 A reflection paper of your Dominant Intelligence based on M.I. by

H.G.

Intelligence is not a unitary construct at all, but rather a multiple

constructs, there is not one, but eight “multiple intelligences”, according to
Gardner. Based on the Multiple Intelligence (MI) test that I took, I discovered
the highest of it is the Interpersonal Intelligence out of the eight different
areas of the MI by Howard Gardner. So what is Interpersonal Intelligence?
Simply, refers to someone’s ability to communicate effectively with others
using both verbal communication which means by talking to people, and
nonverbal communication through our body language and facial
expressions. I feel so dominant with this Intelligence since I am a School
Human Resource Management Officer. Most of the time, I always see to it
that I make other people, particularly the personnel in our school to feel
comfortable around the surroundings and of the work environment. I often
see myself empathizing and understanding their feelings especially when
they come to me for an advice or simply just to have somebody to listen to
them and be comforted. I can easily read through their actions, body
language or facial expression how they feel at the moment, simply, “I can
read between the lines.” Oftentimes, I am caught in a situation in bringing
about motivation and encouragement on how to boost a person being felt
belittled. It happened a week ago as an experience, a teacher came to me for
an advice because she felt belittled. What I did, I boosted her morale, gave
motivational and inspirations points that would help her lessen the burden
of what she felt. With this, I felt more of being a friend that they can trust
with their problems and their issues. As a result, it helps me achieve more
when working with others in different settings including home, workplace,
and society in general.
