Knowledge and Intelligence

OPEN MIND IQ explicit

Lecturing: explicit knowledge learning is to fill a barrel Experiential: immersion journeys, action projects, empathy walk embodied knowledge Deep immersion practices: transformative storytellling, total immersion journeys deep inner knowing

K2: self-reflective knowledge: reflection-onaction

Training: practice+feedback learning is to reflect on exercise Case clinics, reflection papers, dialogue walk: reflection-onembodied knowledge Deep inversion practices: circle work guided journaling, deep inner self-knowing

K3: Selftranscending knowledge: reflection-inaction

Creative practice: e.g. theatre learning is to improvise in real time Embodied Presence Practices; Performing personal intention statements; inspiration-in-action Stillness practices: room of silence, solo in nature, contemplative practices intuition-in-action
