Sommario/riassunto

This guide turns Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences into user-friendly tools for understanding and assessing success in everyone from CEOs to cleaners. It provides a complete system for examining staff needs, matching applicants to jobs, and supervising and training effectively. The results allow the identification of individual skills and uncover the mosaic of skills needed for multi-skilling, multi-tasking and efficient teamwork.
