Is it how one behaves or how we treat

March 24, 2009Marketing- corporate branding

11

• The difference between a lady and a flower girl is not how she behaves but how she’s treated. I shall always be a flower girl to Professor Higgins, because he always treats me as a flower girl, and always will, but I know I can be a lady to you because you always treat me as a lady, and always will.”

Eliza Doolittle my fair lady by George Bernard Shaw

The psychology – How it works

March 24, 2009Marketing- corporate branding

12

• We form certain mental maps • We communicate those ideas with various cues.• People tend to respond to these cues by adjusting their behaviour to match them.• The result is that the original expectation becomes true. • This creates a circle of self-fulfilling

prophecies.

• If we think of people as Business Object skill or Informatica skill ,

• we shall always believe that we are an organization which is collection of people with those skills.

“When you meet someone for the first time, or walk into a house you are thinking of buying, or read the first few sentences of a book, your mind takes about two seconds to jump to a series of conclusions.”

Malcolm Gladwell -Author of “Blink”

“Mental models”

March 24, 2009Marketing- corporate branding

17

• are deeply ingrained assumptions, generalizations, or even pictures or images that influence how we understand the world and how we take action. The discipline of working with mental models starts with turning the mirror inward; learning to unearth our internal pictures of the world, to bring them to the surface and hold them rigorously to scrutiny. It also includes the ability to carry on "learningful" conversations that balance inquiry and advocacy, where people expose their own thinking effectively and make that thinking open to the influence of others.
