Abstract
ABSTRACT The late Marcia Gentry sought equity in the identification and instruction of the gifted. This was a noble and proper goal: Inequity has been a problem in the field of giftedness since the very beginning. A related challenge that feeds into the inequity problem is that educators often look for the wrong thing. What matters is not merely how gifted a person is, or how many gifts they possess, but rather what they do with those gifts. Many of the problems in today’s world derive from people who are gifted and then use their gifts for selfish and even narcissistic ends. A model is needed that takes into account one’s deployment of gifts, not just one’s possession of them.
