Multiple Intelligences Theory

About This Webinar

Move beyond traditional IQ. Howard Gardner laid out the 8 distinct types of intelligences that we all possess to some degree - strong in some and weaker in others, that's normal. By understanding these diverse cognitive strengths in yourself and others, you'll learn how to unlock your own hidden potential and better support the varied learning and working styles of your colleagues. Each participant will receive an optional 'psychometric' test before the session to determine their own strengths and weaknesses.

The 8 Intelligences:
• Visual-Spatial: The capacity to think in images, visualize accurately, and reason about space and 3D dimensions.
• Verbal-Linguistic: Strong command of language, words, and the auditory or written skills to express complex ideas.
• Logical-Mathematical: The ability to calculate, quantify, consider propositions and hypotheses, and carry out complex mathematical operations.
• Bodily-Kinesthetic: The capacity to use one's physical body skillfully, possessing fine-tuned motor control, grace, and athletic or crafting prowess.
• Musical: Sensitivity to rhythm, pitch, timber, and the ability to compose, perform, or appreciate musical patterns.
• Interpersonal: The ability to understand, interact well with, and discern the moods, motivations, and desires of others.
• Intrapersonal: A deep capacity for self-awareness, allowing an individual to understand their own inner feelings, fears, motivations, and strengths.
• Naturalistic: The ability to recognize, categorize, and appreciate plants, animals, and other features of the natural environment.
• Existential: A sensitivity and capacity to tackle deep philosophical questions about human existence, such as the meaning of life, death, and ultimate realities.
