perception of our own action different from our perception of the action of others-2014

Perception is one of the most important psychological factors affecting the human behavior and concept of perception is very closely related to the personality of a person. Perception lies at the base of the every human behavior. One cannot live without perception. Every person perceives the world and approached the life problems differently; whatever we see or feel is not necessarily the same as true. It is because what we hear is not what is reality said, but what we perceive as being said. When we purchase something, it is not that it is the best, but because we assume it that is the best. Thus, it is because of perception, one can understand why one individual finds a job satisfying while another may not be satisfied with it. The perception is very important for managers who want to avoid making errors when dealing with people and events in the work environment. 

This problem is made more complicated by the fact that different people perceive the same situation differently. In order to deal with subordinates effectively the managers must understand their perception correctly. Perceptual mechanism process is as shown below; If people behave on the basis of their perception we can predict their behavior in the changed circumstances by understanding their present perception of the environment. One person may be viewing the facts as seen by another viewer. Thus perception is a process of receiving, organizing interpreting, checking and relating to sensory stimuli or data.
