“The most effective leaders are all alike in one crucial way: they all have a high degree of what has come to be known as emotional intelligence. It’s not that IQ and technical skills are irrelevant. They do matter, but…they are the entry-level requirements for executive positions.”

How Emotional Intelligence Coaching Works

Let’s partner to create focus about your emotional intelligence competencies. EQ can be measured – more accessibly and less controversially than IQ – and unlike IQ, it can be substantially strengthened and developed.

The process begins with administering an Emotional Intelligence inventory profile (EQ-i 2.0) or an Emotional Intelligence 360 survey (EQ 360).

This is followed by a debrief of your results to gain clarity and perspective of what it all means.

We then create a development plan supported through coaching sessions, and work towards unleashing your untapped potential, increasing your leadership effectiveness, and becoming aware of your emotions and their impact so you can propel higher.
