Big Heart Intelligence (BHI) is an exciting new frontier of research and practice which involves actively cultivating the visionary, energetic, compassionate, and wise capabilities of the human heart, with the imagination and genius of the mind, and the raw grit and courage of the gut—activated together.
Here’s a practice which you can validate BHI for yourself:
Step # 1: Define any significant organizational challenge where a wise decision could be critically important—where you may want to See the Big Picture.
Step # 2: Write your recommended decision down using purely your business analytic mind.
Step # 3: Now relax and consult your Heart with patience and kindness and ask the same question. Write down the answer.
Step # 4: If you note a discrepancy between mind/brain and heart, try now asking both simultaneously. Are you aware that the heart is in constant communication with your brain. Explore whether the answers you receive are different in some ways.
Step # 5: Check out your joint mind/heart action with your gut; see if they are congruent.
Step # 6: Try following the same protocol with your team members together.
Step # 7: Keep a Log of these BHI decisions and especially the outcomes. They will provide proof and confidence that this new frontier is of great personal and strategic value.
