Question

When a round of downsizing forced olivia's boss, karen, to ask olivia to absorb the responsibilities of the laid-off grant writer, neither woman was sure what to expect. olivia had never written a grant before, but karen mentored her along. over time, they discovered that olivia had a great talent and interest for the task, and she successfully wrote proposals that were awarded hundreds of thousands of dollars. this example of mentoring resulted in which change in olivia's self-disclosure?

Answer 1

I believe the answer is: Expansion of the blind window
In this context, blind window represents the things that other people could percieve on the individuals which the individuals cannot.
In the text above, only Olivia's mentors and peers see the potential that resided in her, and she's still hasn't got into the stage where she fully realized it.
