Abstract
This article contributes to the research on social intelligence, emotional intelligence and cultural intelligence by examining the perspective of these intelligences in India, as well as providing insights into how they are valued in Indian organizations. Interviews were conducted in Mumbai, India of individuals who previous completed a survey these intelligences, as well as leadership and cultural exposure. These interviews indicate that while Indians understood the survey items in the previous research, they do not clearly distinguish social intelligence and cultural intelligence. Furthermore, while they see these intelligences are generally considered important, they do not appear to be formally utilized in their organizations. While the sample for this study was small, the findings provide some important insight since many organizations are considering assessing and training these intelligences. If perceptions of these vary in India, organizations have to consider how this may impact their assessment and training.
