emotional intelligence 2.0: EQ-i 2.0, EQ360, eq-i strategy
What is Emotional Intelligence 2.0 and why does it matter?
Emotional intelligence 2.0 (EQ-i 2.0) is a set of emotional and social skills that influence the way we:
- perceive and express ourselves
- develop and maintain social relationships
- cope with challenges
- use emotional information in an effective and meaningful way.
The overall result of well-developed emotional intelligence is healthy emotional and social functioning, which is linked to well-being (and happiness), which in turn impacts how we lead and perform. Assessing and evaluating an individual’s emotional intelligence can help establish the need for targeted development programs and measures. This can lead to dramatic increases in the person’s performance, interaction with others, and leadership potential. Supplemented by other sources of information, such as interviews, the EQ-i 2.0 can make the recruitment and selection process more reliable and efficient. A sound recruiting process leads to higher retention rates and reduced turnover which can result in significant cost savings, improved employee effectiveness and increased morale.
Emotional Intelligence 2.0 assessments and workshops
The EQ-i 2.0 Self-Assessment: Assess, Predict, Perform.
Emotional Intelligence 2.0 is a scientific approach to leadership development
For almost 20 years, consultants and organizations have trusted the science that underpins the EQ-i 2.0® (and its predecessor the EQ-i 1.0) to help improve human performance. The EQ-i 2.0 is a psychometric assessment which measures emotional intelligence (EI) and how it can impact people and the workplace. Being the first scientifically validated measure of EI, coupled with research from premier organizations, means you can count on the EQ-i 2.0 to add robustness and accuracy to your talent management initiatives. EQ-i 2.0 is a Level B assessment which means it can only be given by a certified administrator.
Applications of emotional intelligence include:
- Leadership Development
- Selection
- Organizational Development
- Executive Coaching
- Team Building
- Student Development
- Strategic Implications
EQ360 is the gold standard for Multi-rater Assessments
The Multi-Rater Assessment or 360 degree Assessment combines your personal assessment, based on your personal perceptions, with the perceptions of others who know you well. It requires both you and others to fill out the assessment.
The available reports are:
