Presentation: Spiritual Intelligence: Moving to Second Tier

The momentous leap to second tier is supported by maturing our spiritual intelligence. Key SQ21 competencies and practices support SQ development, which act as a springboard toward later stages. We look at specific competencies such as complexity of inner thought, discernment between ego and higher self, breadth of time perception, and keeping higher self in charge, as related to stages in Cook-Greuter’s ego development model. The focus will be on the capacities required to move to post-conventional stages of 4/5 (self-questioning), 5 (self-actualizing), and 5/6 (construct-aware), with special emphasis on the movement between 4/5 and 5. We will also discuss practices which mature a person’s spiritual intelligence competencies to support the “momentous leap.”
