Susan Hill · Answer 1

Blindspot Area.

Explanation:

Johari Window is a model developed by Joseph Luft and Harry Ingham in 1955. The model was developed with the purpose to improve self--awareness and personal development of an individual in a group. The model was developed with two principles-trust by revealing about oneself to others and learning from the feedbacks given by them.

The model is the divide into four windows namely open area, blindspot area, hidden area, and unknown area.

From the four windows, the one that fits the given scenario is the 'blindspot area.'

The Blindspot area also known as blind area or blind self is the area that is not known by self but known by others.

In the given case, Aaliyah's blindspot is that she does not know that she moves back and forth nervously while leading an important business meeting. But her shifting is known to others or attendees.

So, the correct answer is blindspot area.
