Spiritual-Intelligence/-Quotient

Abstract

Drawing on the new [c. 2000], upgraded science of the human brain with its three different kinds of neural structuresmental, emotional and spiritualZohar [14] offers a model for structure, leadership and learning within an organization that allows them to thrive on uncertainty, deal creatively with rapid change, and realize the full potential of those who lead or work with them. Danah Zohar relates quantum and chaos thinking directly to organizational problems and challenges facing corporate leaders, proposing analogies that parallel our quest for defining and trying to test intelligence. Thinking is not entirely cerebral, not just IQ, as we think with our heads but also with our emotions and our bodies (EQ) and our spirits, our values, our hopes, our unifying sense of meaning and value (SQ), and whether mind has a quantum dimension. Spiritual Intelligence is about having a direction in life, and being able to heal ourselves of all the resentment--- It is thinking of ourselves as an expression of a higher reality.
