The hidden area of the Johari Window, also known as the "Façade," represents information about oneself that an individual is aware of but keeps hidden from others. This can include personal feelings, thoughts, or experiences that one chooses not to disclose. By reducing the hidden area through self-disclosure, individuals can foster deeper relationships and enhance mutual understanding within a group or team. It emphasizes the importance of openness in communication for personal and interpersonal growth.
The Johari window is used as a tool to improve and illustrate self awareness. The hidden area of the model has messages that are things you know about yourself but others do not know.

The Johari Window is a model that represents self-awareness and mutual understanding in relationships. It categorizes information into four quadrants: open, blind, hidden, and unknown. The goal is to increase the open area by sharing information to enhance effective communication and collaboration.
From what I learnt from Organziational Behaviour, the Johari Window is "a model of mutual understanding that encourages disclosure and feedback to increase our own open area and reduce the blind, hidden and unknown areas."It divides information into four windows based on whether our own values, beliefs, and experiences are known to us and others or notopen area: info about you that are known to both you and othersblind area: info that is known to others but not youhidden area: info known to you but not othersunknown area: values, beliefs and experiences that aren't known to you or othersThe goal is to maximize your open area window/section which can be done by reducing hidden area by sharing and telling others our beliefs, how we feel, and experience that may/can influence the relationship. Also our open window increases from getting feed back from others.McShane, Steven and Sandra Steen. (2009). Individual Behaviour, Personality, and Values. Canadian Organizational Behaviour(pp. 64).

The Johari Window is a model that represents four quadrants of self-awareness: open, hidden, blind, and unknown. In an organizational setting, it helps individuals and teams understand themselves and others better, fostering clearer communication, trust, and collaboration. By increasing the open area (what is known to self and others) through feedback and disclosure, the organization can enhance interpersonal relationships, decision-making, and overall effectiveness.
The Johari Window model suggests that our self has four aspects that control what we share with others: the Open Area, Blind Area, Hidden Area, and Unknown Area. The Open Area represents information known to both ourselves and others, while the Blind Area includes aspects others see but we do not. The Hidden Area contains what we know but keep secret from others, and the Unknown Area encompasses aspects neither we nor others are aware of. This model emphasizes the dynamics of self-disclosure and feedback in interpersonal relationships.
