OBJECTIVE
To illustrate how people often have different views of the same thing.
PROCEDURE
1) Explain the trainees about this:
Emotions and feelings within each of us are 'triggered' in different ways. We think differently and therefore see things differently. We often do not imagine that other people may see something quite differently to how we see the 'same' thing. Management and relationships, in work and outside of work too, depend heavily on our being able to understand the other person's view, and what causes it to be different to our own.
2) Ask them the following questions:
1. Close your eyes and imagine the days of the week
2. What colour is each day?
DISCUSSION QUESTIONS
a) Why did your choices differ from group members?
b) Why we see the same thing differently?
MATERIAL REQUIRED
None
APPROXIMATE TIME REQUIRED
15 minutes
