contents <p>Abstract:<br>In modern organizations, the concept of intelligence is often narrowly defined, focusing primarily on cognitive ability and formal qualifications. Howard Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences offers a broader framework, recognizing that individuals possess diverse cognitive strengths, including linguistic, logical-mathematical, spatial, bodily kinesthetic, musical, interpersonal, intrapersonal, and naturalistic intelligences. Applying this theory in Human Resource Management (HRM) provides managers with tools to better understand their employees’ unique capabilities and to align talent with organizational needs. MI-informed HR practices enable more effective recruitment, role design, training, and performance management, while supporting leadership development and team collaboration. By integrating multiple intelligences into HRM, organizations can enhance employee engagement, leverage diverse skills, and foster innovation, ultimately contributing to sustainable competitive advantage in knowledge intensive environments.<br>Keywords: Multiple Intelligences, Human Resource Management, Job Design, Leadership.</p>
