Is your workplace too stuffy – while competitors are running miles ahead of you ... with expensive new hires? Could Your Workplace Benefit from More Talent...? Rather than pay new hires … why not draw more from multiple intelligences already there – to increase your productivity? 
Consider how a concert pianist, will do the same work differently than the top hockey player… for instance … and you see what I mean. Look around your organization and you’ll find both these experts and many more. If one worker is weak in a skill, organizational performance need not suffer. Not when you draw from multiple intelligences to bring the complex pieces of each project together. The key is to negotiate roles and reward quality results. To use multiple intelligences is to help workers put forward their unique strengths as tool for productivity, and to help companies increase their productivity as a result of hidden or unused talents that emerge.
Go After Eight Intellectually Different People at Work ...and Together Create Mind-bending Productivity Through a Collaborative Project .... Simply write a person's name beside each of the intelligences below and you'll have your new team!

Each person will bring a unique perspective if you invite it ... once you kick-off your plans. Throughout the process of working through different intelligences, people achieve things never before achieved through using parts of the brain never before used at work. Productivity tends to spike when workers begin to use and grow their stronger capabilities creatively. It’s actually quite simple – simply tell people they each possess at least eight intelligences and brainstorm ways to bring all eight into the next project. See any applications for a project that uses more of your unique capabilities? That’s the place to draw from one new intelligence … Where do you see multiple intelligence benefits at your workplace?
