This is the question posed in a recent article (click here for link) that cites my theory of multiple intelligences.
I agree with the author, Dunstan Chan, that those who are able to hold on to power for decades have certain skills—which could range from knowing how to foreground their alluring personalities to being able to manipulate (or shut down) the ballot boxes.
But what this author is asking for is the use of our intelligences for positive ends. And this is what we have been doing as we link “multiple intelligences” with “good work” and “The Good Project” (click here to read my article, “Intertwining Multiple Intelligences with Good Work”).
