The intelligence of a group isn’t just the sum of individual IQs. The factors influencing the collective intelligence of a group are mainly based on the social intelligence skills of the individuals in the group.
This is the conclusion of the MIT study “Evidence for a Collective Intelligence Factor in the Performance of Human Groups,” published in 2010 by Professors Anita W. Woolley, Thomas W. Malone, Christopher Chabris, Alex Pentland, and Nada Hashmi.
Join us for an exclusive interview with the distinguished professor Anita W. Woolley, one of the minds behind the groundbreaking MIT research. This study challenges traditional notions about intelligence and group dynamics.
Stunning Insight: What determines the intelligence/quality of the group depends highly on the proportion of women in the group. Equal speaking time and the capacity for social sensitivity make communication fluid. It is this communication and the quality of the connections between the members of the group that will distinguish a group in terms of its intelligence and its ability to solve a problem.
