  14. Yet another captivating, brief review of the five minds! • A disciplined mind: one that has mastered at least one way of thinking • A synthesizing mind: takes information from disparate sources and analyzes it • A creating mind: breaks new ground • A respectful mind: notes and welcomes differences between humans and groups • An ethical mind: ponders the nature of one’s work and the needs of the society

  16. Scenariosactivity 3(Role plays of the five minds!) • Instructions: For each scenario, we need the specified number of volunteers to improvised a given situation, making use of the five minds that Gardner discussed. • Each improvisation is to be heavily based on one specific mind, however, participants are strongly encouraged to utilize more than one mind in their performance. • Audience members will then discuss how the minds were portrayed.

  17. Previous leadership themes • In our previous readings, we have learned about a variety of leadership strategies: • Machiavelli’s totalitarianism • Hanh’s urging to live by the five virtues • Fullan’s business-oriented model of leadership • Wheatley’s quantum model of leadership

  18. So, what is the relationship between those themes and Gardner’s five minds?(Closing discussions) • In your groups, please take 10 minutes, and use your synthesizing and disciplined minds to discuss and answer the following: • When it comes to leadership, why are the five minds important? • Analyze each mind with your group to find out how they are linked to our previous readings. • Now, Draw a linking picture to add to the “story-lines,” from previous presentations, at the back of the room.

  19. Questions and/or comments!?
