Robert J. Sternberg is a renowned psychologist who overcame early academic struggles to become a leading researcher in intelligence, creativity, and relationships.
Inspired by a supportive teacher, he graduated from Yale with honors.
Sternberg developed the Triarchic Theory of Successful Intelligence, which posits that intelligent behavior results from balancing analytical, creative, and practical abilities.
His theory emphasizes adaptability within sociocultural contexts and the importance of leveraging individual strengths while addressing weaknesses.
Sternberg's work spans multiple psychological domains, including theories on thinking styles, love, and wisdom.
