pause allows speaker time to consider
reflect and decide whether to continue speaking Allow silence
Use encouraging question (5w)
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Reflecting listening Reflecting listening Restate the
speakers feeling and contents it shows the other person you understand
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Active Listening An active listener has empathy with the
speaker that shows that you understand the issue from other person point of view
Feedback is the connecting continuing or completing link
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Faults in listening Remember that every sound or voice that we
receive cannot be termed as listening. There are certain occasions when you
receive some certain sound stimulus but you do not understand it because your attention is towards something else.
In such cases, we say that you heard something but you did not listen to anything.
Moreover there are certain other factors which bar our proper listening.
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
listening pit falls: An average person remembers only half
of what is said during a 10-minute conversation and forgets half of that within 48 hours.
Studies agree that listening efficiency is no better than 28 to 30 percent. Following are the causes of listening pit falls:
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Prejudice All of us have personal opinions,
attitudes, or beliefs about certain things. When we listen to a speaker who is contrary to our ideas, we cannot maintain attention. As a result we do not listen to whatever he says. We should give a chance to the speaker to finish his message. Later, we can agree or disagree.
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Distraction Not only the verbal messages but also the
nonverbal cues of the speaker affect our listening. Actually, the entire physical environment affects listening. Among the negative factors are noisy fan, poor light, distracting background music, bang of a horn, extreme weather. Among the speaker’s nonverbal cues are his clothes, his voice quality, his wearing of a certain perfume, reek of sweat, excessive gestures, etc.
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Semantic barrier Meaning of words also create problem in
listening, as meaning of words vary from person to person influenced by feelings, attitudes, prejudices and biases. Sometimes the way a speaker utters a word annoys us.
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Preshrinking The average thinking capacity of a person is
up to 800 words per minute while the average speaker utters 80 to 160 words per minute. This difference sometimes make listeners deviate from the speaker’s words and they shift to something else. On the other hand people fill this gap by premature evaluation of what they are listening to. They arrive at the concluding thought quickly. This premature evaluation poses us our effective listening is impaired.
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Conti----------- • Borden or lack of interest • Listener’s dislike of speaker • Desire to change rather then accept
the speaker • Tendency to make early conclusion • Intrusion of listeners’ own values or
attitude • Listener’s opinion that the speaker
lacks credibility Ways to improve listening
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Effective Listening: Tips 1. It is always to listen quietly and
acknowledge that the speaker is saying either by nodding or saying, "I see."
2. Attention must be paid to the speaker's emotions and feelings.
3. It is necessary to maintain the feel of communication. Listeners must serve as a mirror to the speaker, and reflect the speaker's emotions.
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Tips 4. Discussions must be limited by time, and
discussions must be separate from discussions of company plans. Additionally, the tone of discussions must not be authoritative.
5. Direct disagreements and questions must be avoided. These force the speaker to take a defensive position, leading to misunderstandings.
6. If the listener needs an elaboration on a specific statement stated by a speaker, the listener must rephrase the statement as a simple question.
7. Attention must be paid to facts - both that are presented and hidden by the speaker.

We hear discussions in the college canteen, in the train, at the bus stop, during a meeting or anywhere where people come together.Before starting a Group Discussion let’s remember to ask ourselves:
Can we disagree without being disagreeable?
Can we be assertive without being aggressive?
Can we listen and not just speak?
Can we be analytical without being critical?

Group employers mindset
Through the medium of a Group Discussion, prospective employers hope to gain insight into a number of characteristic traits of the candidates, that are vital for working in a team and effectively executing tasks in the professional world, and make the right selection.
A few important Do’s and Don’ts are discussed here to help candidates prepare themselves.
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Group Discussion Situations
In the following slides we shall look at some situations where candidates interact in a group discussion and present various personality traits for the selection panel to study and evaluate
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
SITUATION 1Picture this situation where one person in the group tries to dominate another.
ANURADHA: I don’t think Global Warming is going to kill us all. Those who create rumours, always try to exaggerate the facts. Even in the past predictions have been made about the end of life on this very earth. And what can you do to tackle global warming? Can you stop moving in cars, flying in planes, running industries, using mobiles, air conditioners and all that we cannot survive without? (Looks at a participant sitting on her left and adds) I don’t think what you are saying is practical. I don’t think we need to create such a fuss about global warming.
Look how the same argument can be said in a better way:
SURBHI: Recently, I read an editorial in The Times of India that global warming may not be as disastrous as it is projected to be. The author had also quoted instances when such predictions were made in the past about bigger disasters but nothing of that sort happened. That, of course, is one point of view. There are others who have a completely different opinion. Therefore, we simply cannot brush aside all this concern in a whiff of over-confidence. I think we need to carefully analyse how drastically we have to change our life-style in order to be able to live up to the demanding adjustments and sacrifices if at all we have to stem the tide.
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
SITUATION 2
Look how the participant in this situation loses her cool and reacts to her co-participant’s attitude:
AMIT: (with a smirk on his face) You know, I agree with all this women’s liberation thing but you see sometimes, women take this liberation thing a little too seriously. I mean, a baby needs her mother more than her father. So, a woman will have to compromise and may be even give up her job after she has a baby. Men can’t give up their jobs and sit at home and take care of babies… it doesn’t help.
A participant is shown to be responding by saying this in an intensely emotional and angry tone. She looks very agitated and is seething with anger.
PRIYA: You are such a chauvinist (narrows her eyes while saying this). You think children are only the responsibility of the mother and not the father? Tell me, what is wrong if men sit at home and look after babies? You think a woman’s professional career is not important to her. What if she too wants to become rich, famous and important in life? Why should she alone put a break in her career because of the baby?
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
SITUATION 3
A heated discussion is going on amongst 6 participants:
PRIYANKA: Friends, I think India should develop nuclear weapons. All other developed nations have nuclear weapons, why should we be left behind. Jaideep is shown to be saying very softly after participant 5 has finished…
JAIDEEP: I think we should…. Surbhi cuts in and very vehemently says:
SURBHI: No, I don’t agree. Like I was saying earlier nuclear weapons should be banned. That is the best solution. At this point Anuradha who is concerned that Jaideep had not been allowed to speak says:
ANURADHA: Friends, I feel all of us are keen to know what our friend here (extending her hand, palm facing up towards Jaideep), has to say on this issue. Everybody turns to look at Jaideep who then looks gratefully at Anuradha and begins to say his point of view.
Pawan Kumar Tripathi Asst. Professor (HR) skyline Group of institutions Gr. Noida
Summing up the discussion- should be an active participant during the discussion- should have been an active listener who took notes capturing the key- points made by the participants—including positions of agreement and disagreement- the conclusion should be a logical one and represent the views articulated by the group- ability to get the buy-in of all members to summarize the group’s views- crisp and succinct communication skills with high degree of clarity

Some Myths about Group Discussion
• You should speak more (No!)• You should dominate the discussion (No!)• You should project yourself in style (No!)• You should speak in favor of topic (No!)• You should make others agree to your
point (No!)
FAQs on Group Discussion
Don't ever make the mistake of addressing the panel members while the GD is on. The GD is between you and the other members, not the panel members. You must avoid even looking at the panel members while the GD is in progress. Just ignore their existence.
Should I address the panel or the group members?
It could be semi-circular, or circular, or seating alongside a rectangular table, depending upon the venue. It is best not to bother about trivial issues like this, which you have no control over.
What is the seating arrangement like?
Is there time given for preparation after the topic is given and before starting the GD?
Usually some time (2-5 minutes) is given to collect one's thoughts, but there could be instances when this does not happen, so it is best not to bank on this.
FAQs on Group Discussion
You would not be looked upon favorably if you kept speaking all the time and did not listen to anyone else. Contrary to the misconception, the person who talks the most is not necessarily the one who is judged the best. The quality and not the quantity of your contribution counts.
Suppose I have a lot to say on the topic, should I say all of it?
Do not directly put someone who is consistently silent on the spot by asking him / her to speak up. But If someone has been trying to speak and has a good point but is cut off constantly, you may encourage him / her to continue with her point.
Should I encourage others to speak up?
How should I address the other group members?
If you are initiating the discussion, you could do so by collectively addressing the group as "Friends". Subsequently, you could use names (if the group has had a round of self-introduction prior to starting the discussion and you remember the names) or use pronouns like "he" / "she.
FAQs on Group Discussion
If participants are asked to sit in a circle or a semi circle, one position is as good as another. But if you are asked to sit on either side of a rectangular table, then choose a position as close to the centre as possible.
Is there any particular seating arrangement, which is favorable to the participants?
No. You should not. Leadership in a GD is established implicitly through one's performance in a GD.
Should we begin the GD by appointing a leader amongst ourselves?
Are the group members supposed to keep track of the time or will the panel keep track?
It would be good if you are conscious of the time, but not to the point of getting so distracted looking at your watch that you do not contribute to the discussion.
FAQs on Group Discussion
If you have to use technical terms, do not use abbreviations. After mentioning the term in full, explain to the group what it means. It is quite likely that other participants of the group have a different academic background than you. Make sure you are all on a level playing field.
Can I use technical terms or jargon, which is clear to me, but not to the group?
It is not likely that you will get a chance to ask for such permission. It may also go against you (as appearing weak on your part).
Do I begin my participation by requesting the group's permission to do so?
If I feel strongly about an issue, should I voice my feelings?
It is important to be cool and emotionally objective in a GD. If you react emotionally you are likely to lose control over yourself during the group discussion. Be calm and logical, not emotional in a GD.
FAQs on Group Discussion
You could try the following strategy:• Identify most powerful speaker in the group, and note down the points that he/she is making.• The moment the noise level reduces, enter supporting the powerful speaker.
How do I participate when the noise level is too high?
You certainly do. Insensitivity to others displays a lack of maturity and viciousness. It will act against your favor.
Do I have to be cautious about participants' feelings (on sensitive issues like religion, caste etc)?
What is the right time to enter a GD to ensure that I am heard properly?In any GD, there are crests & troughs during the discussion. Crest - when the noise level is at its peak. Trough - when there is almost total silence. Ideally, you should enter the GD during the trough period. But in competitive GDs, crests occur often and troughs may not occur at all. In such cases, enter the GD irrespective of the noise level provided you have a point to make.
FAQs on Group Discussion
Command over English is certainly advantageous but will not compensate for lack of good content. If your content is good, then even if your English might not be great, you must speak it out, rather than be inhibited by lack of good English. You will get credit for soundness of ideas.
How critical is my fluency in English to my performance?
Use of examples is helpful in elaborating your point, and helping others understand your idea better. But remember to keep it short and simple because in a competitive GD nobody has the patience to listen to long, drawn out examples.
How necessary is it to use examples for illustrating an idea?
Is it beneficial to be the first speaker in a group discussion?Being the first speaker is a high risk, high return strategy. If you can make a good opening statement, which is relevant and sets the tone for the GD, it will go in your favor. However if you speak for the sake of speaking, not really having anything pertinent to say, it will be remembered and will go against you.
FAQs on Group Discussion
Depends on the situation. In a GD that is fairly relaxed, it may be acceptable. But in a competitive situation, where the participants are tensed up, your attempts at humour may fall flat.
Is it good to be humorous in a GD?
To avoid such situation, speak up in the first 4-5 minutes of the GD, else you have two choices:• Agree with the point made by that person and add to it to broaden the scope of the argument.• Drop the point and think of fresh points.
What do I do if someone else has already said what I wanted to say?
How much or for how long should I participate?
In a 20 minute GD with 10-12 participants, try and participate at least 4 times with each entry lasting at least 25-30 seconds. You could participate more depending on your comfort level and the need for participation.
FAQs on Group Discussion
There is a very thin line between aggression and assertiveness. You should always aim to sound assertive and not stubborn.
What level of aggression is seen acceptable?
You may be asked about other participant’s response / views. Therefore it helps to be alert all through the GD.
Will I be quizzed about my (or others) participation in the GD?
How is aggression taken and measured in a GD?
The moment you notice people reacting to you negatively or strongly, you may take it that you are being too aggressive. The degree of the reaction is the measure of your aggression.
FAQs on Group Discussion
Depends on how it is done. If you openly request someone to speak, you may be putting the other person in a difficult spot. It is better to use other means of motivation, such as agreeing with a halting speaker, adding on to their points, supporting and giving them direction.
Is motivating other people in the group to speak looked upon favorably?
This may happen if the GD becomes too noisy and if the level of discussion deteriorates abysmally.
Can the moderator to stop or cut short the GD much before the stipulated time is over?
Is it true that the GD is used more as an elimination technique rather than as a selection tool?
Depends on the institute. In most premier institutes/companies it is used as a selection tool, not as an elimination technique.
FAQs on Group Discussion
It is alright to ask questions for the purpose of clarification but not for the purpose of playing the devil's advocate and proving them wrong. By playing the devil's advocate you hamper the flow of the GD. The pointed questions unsettle the other participant.
Is it all right to ask pointed questions to other participants during a GD?
By all means you can. It would demonstrate your creativity and originality. Just make sure it is relevant to the topic.
Are we expected to stick to a line of thought or can we come up with something radical?
Can I be aggressive with a lady participant?
A GD is not the place to demonstrate chivalry (gallantry). Being rude to any participant [male or female] is downright unacceptable. You need not extend any special privileges to a lady.
FAQs on Group Discussion
No. Topics are usually general in nature to give a level playing field to everyone.
Is voting an acceptable method of reaching a consensus?

Situation 1
Sheeba: Good morning, please introduce yourself to the panel.
Arti: I am Arti Nair. I have completed my B.Tech from IIT Delhi. My parents are working professionals and I have been brought up in Delhi. During the last year of college, I participated in various extra-curricular activities and was the placement secretary in college. I have been a diligent student, and have maintained a high percentage and rank all through. My favorite subjects are Electronics and 3G technology.

Situation 3
Sheeba: What are your strengths and weaknesses?
Kiran: My biggest strengths are my perseverance and integrity. During my engineering preparation, it was my aim to get into the best college. In my first attempt, I could not get through any of the IIT’s. However, I did not lose hope, but dropped a year, worked part time, and reappeared in the IIT JEE. Finally, my efforts bore fruit and I got through IIT Delhi.My weakness, as I perceive it, is that I am quite shy, and take quite a while to open up and mix with people.
