Find out how to build teams like a Judo master... with ease and using their preferences and energy.

Because of this, understanding people’s multiple intelligence quotients (or MiQ) is important as a team leader or manager.

Why?

Well, for starters, understanding your team members’ MiQs helps you:

  • Choose ad hoc or project teams

  • Create meeting debriefs and icebreakers

  • Select new supervisors

  • Develop communication plans

  • Implement discipline strategies

  • Delegate or direct work

  • Choose training events

And when team members feel challenged and understood, they are better engaged.

Higher team engagement means more progress.

More progress means more motivated teams.

It’s a win-win.

Ask your team members what their MiQs are. And if they don’t know, send out a questionnaire.

People like it when others show interest in them, especially if that interest is motivated by a desire to improve a person’s working experience.
