9. PERCEPTUAL BARRIERS
 Some errors and problems may arise in the
perceptual interpretation of individuals:
a) Stereotyping : Judging people on the basis of the
nature of the GROUP, to which they belong is
called stereotyping. Ex: Fat men are jolly, older
women are motherly, japanese are goal oriented.
b) Impression : It is seen that people genarally form
impression about others on the first sight, even
before knowing any of their other weaknesses.
First impression is not always last impressions.

10.  Halo Effect : Stereotyping the person is perceived
according to a single category. Under the halo effect
the person is perceived on the basis of his
characteristics or traits.
 Projection : Projection means one's own feelings to
see in some other one and behave according to that,
if one may be dishonest will always be suspicious
and not do trust any one.
 Attribution : Attribution refers how an individual
explain the situation.
 Inference : Inference means to take the decisions
against some one on the basis of limited
informations.

12. • Developing Perceptual Skills in Managers
who is interested to perceive things or others properly
must be that he must understand himself well. That
means know yourself well to know others well. As it
goes in this poetic way of an Urdupoet,” Padi jab
Apne Gunaho par Nazar, toh Nigah mai Koi Bura
Na Raha.” The words to that effect are: when I
looked into my sins, I found no other sinner but
me. This leads one to understand oneself by means
of self-appraisal. by: Dr Nitin Sharma
