Abstract

The research of human intelligence includes a broad range of theories and a variety of different answers regarding most of the fundamental questions in the field, including the following questions: What is the nature of intelligence? Is it a constant innate cognitive trait or is it a skill that can be improved? Is intelligence a single uniform entity or is it a multiplicity of independent abilities? What is the intelligence that most influences the degree of success and in what fields?. The responses of most of the researchers depend largely on the type of intelligence studied, as a result of a variety of approaches and schools – developmental, cognitive, psychometric, emotional-social, practical, and so on. In contrast, the starting point of this study is the success itself, with the goal to examine whether there is one ability that is shared by all those who succeed over time and whether and how it can be improved - Since on the one hand, people with completely different abilities succeed in attaining significant achievements and on the other hand, only some people with similar abilities achieve lasting success. The main conclusion as examined during a decade of counseling and support of more than five hundred different people is that all those who achieve ongoing success have a good level of ability in results-focused self-management – and this is results intelligence. The study shows that every individual has a different profile of
intelligences that includes his main abilities – and results intelligence is the ability to manage all the other abilities in favor of the achievement of the maximum results of success desired over time. Since results intelligence is fundamentally a management ability and management addresses ways of thinking and doing and includes the ability to plan and implement a variety of actions so as to achieve different goals, it exists in everybody, even if at different levels of
awareness, skill, or maximization. On the basis of the theory of management by objectives from the approach of Professor Peter Drucker (as presented in the continuation) in life, as in business, management is the factor that most influences the degree of success over time – and management can be learned. Thus, it is possible to learn how to develop the level of results intelligence and thus to significantly improve the chances of reaching the maximum of success in a variety of areas of life. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to create the model of the development of results intelligence so as to enable individuals to identify their main abilities and to learn how to leverage them and manage themselves, for the benefit of the achievement of their desired success and goals.
