Indonesian Employees' Writing Skills, Linguistic Intelligence, and Critical Thinking Levels

摘要

Former studies have shown that the ability to write should be supported by high reasoning capability called critical thinking. Separately, previous studies also show that the ability to write must be accompanied by proficiency in the language called linguistic intelligence. This paper presents research into Indonesian employees' writing skills and its relationship with critical thinking and linguistics intelligence level. The method used is descriptive quantitative by taking a sample of 137 people who contributed in a global competitiveness test called Global Talent Program. The finding shows there is a significant relationship between the employees' writing skills, linguistic intelligence and critical thinking levels. The results of the study are expected to motivate each individual in a learning organization to sharpen his/her critical thinking skills and linguistic intelligence so as to improve one's performance in communicating his/her writing in order to be recognized internationally.
