“Ego states is the key concept in the Transactional analysis. It allows us to understand the psychological structure of an individual. Bringing awareness of the different parts of our self, and how they interact with each other within us and with people around us is the first step towards personal growth and development. The theory says every human being has, within the self, three ego states- Parent, Adult and Child. All behaviour and communication originate from one of these three ego state” Prof K S V Baliga, Business Consultant, Udupi at Poornaprajna Institute of Management, Udupi on 06.09.2016.
