Final Answer :
E
Explanation :
When we disclose information to colleagues, it increases our open area in Johari Window by reducing our hidden area. This is because the information we share with others becomes publicly known, reducing what we are intentionally keeping hidden. This allows for more transparency and helps others understand us better.
