Episode notes

The word experiential intelligence came from the past president of the American Psychological Association, Robert Sternberg. What do you mean in really simple, non-jogging language by Experiential Intelligence? So our experiences can shape us and deliver subconscious assets that we are leveraging and also subconscious limitations that maybe get in our way.

Have you ever felt you had more life experience and talent than your job requires or even allows you to use? Today I've invited Soren Kaplan to the show to talk about how you can better tap into that experience yourself, and also in the people around you. I've long believed that what we know about other people is less valuable than what we don't know. That there's an enormous amount of potential under the surface. What's not on someone's resume, what's not in their current job title, and our ability to mine that experience in ourselves and in other people is, Kaplan believes, a predictor of our success. First we had IQ, then we had emotional intelligence, or EQ. This is XQ, Experiential Intelligence.
