In order to prepare one's self to be a true leader in the global arena, individuals must know how they measure up with respect to the level of their leadership competencies. The intent of this discussion is to allow you as an individual to identify how you "measure up" to Gardner's five minds.
In an open and honest discussion, create a list of your level of competency (strengths and areas to improve on) with respect to each of the five minds listed below. Provide your thoughts on ways to further develop and improve your five minds. Also, remember to provide examples and linkage to the course concepts in your discussion. Address your competency regarding the following:
The disciplined mind: The ability to delve deep that is associated with expertise in a certain field of scholarship or the professions.
The synthesizing mind: The ability to pick and choose among an array of information from several disciplines so that the resulting explanation makes sense.
The creating mind: The ability to go beyond existing knowledge to forge new ground, "pose new questions, offer new solutions" (Gardner, 2006, p. 156).
The respectful mind: The ability to appreciate and welcome all forms of diversity.
The ethical mind: The ability to seek both good work and good citizenship.
