In the book Creiamo cultura insieme is reported a process that we use to evaluate other people’s behaviours. The various phases of the process are:

• We select some pieces of the reality we live
• We give a meaning to these pieces
• We evaluate the behaviour comparing it with an expected behaviour
• We interpret the behaviour
• We judge the behaviour

Therefore we evaluate people based on our filters (our own selection of the information received, expected behaviour, our own interpretation). This may lead to hurried conclusions and to wrong evaluations.

In the book it is suggested to suspend the judgement and to try to understand the actual needs of the other person in order to reduce the likelihood to wrong evaluations.
