Emotional Intelligence (EI or EQ) 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, and use emotional information in an effective and meaningful way. EI skills are critical skills for leadership, team effectiveness, work performance, influence, work/life balance and wellbeing.
Why choose qpeople and EQ-i 2.0®?
The qpeople team are highly experienced in creating and delivering leadership development solutions. Compared to years gone by, leadership today is rapidly evolving to manage an ever-changing work landscape – it is more complex and demanding, yet subtle and nuanced; therefore it requires our leaders to be highly skilled operators.
To help leaders operate in the modern world with more diverse, remote and hybrid working people than ever before, we have embedded relevant, practical and experiential content into our leadership development solutions to support leaders to become more emotionally effective, purpose-driven and compassionate.
We use the EQ-i 2.0® (Emotional Quotient Inventory) as it is a powerful instrument to measure and improve emotional intelligence skills. It was the first scientifically validated assessment tool for emotional intelligence skills (1997), and research demonstrates that it has extensive workplace applications and a high correlation with workplace and leadership performance.
The EQ-i 2.0® is also the most widely used, bestselling, most flexible, most studied, cost-effective measure of emotional intelligence available. The EQ-i® assessment tool was developed by Dr Reuven Bar-On, and is recognised as one of the most scientifically valid tools for measuring EI. There are more books and resources based on the EQ-i 2.0® model and it is available in more languages than any other measure of EI/EQ.
