Abstract

Multiple intelligences theory contends that there are multiple “intelligences”, at least seven types of human capacities and abilities, which exist and can be found in each individual in varying degrees. This theory has made a major impact in the educational field, but it also has applications for other types of quality organizations. Businesses can use multiple intelligences theory to structure workshops and training sessions for employees which will enhance teamwork, develop human potential, and foster creativity.
