Abstract

Information management (IM) is a vital skill set in the area of knowledge and capability that should be possessed by IT professionals. However, the existing educational programs in academic institutions tend to overlook this aspect of training but focus instead on IT capabilities. This study aims at performing a comparative analysis on some multiple intelligences (emotional intelligence, social intelligence and cultural intelligence) of IT/IM students in international scale. The evaluative instrument was reviewed by the scholars in information management research domain and further examined in pre-test interviews prior to the formal administering of the questionnaires to students in the three countries. According to the results of analysis, the differences in emotional intelligence and social intelligence of subjects are significant. However, there is no significant difference in cultural intelligence and emotional intelligence. The findings of this investigation will contribute toward the formulation of future educational programs and selection of IT personnel by corporations when dealing with cross-cultural education and employment.
