Mike Watson

Undergraduate Director, Department of Retailing

Mike Watson is empowered and inspired by the integration of seemingly disconnected elements in the service of others: these elements include spiritual intelligence, leadership, design, integrative thinking and higher education. His purpose of inspiring others to stand in their brilliance is the outcome of weaving together these elements. Let me expand on the elements and concepts:<br/><br/> Spiritual Intelligence/SQ (the elevation of all personal intelligences through self-awareness, compassion and the desire to serve something greater than yourself).<br/><br/> He purposefully utilize SQ to guide and inspire collaboration and interdependent teamwork to accomplish challenging goals in a variety of settings: academic, peer-to-peer, and organizational and through various platforms: lectures, keynotes, workshops, podcasts, and community design projects.
