Transactional AnalysisPeople think like they do…..People act like they do…..And they do that, depending on their current life positions Does it sound heavy & complicated to even read the above lines? Well, we are all part of this “Games people play” as rightly titled by Author Eric Berne for his book on Transaction Analysis (TA) And if we completely understand the concept – we can become masters in handling people & relationships in all spheres of life. TA helps us understand how people are structured psychologically and that helps us manage our conversations well. Eric Berne, founder of International Transactional Analysis Association, created the theory of TA as a way of explaining Human behaviour. He has wonderfully explained that Human minds drives out of Morals (Parent Ego state), Rational (Adult Ego state) Or Emotional (Child Ego state) part of mind. The Transactions or Conversations (Verbal or Nonverbal) between 2 individuals, irrespective of what relationship they share, will always be in sync if we understand each other’s ego state. As a result there will be no noise around Do you know what ego state you drive out of (mostly)? Charu Srivastav#cstrainingsolutions
